Metal-made Huawei Honor 7 could be launched in June

It looks like Huawei's Honor 6 and Honor 6 Plus will soon get successors which might (unsurprisingly) be called Honor 7 and Honor 7 Plus.

According to Chinese website Mobile-dad, the Honor 7 will be released starting late June. A model with 3 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory should be available for around $320 (1,999 CNY), while a more premium variant, with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage space, is expected to cost around $435 (2.699 CNY). The latter might be available starting early July.

Reportedly, the Honor 7 is made out of metal, runs Android Lollipop, and sports a 5-inch 1080p display. The handset may also feature a fingerprint scanner, a 13 MP rear camera with OIS, an octa-core Kirin 935 processor, and a 3280 mAh battery.

As for the Huawei Honor 7 Plus, this could have a 5.5-inch 1080p display, a Kirin 950 processor, and a dual-lens rear camera. The handset might not be launched before the fourth quarter of the year.

While there are several photos that allegedly show the Huawei Honor 7 and Honor 7 Plus (see below), for now we can't confirm their authenticity.
