SEOUL, Sept. 15 (Korea Bizwire) – China-based mobile phone makers are likely to shake up the mobile industry in South Korea, a stronghold of the smartphone industry, as Chinese brands are gearing up for pushing in this nation well known for Samsung and LG.
The rumor that Huawei Honor 6 would be released in South Korea turned out to be true as Honor 6 (Model: HW-H60-J1) has acquired the certification of conformity from the National Radio Research Agency (RRA) in South Korea, RRA reported on September 11.
Honor 6 costs around US$300-400, equivalent to 310,000-443,000 won, outside China. The budget phone is less than half the cost of the Korean smartphones that have nearly identical specifications, yet probably edging them out in a few categories.
The mobile phone industry expects that the Honor 6 will debut in the Korean market this October since a product that has acquired the certification of conformity tends to be released within one month.
