Honor Robot Phone hits import markets with a steep European price tag

The Honor Robot Phone is now available for import in Europe and other markets, but imported prices are notably higher than China’s. In China the base 12/512 GB model starts around 10,000 yuan and the 1 TB variant around 13,000 yuan; imported EU prices shown by retailers range from about €1,740–€1,790 for the base model to roughly €2,203–€2,385 for the 16 GB/1 TB variant, with tax included at some shops (e.g., AverageDad) and unclear at others. Retailers listing the phone include Trinity Electronics, Giztop, and AverageDad, with shipping beginning August 19–20. Expect ongoing restrictions for use outside China (possible limited network bands, no eSIM, limited English support, WearOS compatibility issues) and reduced warranty/return options compared with EU purchases. A global launch is anticipated, likely at even higher prices.
