The Honor 9X Pro is heading to Europe more than two months after it launched in China. However, when it does, there will be a major difference between the European version and the one sold in China.

According to Sudhanshu Ambhore (@Sudhanshu1414), press renders of the Honor 9X Pro heading to the Old Continent, show the phone has its fingerprint scanner on the back. Yes, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and not a side-mounted one like the Chinese variant.

As at the time of writing, we do not know why Honor is making this change. We also cannot say if this will be the same for the model launching in other markets such as India.

Other than the change in the position of the fingerprint scanner, we have not learned of any other differences. Based on that, the Honor 9X Pro should arrive in Europe with a 6.59-inch FHD+ display, a 16MP pop-up selfie camera, and a 48MP + 8MP + 2MP triple camera setup.

It should have the Kirin 810 processor with 8GB of RAM, though there is a chance it may get a 6GB RAM version too. Storage should also be 128GB or 256GB. Other features are a 4000mAh battery, Bluetooth 5.0, an audio jack, and EMUI 9.1 based on Android 9 Pie. The press renders show the phone will be available in Magic Night Black and Phantom Purple.

There is still no date for the launch but once we know, we will share it with you.
