Where you will be able to buy it

Likely one region first Based on how this product line usually launches

This line usually starts in one market and travels later, if it travels at all.

Honor normally launches in China first.

No report so far has named a specific country for this one. That is normal early on: the market is usually only spelled out close to launch.

Who called it right

Now that the real date is known, everyone who made a prediction gets marked. "Too late" means they said a later date than what actually happened.
