Honor Magic 10 tipped with 200MP LOFIC camera, tandem OLED display

Honor is reportedly working on a new 200MP main camera with LOFIC technology for its next flagship series. The information comes from tipster Smart Pikachu, who has shared two separate posts on Weibo related to the phone.

In the first post, the tipster says Honor has customized a particularly large 200MP main camera sensor with LOFIC technology. However, the post doesn’t reveal its physical size or specify which Honor Magic 10 model will get it.

The camera leak comes shortly after reports that Honor is testing four OmniVision sensors, including the 200MP OVB0D. Smart Pikachu hasn’t named the sensor behind the new claim, so it’s unclear whether the customized 200MP unit is related to any of those four sensors.

What we know so far

LOFIC stands for Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor, a technology that helps image sensors capture a wider dynamic range. In practice, it cuts down on blown-out highlights in high-contrast scenes, like a backlit subject or a street at night.

Honor has been experimenting with the technology for some time. Back in March, we reported that the Honor Magic 9 Pro could arrive with two 200MP rear cameras. One of the prototypes reportedly used either an OmniVision OV52B or the OVB0D sensor with LOFIC.

The tipster’s second post talks about display. Smart Pikachu says Honor is evaluating dual-layer OLED panels, and it will be used in the upcoming Honor Magic 10 and tablets.

Dual-layer means tandem OLED technology, which stacks two emissive layers instead of using a single one. This arrangement can improve brightness and extend panel lifespan.

The Magic 10 series is still a year away from launch, though it’s usual for rumors to surface all year round. We will keep you updated if anything new pops up.
