But, there is another feature about the Honor 9X Pro which has leaked online. This new leak comes from a Twitter account named Huawei Club and according to it, the Honor 9X Pro will be powered by a HiSilicon Kirin 980 SoC. It is a new chipset and it comes with an integrated NPU that would also power the Huawei Nova 5 smartphone. As of now, it is not confirmed which among the two of the specifications will be the correct one for Honor 9X Pro. The Honor 9X Pro and the Honor 9X are expected to be launched later this year. The Honor 8X is the predecessor of the upcoming Honor 9X. Since Honor 8X was launched in China in September last year, there is a possibility that the company will unveil its upcoming Honor 9X at the same time frame this year as well. We could also see the launch of Honor 9X Pro alongside the Honor 9X.
