Earlier this month, a smartphone called TD Tech N8 Pro made its debut in China. The device went out of stock within days of its release and was rumored to be discontinued. Now, it is said that this handset will hit the shelves once again at the end of the year.

TD Tech N8 Pro is a rebranded HUAWEI nova 8 Pro with 5G connectivity. In fact, TD Tech Co., Ltd. itself has confirmed to a media house that the components for this phone are purchased from Huawei, reports ITHome.

At the same time, the company has also revealed that this smartphone is not discontinued. Instead, it is now mainly aimed at corporate users and will be restocked next month. Interested customers will get a chance to purchase it once again from the end of December 2021. The handset will be sold on JD.

A Bloomberg report recently exposed that Huawei is looking to license its smartphone designs to Chinese partners. TD Tech Co., Ltd. is listed as one of these partners. This suggests TD Tech N8 Pro is probably just a trial and we might see more such rebadged Huawei phones in the future.

According to ITHome, TD Tech is a telecom equipment manufacturer, which originated as a joint venture between Nokia and Simens. It is presently a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD Tech Holding Limited.

Huawei and Nokia Hong Kong are investors of this parent holding company. Huawei’s rotating chairman Xu Zhijun is the director of this firm.
