Precisely, he says that Honor's standard charger is reportedly the same (HW-110600C0x) as Huawei's. Previously, the Huawei 66W charger received China's 3C certification back in July. It had model number HW-110600C00 and rated 11 V / 6 A. This charging technology later debuted in the company's latest flagship Mate 40 series.
Although Honor is now virtually independent of Huawei, it looks like the company wants to use some of the latter's technologies even after the separation. Either way, Honor V40 is likely to be powered by MediaTek SoC Dimension 1000+... Previously, there were rumors that the device will be equipped with a 120Hz AMOLED display and a 50MP Sony IMX700 RYYB camera sensor. We will wait for new leaks in the coming days.
