Honor's first 5G phone will launch globally without Google's apps or services

Honor has announced that its first 5G phone, the Honor View 30 Pro, will be launching worldwide during a live stream earlier today. Powered by a Kirin 990 5G chipset, the phone has a 6.7-inch 1080p display with a hole-punch selfie camera and a 4,100mAh battery.

The 9X Pro still has a triple-camera setup consisting of a 48-megapixel f/1.8 main camera, an 8-megapixel f/2.4 wide-angle camera, and a 2-megapixel f/2.4 depth assist camera. It's also th
