Honor has launched a new phone called Honor 8A Prime. New just in the name though, as the Honor 8A Prime is merely a rebranded version of the Honor 8A Pro that went official almost a year ago. Honor 8A Prime is powered by the low-end MediaTek Helio P35 SoC and the rest of the hardware is decidedly entry-level as well. Moreover, the company has also launched the Honor 8A Prime with a price tag that is almost 30 percent lower compared to the asking price of last year's Honor 8A Pro.

Honor 8A Prime price

Honor 8A comes in a single 3GB + 32GB storage variant that costs RUB 9,990 (roughly Rs. 9,600) and is listed on the official Honor e-store in Russia. The phone comes in Blue, Emerald Green, and Midnight Black colour options. However, the Huawei sub-brand is yet to reveal whether the Honor 8A Prime will make it to other markets, including India.
