Honor X60 series design teased ahead of October 16 launch

The Honor X60 series will be unveiled in China on October 16. Ahead of the launch, the company has teased the design of the upcoming smartphones. The lineup will include at least two variants and they are confirmed to support satellite communications. More details about the phones are likely to be announced in the days leading up to the launch. Recently, leaked details about the Honor X60 base had surfaced online. The alleged device is expected to succeed the Honor X50, which was launched in China in July 2023.

Design and features of Honor X60 series

The design of the Honor X60 series was teased by the company in an official after on Weibo. The phones are seen with circular camera units at the rear. One of the handsets arrives with a similar camera island design as the previous Honor X50. Two telephones are shown with a round module surrounded by an outer ring.

The front panel of one of the handsets shows a possible dual front camera setup. Notably, an earlier hands-on leak of the Honor X60’s base panel showed a single punch-hole cutout at the top of the screen. It is likely that the Pro version of the Honor X60 could have dual cameras on the front. The smartphone also appears to have a curved display.

In another Weibo post, Honor announced that the X60 series will support satellite communications. The phones in the teasers appear in white, green and orange. They are confirmed to run on MagicOS 8.0 and feature 108-megapixel main cameras. The lineup will launch in China on October 16 at 7:30 PM local time.
