Honor has officially announced the release date of its upcoming Magic8 series smartphone. Following recent hints, the company has now confirmed that the new model in the series will be called the Honor Magic8 Pro Air.


Honor had previously announced an upcoming smartphone that would combine “both Pro and Air features.” The smartphone will be unveiled in China on January 19th.
