As per the IDC report, Huawei became the fourth mobile phone vendor in the history to ship over 100 million smartphones in a year. This shipment has a fair share of affordable handsets in emerging markets, combined with flagship models too.

Reportedly, the sub-brand of Huawei, that's Honor has contributed a lot to this growth and now the company is taking some major steps to make stronger foothold with Honor range.
