Huawei has shipped over 1 million devices in its C881X lineup. Today, we have come across yet another device in this lineup which will offer decent specs for a relatively low price tag.

The Huawei C8818 recently hit TENAA revealing a few set of pictures and the full tech specs. The phone will support only CDMA networks and not GSM, yet will feature dual SIM dual Standby, which is a rarity in these types of devices.

As for the processor, the Huawei C8818 will come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 615 64-bit octa-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz with 2GB RAM on board. There will be 8GB of internal storage which can be further expanded up to 32GB via MicroSD. Up front, the Huawei C8818 will feature a 5-inch 720p display along with a 5MP camera on top. At the back, there will be a 13MP shooter. The phone is said to run on the Android 4.4 KitKat version of the OS.

Design wise, the Huawei C8818 looks a lot like the Huawei Honor 4X. You can clearly see the round edges, top left camera placement and many other distinctive characteristics that’s directly carried forward from the 4X. So, the C8818 could be CDMA variant of the device. However, the phone is slightly thicker with the measurements, 143.5 × 71.9 × 8.9mm. On the other hand, the Honor 4X was 8.7mm thin. But, this particular device weighs around 162 grams which is less than the 165 gram 4X.

As you can see, the Huawei C8818 packs in good specs in well designed body. The phone could be priced anywhere around 1000 Yuan which would make it a great deal for customers looking to take advantage of 4G on CDMA networks.

Given that this is a CDMA edition, we don’t think the phone will ever be releaed outside of China. But what do you think about the phone, if the price is indeed $160.

It is important to point out that Huawei will release a high-end version and low-end version of the Huawei Honor 4X. The biggest difference between the two is the memory. The high-end version will has 2GB RAM while the low-end version will have 1GB RAM. Of course, their prices will also be different. Reports say that the low-end version will only cost 799 RMB (129.31 USD), while the high-end version will cost 999 RMB (161.68 USD). It looks like Huawei is trying to have them compete with Xiaomi’s Red Mi Note.

However, someone in an internet forum said that pre-sales for other versions of the Huawei Honor 4X have already begun in Huawei’s official website. These versions use the Snapdragon 410 and cost 999 RMB, while the so-called high-end versions may use the Kirin 620 but actually cost 1299 RMB (210.23 USD).

Huawei’s Honor subsidiary recently posted four posters in their Weibo account showing the number “4” and the letter “X.” They are obviously promoting the upcoming Huawei Honor 4X. They also have slogans such as “Transparency that cannot be found anywhere else”, “Irresistible”, “Very affordable”, and even “highly intelligent.”

The “transparency” must refer to how this phone supports all bands and that the user can surf the web everywhere. The “irresistibility” probably means that this phone has a very beautiful and exquisite appearance, as well as support for dual-SIM and powerful camera specifications. The “very affordable” obviously refers to the price, while the “intelligent” part implies that it will use a powerful processor. Many believe that the Huawei Honor 4X is the recently-leaked Honor Che1-CL20 which supports a 6-mode network, and TD-LTE, LTE-FDD, TD-SCDMA, WCDMA, CDMA (1x, EVDO), and GSM.
