Honor 700 Pro hits Geekbench with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and 16GB RAM before November 13 launch

An unreleased Honor phone has reportedly appeared on Geekbench, and the listing is being linked to the upcoming Honor 700 Pro. The result is being treated as confirmation of the chipset earlier leaks had already assigned to the Pro model. Honor has not confirmed the benchmark or officially named the 700 Pro’s processor.

Honor 700 Pro Geekbench listing and chipset details

The listing is labeled HONOR FAP-AN00 and was uploaded on November 11 using Geekbench 6.7.1. It recorded 2,862 points in the single-core test and 9,397 points in the multi-core test.

The entry lists a Qualcomm SM8845 platform, which is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, with eight cores arranged as two cores at 3.80GHz and six cores at 3.32GHz. System details accompanying the result also point to an Adreno 829 GPU. The tested unit ran Android 17 and reported 14.78GB of memory, consistent with a 16GB RAM configuration.

Honor has already confirmed that the Honor 700 Pro will be offered in 12GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 512GB memory options, so the Geekbench sample matches the top configuration. FAP-AN00 was among the three model numbers that recently cleared 3C certification ahead of launch, though Honor has not publicly mapped that code to the Pro name. The assignment rests on earlier tips that only the Pro would use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.

The Honor 700 Pro is the follow-up to the Chinese Honor 600 Pro, which launched in May with a MediaTek Dimensity 8550 Elite chipset, a 6.57-inch OLED display, a 200-megapixel main camera, and an 8,000mAh battery. Leaks around the 700 Pro point to a similar 6.57-inch 1.5K flat display, a 200-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto, and a battery of around 9,000mAh.

Honor has confirmed that the Honor 700, Honor 700 Pro, and Honor 700S will launch in China on November 13. Official product pages already list colors and memory options, but pricing and a full spec sheet are still under wraps.
