Last week, a report said that Honor 50 will arrive before the Huawei P50. Today, GSMArena has come up with an exclusive report regarding the launch and design of the Honor 50 series.

As per the report, the Honor 50 series will launch in May 2021. They haven’t mentioned a specific date or if it’s towards the beginning or far end of the month. However, the report includes what they claim to be a yet-to-be-shared teaser image of the launch.

As you can see below, the poster doesn’t even have HONOR words on it. However, it has the “THE 50 Series” and “May 2021” timelines. This tagline appears on an image that shows two camera sensors with an LED flash in a silhouette image.

Further, the report says that they received design sketches of the device. It shows a pill-shaped dual-ring pill-shaped camera design similar to the one that appeared on recent Huawei P50 renders. Out of the two cut-outs, the lower one is said to house two sensors.

Also, the renders have a ring on the side that the report guesses as a snap-on-filter that attaches externally via magnets.

Besides, Twitter user Teme (特米)(@RODENT950) says that he doesn’t believe them to be the Honor 50 series. He also mentions an earlier leak about the Honor V40 leak that said it would have a watch-like rear camera layout. The leak didn’t turn out to be true as the Honor V40 has a rectangular camera layout.

Just like Teme, we too aren’t sure if these are how the Honor 50 would indeed look like so take them with a pinch of salt. That being said, the sketches do gives a vibe about the Honor V40 Lite Luxury Edition and we will have to wait and see if Honor makes this a standard design for devices in the future.

Update Apr 20: Apart from Honor 50, Teme also says that Honor Play 5 is also launching next month. The company unveiled the Honor Play 5T earlier today in China.
