Honor Tech, a new player in the Indian tech landscape, has been introduced. This fresh brand will be authorized to distribute Honor-branded smartphones within the Indian market. Initially established as a subsidiary of Huawei back in 2013, Honor made its way into India in 2014, focusing on affordable smartphone offerings. However, due to the impact of US sanctions on Huawei, it exited the Indian market in 2020.
Following its acquisition by Chinese firms, it continued its global presence while introducing sporadic fitness trackers and tablets in India. At present, Honor is gearing up for reentry into the Indian market, with plans to unveil its inaugural smartphone in September. The strategy for reestablishing the Honor brand in India is outlined here.
