Under Huawei, Honor was supposed to launch budget and affordable premium devices. However, after becoming an independent brand , unlike Huawei, it can not only launch flagship devices but can also source chipsets and technology from US companies.

The company is rumoured to be working on multiple premium devices apart from the the Honor 50 . These devices include a clamshell-design foldable device and a tablet styled foldable smartphone .

With the restriction lifted, the company can design and launch devices aimed at the global audience, however, it needs to be seen how aggressive the company is in its newfound life. There are some speculations that Honor is still receiving help from Huawei as its phones draw a close resemblance with the ones from its erstwhile parent company.
