HONOR Philippines recently dropped its “most successful product to date,” the HONOR 400 5G. With a first-day sale that was absolutely jampacked, viral videos all over the internet, new brand ambassadors, and even a ridiculously generous Rolex and Hermes giveaway, you might be asking: was all that just a gimmick? Well, according to the crowd and tech experts, it’s a resounding “nope!”
Mr. Art Samaniego, IT Head of Manila Bulletin and Co-founder of ScamWatch Pilipinas, shared his own crazy journey getting his hands on HONOR’s newest viral smartphone. “I saw it from the media launches and media activities, and when I saw the phone, nakita kong maganda talaga siya. I said, I need to try this one in real life kaya um-order ako. I wanted to buy it because I believe in the phone after I tried it. So, it’s a really great device for the price. I pre-ordered on June 18 in SM Sta. Rosa,” Mr. Samaniego recounted.
When asked about his experience during the chaotic first-day sale on June 28, he explained, “I went to SM Sta. Rosa around 10 or 10:30 AM, so it had just opened. I told my wife, because we had somewhere else to go after, ‘this will be quick, give me 30 minutes’. When we got to the HONOR store, I saw it was already full of people. There were bollards. I was surprised why there were so many already, then I counted the people there. I counted about 80 at that time and I took a picture. After a while, more and more people came that they needed to remove the barrier they had put up,” he began. “Someone helped me and said, ‘Sir, you need to get a number. I’m already number 90, because there were people who lined up even earlier’,” he shared his surprise, especially since this was only 30 minutes after the mall opened!
“One thing is for sure; it’s not a gimmick. We, at HONOR, are also shocked with the massive turnout of HONOR 400 5G first-day sale. We are overwhelmed and we are very grateful for everyone who supported us all the way from the teasers. We are committed to bringing only the best for our Filipino HONOR fans so expect nothing less from us,” stated HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng, confirming that the overwhelming response was genuinely unexpected.
