Honor and Qualcomm deal signals a new beginning for Honor, and new phones for us

Newly independent phone maker Honor has announced a partnership with Qualcomm, confirming it will release a smartphone with the new Snapdragon 778G mobile processor in the near future, and a flagship phone with a top-flight Qualcomm chip at a later date. It's an important step forward for Honor — which was sold off by former owner Huawei in late 2020 — in its efforts to return to the global phone market.
