Honor 30 family hits Russia - its first market after China
by YordanHonor introduced a trio of flagships earlier this year - Honor 30, Honor 30 Pro, and Honor 30 Pro+. 1.5 months after the launch in China, the lineup is finally going international and the first market to get them is Russia.
However, only the Honor 30 and Honor 30 Pro+ are currently available - there’s no mention of the Honor 30 Pro at all.
The Honor 30 arrives with Kirin 985 chipset, flat 6.53” display, and a 40 MP main camera. Only one of its memory options is currently up for pre-order - 8/256GB. The initial price is RUB39,990 - that’s about $565/€510 or 15% more expensive than it is in China.
The Honor 30 Pro+ is priced at RUB54,990, which is the equivalent of $777/€700, once again, for an 8/256 GB memory combo.
While these prices seem high, Honor Russia offers plenty of gifts - every device comes with Honor Magic Earbuds, and a bumper case or a tripod selfie stick. Also, if a purchase is made until June 30, you get the equivalent of up to RUB10,000 in Yandex goods - up to RUB5,000 for Yandex.Eda (the Russian equivalent of Uber) and the same equivalent for Yandex.Taxi (a local cab service).
The Russian platform also offers 90-day free trial of Yandex Plus and three movies from KinoPoisk HD.
