Honor wide phone tipped to have 8,000mAh+ battery and 200MP camera

Digital Chat Station claims Honor's upcoming 6.39-inch wide-screen phone will pack a battery of 8,000mAh or more, plus a 200MP triple camera.

Key points

  • Digital Chat Station says Honor's wide-screen phone has a battery of 8,000mAh or more.
  • The 6.39-inch phone is tipped to have a 200MP triple camera with a periscope lens.
  • Honor has not announced the phone; the details come from engineering samples.

A prototype Honor phone with a short, wide body is said to hold over 8,000mAh and a 200MP camera. The source is Digital Chat Station, a tipster. The screen is said to measure 6.39 inches, the same as Huawei’s Pura X View, the phone that started this format.

If the battery figure is right, Honor would beat Huawei on capacity in a category defined by its slim, pocketable shape. The leak includes no thickness or weight, so how Honor fits that much cell into the body is an open question.

The rear is said to hold three cameras, including a big main sensor and a periscope telephoto, plus the 200MP unit. Which of them the 200MP chip is meant to be, main or zoom, is left unclear. The prototypes reportedly run on a Snapdragon processor, and the specific model is not named.

In October the same tipster named Oppo and Honor as the Android makers set to chase Huawei in this format. Honor leaks from the same source have leaned on big batteries before: earlier tips gave the Honor 700 series a 9,000mAh cell.

Large batteries are the main selling point here, since the thin wide shape leaves little room inside, and the 200MP sensor with a periscope lens would put the phone among the better-equipped camera phones in its class. Both are claims about engineering samples rather than finished hardware.

The details come from prototypes, so battery size, camera layout and chip can still change before launch. Honor has made no announcement, and a name and launch date would be the first real checks on any of this.
