Three UK has announced that it has signed an exclusive deal with Honor to sell the Honor 6+ smartphone in the UK.
Some Honor-branded devices are already available in the UK through sites like Amazon, but now the Honor 6+ will be available for purchase in-person at select stores. As part of the new and exclusive tariff partnership, Three will be the only network offering contracts for the phone, though you will still be able to buy it on a SIM-free basis for just £250.
The Honor 6+ features a 5.5-inch 1080×1920 IPS-Neo screen, 1.8GHz octo-core processor, 3GB RAM, and 32GB of internal storage, 8MP front-facing camera, and a dual-lens 13MP camera on the back with a built-in aperture lens.
Commenting on the partnership with Honor, Sylvia Chind, head of devices and products at Three, said:
We are delighted to be bringing such an innovative and exciting brand to the UK market. The Honor 6+ has already built a strong fan base and it’s a smartphone that can seriously compete with some of the higher end devices out there, minus the hefty price tag.
We are thrilled to be able to offer our customers this premium and stylish handset on our reliable network so they can truly benefit from all its great features and we are looking forward to supporting its success in the UK.
Lars Weisswange, chief engagement & communications officer at Honor Europe, said:
This partnership with Three UK demonstrates that Honor has quickly achieved a strong foot hold in the UK within the first four months of launching as a new brand. Three UK and Honor are both brave and innovative brands, which will encourage great synergy and continue to provide fans with high quality and great value devices.
The Honor 6 + will be available on-contract from April 1.
