The Huawei Honor 9 is not new, but it did just arrive on the Old Continent. People in mainland Europe are facing a €450 price tag for the 4GB/64GB model. British prices start at £380. “Start” as there’s also a beefier 128GB model (Update: it seems that Europe is not getting the 128GB model with 6GB RAM).

Pre-orders will soon go live on the EU branch of Vmall while sales will begin sometime next month. Besides the UK, the Honor 9 will be available in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland.

Huawei has amped up the audio reputation of the Honor 9 by partnering with Monster, the headphone manufacturer, to make the Honor Purity equalizer. Grammy Award winner Rainer Maillard has prepared custom playback styles for Huawei Histen – an “ultra-wide 3D sound technology”. Plus, MTV Trax will deliver new music daily.
