HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, March 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Honor, a young, trend-setting smartphone e-brand, has announced its official arrival in Vietnam at the GEM Center, Ho Chi Minh City, on March 7, with the release two of its unrivaled handsets, the Honor 9 Lite and Honor 7X. The young brand also shared a list of exciting strategic partnerships and invited two strategic partners, IGG and Bigo Live, to share their visions on the collaborations with Honor.

The collaboration also fosters strategic resources exchange between the two lead industry users to forge creative marketing initiatives.
Honor has also established strong relationships with many other young and adventurous partners in Vietnam. At the launch event last week, Honor partnered with Cube TV, another leading live-streaming gaming community, to invite the renowned gaming team QTV to experience the Honor 7X and Honor 9 Lite. The QTV team was blown away by Honor 7X's incredible gaming capability and Honor 9 Lite live-streaming experience. At a recent gaming tournament, held in partnership with VNG, the distributor of the top-chart battle royale game Rules of Survival, Honor 7X was the "weapon-of-choice" and the most sought-after prize.
