After some rumors and speculations, finally, the Honor brand enter in Nepal. About a couple of weeks ago, there were rumors that brand might enter in the market at any time. Now, it is official. Actually, at first, I was quite excited about the brand, however after seeing the pricing, my excitement drowned. Nevertheless, let’s talk about the honor smartphones price in Nepal, specifications, features, and availability.
Even though the Honor is online retailing, just like OnePlus, in Nepal, it will be available through the traditional retailers/offline shops. Going through offline retails, the Honor smartphones price in Nepal is high, which is obvious. Though, it’s not only the reason for such pricing. Kartos Technologies Pvt. Ltd. Is the official distributor of Honor brand in Nepal. For now, there will be four different variants, initially.
Honor 7S
This is the cheapest among the four of the device. It is available at INR Rs. 6,000 in India. It comes with 5.45 inch IPS LCD screen with 1440X720 pixel resolution display. Inside, there is MediaTek MT6739 quad-core CPU. It runs on Android 8.1 Oreo.

Honor 8X
With glass on both side and Kirin 710 chipset, 4GB of RAM make its more desirable and blue color makes this device a head-turner. However, after hearing the price of the device, my head turned another side. If we look at the specs, we recommend you buy Nova 3i instead because it’s all same inside and better deal.
