Huawei unveils V9 aimed at game lovers

Huawei Technologies Co Ltd, the world's third-biggest smartphone maker, unveiled a new handset on Tuesday targeting mobile gaming enthusiasts and virtual reality camera lovers.

The Honor V9 came out as the company's sub-brand Honor said it will focus more on services and new technologies.

That came as the group deals with surging component costs and competes with Samsung Electronics Co Ltd in the high-end market.
