Honor 8C was powered by Snapdragon 632 chipset with up to 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. Honor 9C may run on an in-house Kirin chipset, or a Snapdragon 700 series chip.
The storage on Honor 9C can be expanded with an external microSD card. In terms of optics, Honor 8C came with a dual-camera setup, while Honor 9C either may feature a three or four camera system at the back. The device will pack a battery around 4,000mAh with support for fast charging.
