Honor, formerly a Huawei spin-off brand, launched the Honor 60 series in China on Wednesday, November 30th. There are two phones to talk about—the Honor 60 and more powerful Honor 60 Pro. Unlike the Honor 50 series, there is no “SE” model this time, at least not now. Also, to be clear, the Honor 60 series phones—like Honor 50 series—will support Google Mobile Services aka Google Play Store and Google apps outside of China should Honor launch them globally.
