The HONOR 90 series is set to have its global debut next month as the company announced a launch event through its global Twitter account. Unveiled last month in China, the lineup consists of the HONOR 90 and the 90 Pro, with the former getting an upgraded chipset while the latter retains its predecessor’s.
Taking place in Paris, the international version of the HONOR 90 will be launched along with pricing, configurations, and availability. However, it’s unclear if the 90 Pro will also be present seeing as how only the vanilla model is seen in the announcement poster.

The HONOR 90 sports a 6.7-inch OLED display with a peak brightness of 1,600 nits and a 120Hz refresh rate. Powering it is a 5,000mAh battery with support for 66W wired charging. For connectivity, both phones support 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2.
It runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC from Qualcomm with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, but of course, the global version might come with different configurations. For the cameras, the rear setup consists of a 200MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide that doubles as a macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. Both the vanilla and Pro model contain a 50MP selfie shooter.
On the other hand, the 90 Pro has a slightly bigger 6.78-inch OLED display with the same peak brightness and refresh rate. It uses a similar 5,000mAh battery but it supports much faster 90W wired charging.
Under the hood, it runs on last year’s Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 with up to 16B of RAM and 512GB of storage. Camera-wise, it features a 200MP primary sensor, a 32MP telephoto lens with OIS, and a 12MP ultra-wide.
While the HONOR 90 series will be launching globally, there’s no word yet on when it will be coming to Malaysia. For reference, the basic variant starts from CNY2,499 (~RM1,612) while the Pro has a starting price of CNY3,299 (~RM2,130).
