Honor recently unveiled a couple of smartphones in the Honor 30 series. First came the Honor 30S which debuted as the first Kirin 820 5G SoC powered phone at March-end. Last month, the Huawei sub-brand announced Honor 30, Honor 30 Pro, and Honor 30 Pro+. A Weibo handle that is known for leaking information on upcoming Huawei / Honor phones claims that a new Honor 30 series is coming soon.
As can be seen in the above screenshot, the tipster claims that the Honor 30 series is not done yet as it appears that there is one more handset waiting to go official. He is of the view that the handset may break cover by June or July.
The Honor 20 series that debuted last year included devices such as Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro flagship phones, Honor 20S upper mid-range device, and Honor 20 Lite mid-range handset. The successors for the Honor 20 series have already gone official. The Honor 30S arrived as the successor for the Honor 20S. Hence, it appears that the next Honor 30 series could be the successor model of the Honor 20 Lite. Hence, the device that is speculated to launch in June / July could be the Honor 30 Lite handset.
At present, there is no word on the specifications of the Honor 30 Lite. The predecessor model was fueled by the Kirin 710 chipset. Hence, it is likely that the Honor 30 Lite could be driven by the Kirin 810 SoC. The Chinese firm is unlikely to reveal information on the rumored Honor 30 series phone. The reason behind that it will be focusing on the launch and sales of the Honor X10 series that is scheduled to get announced on May 20.
