Huawei has kept silent about this second device. However, there are rumors that it will be called the Honor 8 Max and will probably be an upgraded model of the Honor 8.
According to Tech Spot, the Huawei Honor 8 Max is expected to have a 6.6-inch display with a 2560 x 1440 resolution. At its heart is the octa-core Kirin 950 system-on-chip with a processor speed of 2.3GHz and 3GB of memory. The storage space is reported to be 32GB with possible support for expandable storage.
While the dual camera setup is slowly getting traction in the smartphone world, this setup is not expected on the Huawei Honor 8 Max. Instead, the device will have a 13-megapixel rear facing shooter and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera.
A leaked photograph believed to be that of the Honor 8 Max shows that the device has a fingerprint scanner sensor. This leak also indicates a that the device will run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
If rumors are true, the Huawei Honor 8 Max, once released, will go head-to-head against the Xiaomi Mi Max. The entry level model is believed to be priced around $230, while the high-end model will have a price tag of $300.
According to BGR, Huawei is slated to unveil the Honor 8, and possibly the Honor 8 Max, on July 11.
