Honor has now made it official—the upcoming Honor X80 Pro Max will be the industry’s first smartphone with a peak screen brightness above 10,000 nits. The news comes just days after Honor confirmed the phone’s June 22 launch date and revealed its massive 11,000mAh battery.
A new poster shared by Honor shows the X80 Pro Max will use a 1.5K (2788×1280) panel running at 120Hz, with its brightness rated 67% higher than the Honor X70. The bezels around the screen are also slim, measuring just 1.3mm.
Honor also confirmed the phone will run on its new Hummingbird Architecture 2.0. According to the company, this update can make short-video playback up to 40% smoother, and it also handles memory cleanup in the background to keep the phone running smoothly over time.
On durability, the X80 Pro Max has earned SGS’s Gold Label Five-Star rating for drop resistance, surviving falls from up to 3 meters. To back this up, Honor is rolling out a free screen replacement service for drop damage, something the brand says is a first for the industry.

The phone goes official on June 22 at 7:00 PM. However, most of its specs are out, thanks to a steady stream of leaks.
Its 10,000 nits display is said to measure 6.8 inches and will house an 8MP front camera. The back will have a 50MP rear camera with OIS support. While the body and frames will likely be made out of plastic.
