Chinese handset maker Huawei is expected to launch yet another Android smartphone later this month, the Honor 7. The device was rumored for quite a while, but Huawei released the first video teaser for it only today.

The company has already announced that Huawei Honor 7 will be unveiled on June 30, but only in China. Still, that doesn't mean the handset won't be launched in other countries as well.

In fact, we can safely assume that Huawei would want to bring its premium smartphone to a larger audience, which is why it will make it available worldwide.

But what makes the Huawei Honor 7 so special? Well, first of all, the smartphone is made of metal, which gives it a premium look and feel.

There's no word on the pricing options yet, but the company is expected to also launch an improved version of the Honor 7, which will pack 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal memory, GizChina notes.

Apart from that, we only know what was leaked last week, and that includes the fact that Huawei Honor 7 will ship with Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system right out of the box, along with Emotion UI 3.1 on top.

On the inside, the smartphone will pack a HiSilicon Kirin 935 chipset, which will be complemented by 3GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. The premium version will come with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, as mentioned earlier.

We also know that Honor 7 might sport a 5-inch capacitive touchscreen display that will support full HD (1080p) resolution. There's no mention of Corning Gorilla Glass coating, though.

Last but not least, the smartphone is said to boast a 13-megapixel camera on the back with autofocus, LED flash and video recording, as well as a 3,280 mAh battery inside.
