Other rumored features include fingerprint scanner, USB Type-C port and 3000mAh battery. The V8 is expected to be priced at CNY 2,000 ($308 | Rs. 20,000).

Honor is expected to release the successor of Honor 7i, the Honor 8i at the same event as well. The phone will have an unique flip camera design of its predecessor, and will be aimed at women. Ahead of V8 launch, Honor will unveil the mid-range Honor 5C in China on April 28.
