Back when Huawei announced its Honor 4C mid-range smartphone, the device came with good specs but with just 8GB of storage. This was quite disappointing as in this age, 8GB is often not enough for majority of users. So, it was welcome news when Huawei teased last week that Honor 4C was going to get a storage upgrade.

Well, when the  company said that it was going to upgrade the storage to 16GB, we expected the pricetag to be around 50 Yuan more. However, surprisingly, Huawei has decided to offer additional storage for no extra cost. Yes, the Honor 4C with 16GB of storage will be available for the same price tag as before i.e. 799 Yuan.

We think its a great move from the company, keeping the same price as before. Now, the Honor 4C adds brings more value for your money. However, we are sure existing users of the 4C won’t be too happy with this news. They got just 8GB at 799 Yuan.

As for the other specs, the Honor 4C comes with a 5-inch 720p display, with 2GB of RAM and kirin 620 octa-core chipset under hood. There’s a 13MP camera at the back and a 5MP shooter up front. Finally, there’s 2550 mAh battery at the back.

So what do you think about Huawei’s decision to offer double the storage at the same price?
