The soc should be 6582 instead of 6589. A big competitor for hongmi

6589 too common d. lol

the price in malaysia how much?

Currently still in pre order only if not mistaken, the official launch should be today or tomorrow if not mistaken.

hope to see this phone in malaysia. pls make it cheaper than g700.

Seeing how hongmi being jack up here, just pray hard la dude

when launched?

currently only available for those which pre order only through vmall and jd.com

I'm looking for a new smartphone as i just bricked my old cellphone samsung galaxy 2. Recycled the phone and gave all my oem batteris and an mpj extended battery to a friend so now I in need of a new phone. My budget is around $200 so I plan to have a china cellphone cuz i think it has lower price with high performace. Thinking of huawei hornor 3c...Anyone share real world experiences of this phone please? Whether better than my old s2 in performace? Million thanks.

Huawei Honor 3C is definitely a different device from Samsung's device. But the launch date is unknown yet.

82 or 89 better?

82 is a revise from 89, slight bump in speed.

Currently its only available for online order only. Seems like honor is following xiaomi footstep to release phone online only for the moment after branching off from hua wei.

Yup. Agree. But not much different...

Honor 3C wcdma version is now available only in 2gb ram and 8gb ROM

according to china price, this 2gb phone will price below RM700.
bigger battery than Huawei G700. better camera. dual sim.
it's been a month now but still no news of launch in Malaysia. the demand in China for this phone staggering high.
Huawei really compete with xiaomi. their advantage, bigger factories=more productive.

I m still waiting this phone out, thinking to ship from china direct already.

This phone is basically an upgraded g700 at a lower selling price on hardware and EMO UI. From Honor progress since last December till now, its has no intention at all to release Honor branded phone out of china. Its proven by the fact where huawei media X1 which just announced in MWC Barcelona, which cost 399 euros with LTE support, but in china, there a same 7 inch phablet with same spec with the brand 榮耀 X1 (Honor X1) selling in Huawei Vmall for 1799 yuan with 3g WCDMA connectivity. So for Huawei branding ones you going to pay rm1.8k+ with 4g and Honor ones just cost you rm900+ with 3g, where the rest of the phablet spec is all the same. You could ask yourself if the LTE connectivity is worth rm900 extra or not.

So for those which wait or hope that it will be available locally through huawei, I suggest you guys get it directly from china or through online store such as taobao or ali express. Honor 3C WCDMA version is available around 210 usd in ali express which included the cost of fedex shipping

And be warned that Honor branded phone might not have GApps installed by default, as its currently only meant for china market only.

if you can bear the warranty. :-)

nice information. if that so, i need to wipe this item from my list. huawei g700 only. no other phone try to compete. so sad. 5" below phone, dual sim, 2gb ram. (big battery is a bonus)

To be honest I dont worry much on warranty issues, as I dont think phone will spoil easily unless its your own mistake, such as drop. From my experience of more than 15 years with handphone, never had a phone went for warranty. Even my 7 years old SE W960i still working good now, just battery getting weak only

As for the GApps part, I not too sure if its present by default, since certain phone will come with different os customization. Take zopo and thl for eg, those sold in china came with own customize os, such like yun os for zopo and tang dou for thl, but those sold in international market. WCDMA version will usually come with GApps. So its best to check up with the seller on this.

If you willing to spend bit more, you could find octa core phone at around usd 260+. I just order myself 1 thl t200c for 262usd with shipping.
