First spotted at China’s TENAA certification body a couple of weeks ago, the Honor 5C has been officially unveiled at an event in China. Honor is Huawei’s budget-minded sub-brand and most recently launched the reasonably priced 5X (reviewed here). Replacing the 4C, the Honor 5C offers a 5.2-inch Full HD display, 13MP rear camera, and runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow for 899 Yuan ($139).

As you can see from the specifications sheet below, the Honor 5C packs a punch considering its price. If the included fingerprint scanner is of the same caliber as the one found on the 5X, it’s a pleasure to both setup and use. There’s no mention of NFC support sadly, which could be a deal-breaker if you are wanting to use Android Pay on the device.

With its $139 price tag, the Honor 5C packs a some decent hardware. The phone would appear to have some sort of metallic construction, probably similar to the 5X‘s which consisted of a mix of metal and plastic. As yet, there are no details on whether Huawei plans a global roll-out of the Honor 5C. What are you thoughts on the Honor 5C?
