Huawei’s Honor subsidiary unveiled two new smartphones, the Honor 8X and the Honor 8X Max, in China this week. And the company has already announced lofty ambitions for sales of the Honor 8X, even before they hit the stores. During a recent media interaction, Honor’s President Zhao Ming revealed that the company has set a sales target of 20 million units for the Honor 8X.

The Honor executive claimed that with a starting price of 1,399 Yuan, there is hardly any device from other companies in the same price bracket which offers similar hardware and specs. Ming said the Honor 8X offers the best design and specs at its price point and will achieve the sales target, riding on the success of its predecessor.
