Honor and Vivo might be on the same wavelength with their next gen smartphones. The Vivo X200 series is expected to feature the X200 Pro Mini as a new compact flagship phone, and now, a new rumor hints that the Honor 300 could be another small smartphone as well. So here’s everything we know so far.
Honor 300: New Competition to Galaxy S25 and iPhone 16?
The new rumor arrives from known tipster Smart Pikachu on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). The social media post claims that the upcoming Honor 300 series is expected to bring a new small sized smartphone model. While the name of this device wasn’t revealed, it could be the base version in the new premium lineup. If the Honor 300 is the brand’s new small phone, it would likely compete with the handful of similar models in the market.
This includes the Motorola Edge 50 Neo, Google Pixel 7a, and the Galaxy S23 FE. To recall, the Honor 200 series only features the Honor 200, Honor 200 Pro, Honor 200 Lite, and Honor 200 Smart. Back in August, we also covered a report that shared renders of the Honor 300 Pro and its unique rear design. Considering the Honor 200 series launched back in May, the Honor 300 series will likely launch around the same time next year.
This means that we still have a long while before its release and also shows a new rising trend. Smartphones with small screens lost in popularity to large screen devices. Even in the premium segments, Samsung’s Galaxy S24 and Apple’s iPhone 16 are some of the only compact flagship phones. So it seems brands are once again making new smartphones that target those who prefer smaller phones. It is worth noting that this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take this news with a pinch of salt for now and stick around for more updates.
