The smartphone was unveiled recently.

Peter Zhai, President Huawei India Consumer Business Group said, “We are thrilled to launch a phone which can be termed a global first, as the Honor 9i is the only phone so far to boast of two dual cameras and FullView FHD+ display. As front runners in bringing breakthrough technology as well as great features at attractive prices, we remain committed to bringing best-in-class devices and services to our users in India."
The Honor 9i cameras produce pictures with 45-degrees projection, making every shot a ‘cover shot under butterfly lightning’.

The 16 MP dual lens back camera produces pictures with vivid details, according to the company.
P. Sanjeev, Vice President Sales, Huawei India-Consumer Business Group said, “Honor is Huawei’s global e-brand. In India, Honor pioneered dual camera phones over the last three years. Our team has spent extensive time studying what consumers in this segment prefer and we have worked to raise the bar each and every time, creating industry’s new bench marks. Today with the launch of Honor 9i, we have ushered in 4-camera technology which is widely acclaimed for its excellent selfies and low light photography capabilities. We view Honor 9i as a never-before opportunity for consumers who wish to experience an outstanding product."
The new smartphone from Honor features a 5.9” display and effectively retains a 5.5” form factor, the company said.
The company elaborated that the Honor 9i sits perfectly in one hand, while 18:9 aspect ratio offers a more comfortable split-screen experience for users to effectively multitask, allowing two apps to be run side-by-side to increase productivity.
On the back of the Honor 9i, the flashlight, fingerprint sensor, USB socket and dual-lens camera all lie on the central axis of the phone.
On the front, the dual-lens camera sits on the right, a reflection of the camera flash and distance sensor on the left. Achieving this level of near-perfect symmetry is an intelligent and purposeful design achievement.

The exclusive launch of the new Honor 9i marks an important milestone in our journey with the brand.”
