A built-in rear display, a 12,000mAh battery, and a wide foldable with a 200MP camera. If the latest leaks hold up, Honor’s end-of-year lineup is going to be a lot to keep up with. According to Gizmochina, at least four new Honor devices are in the pipeline, and the details are already raising eyebrows.
The headliner right now is the Honor 700 Pro series. Tipster Digital Chat Station says it will have a native rear screen built directly into the back panel, a 200MP main camera, and a celebrity endorsement from Xiao Zhan. An earlier leak put that rear display at 1.72 inches, paired with a 6.57-inch 1.5K front screen. This is worth paying attention to because the current Honor 600 Pro uses a magnetic mini display that attaches to the back as an accessory. The 700 Pro would ditch that clip-on approach and make the second screen a permanent part of the phone itself. That’s a meaningful step up, not just a spec bump.
Honor has a fairly predictable release rhythm in China, and Digital Chat Station’s timing points to a November or December launch for the 700 Pro. That lines up with what we’ve seen in past years, so this one feels like the most credible and closest to real of everything in this leak batch.
The mid-range X line is also getting a new entry. DCS says it will carry a 7-inch screen and a very large battery. He stopped short of naming a specific capacity, but Honor has reportedly started trial production of a cell that typically sits around 12,000mAh. No one has officially confirmed which phone gets that battery, so connecting it to the X model is still a guess. But if that number is real, it would be one of the biggest batteries in any mainstream phone on the market right now.
Then there are the two wide-format devices, and these are where things get genuinely interesting. The first is a wide foldable that has surfaced in leaks more than once. Previous reports say Honor is testing it with a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chip, a 7,000mAh battery, and a 200MP main camera. Wide foldables are still a pretty small category globally, but Chinese brands have been pushing the format hard, and Honor jumping in here makes sense given the competition from players like Huawei and Oppo.
The second device is a wide, non-folding phone that apparently supports some kind of roll-up mechanism. DCS did not explain how that would work in practice or what it means for the display. So for now, it is more of a curiosity than something to get excited about. Wide-body straight phones are already a niche within a niche, and adding roll-up functionality without any context is hard to evaluate.
None of this is official. Honor has not confirmed any of these devices, and every spec and timeline here comes from leakers. Still, the 700 Pro series is clearly the furthest along, and it is probably the first one to get an actual announcement. Keep an eye on November.
