The HONOR X8a has made its global debut. Positioned just below the recently launched X9a, the X8a loses its 5G connectivity with its MediaTek Helio G88 but comes at a lower price point and even includes a 100MP main camera. It also comes with a 6.7-inch FullHD+ 90Hz screen, a 5MP ultrawide shooter, and a 4,500mAh battery with 22.5W SuperCharge.

The HONOR X8a is priced starting at GBP 220 (PhP 14,500) and will come in Cyan Lake, Titanium Silver, and Midnight Black color variants. Nearby countries like Malaysia have also started listing the smartphone on their official websites. Given that HONOR has aggressively pushed their smartphones in the Philippines, we expect that it’s only a matter of time until the X8a arrives locally.
