Honor has officially announced the launch date of its upcoming smartphone, the Honor Power. According to details shared on Honor’s Weibo and corroborated by popular tech blogger Experience More, the device will be unveiled on April 15 at 7:30pm (local time) in China. This smartphone marks a significant shift for Honor, being the first model released under its new strategic roadmap.
Honor Power said to pack 7,800mAh battery
The Honor Power is being pitched as a “light-outdoor” smartphone, balancing the durability of rugged devices with the sleek usability of mainstream smartphones. According to the above-mentioned tech blogger, it will feature a massive 7,800mAh battery—possibly the largest in any mainstream phone this year—designed to comfortably handle prolonged outdoor usage. While its design appears to favour a larger screen with a dual punch-hole setup similar to the Honor number series, it’s unlikely to carry high-end facial recognition hardware like the Magic series.
Honor has been teasing the Power series since the beginning of this month with what initially seemed like a playful prank, claiming the phone’s battery life is so long it could charge other devices. However, with official confirmation now out, it’s clear that the company is serious about entering the long-battery niche.
It is speculated that the Honor device with DVD-AN00/AN80 that was recently certified by China’s 3C certification platform could be the forthcoming Honor Power smartphone. The certification revealed that it will support 80W fast charging.
This launch also marks the first major release since CEO George Zhao announced the brand’s shift towards becoming a global AI-centric terminal ecosystem company. The Power series represents Honor’s commitment to blending outdoor functionality with urban usability—optimising for communication, reliability, and AI features.
With its focus on battery, connectivity, and a lighter build than traditional rugged phones, the Honor Power could be the go-to device for users seeking ultra-long battery life without the bulk. There’s no clarity on whether the Honor Power will be released in markets outside of China.
