If you picked up a Huawei Nova 9 and an Honor 50, you would immediately notice one thing: the two smartphones are exactly… identical. Yes, that's right, given that the two Chinese electronics multinationals have decided to market the same product, among other things presented a few days apart from each other.
But let's try to clarify, starting with saying that Honor was a "branch" of Huawei, since the company had been sold to the parent multinational historically banned from the US market.

This then in turn resold the product to a consortium of Chinese resellers and distributors, who then returned to the European market. And so that in a few days the new Honor 50 will be presented, a phone of excellent quality, and which is part of the great return to our country of the same company after months of absence. The above question, however, is not answered for now, namely: how is it possible that Huawei's Nova 9 is identical to the Honor 50? The two phones have the same weight, the same size, the same battery, and many of the technical specifications are the same, two phones that appear to have come from the same design and the same factory. Obviously there are some differences, with Huawei having a camera with its 50 megapixel sensor, while on Honor we have a 108Mp sensor from Samung; the processor also changes, with Huawei having a Snapdragon 778 4G.

“Taking a big company like Huawei - comments Dday.it trying to answer this dilemma - and trying to separate an integrated company like Honor was with Huawei in a few months is not easy. It's not like taking a MacDonald's and turning it into a Burger King, where you just change the sign. Splitting Honor from Huawei, even after the formal sale, is a time-consuming process that runs parallel to product development times that fall into a multi-year cycle. Honor 50 and Nova 9 are children of a project born when Honor was still Huawei ". In any case, Honor guarantees, the next products will have their own specific identity, while remaining faithful to the company's mission, that is, quality smartphones with a not excessive price. “Honor is no longer Huawei - concludes Dday in his examination - but it cannot and must not erase the legacy of a past that still belongs to the brand. Honor will have to be good at demonstrating that it can do, on its own, what it did with Huawei: the means are there, the engineers also and partnerships, such as the one with Google and Qualcomm that make the phones a little less "Chinese" and a little more 'western' ".
