As can be seen, Li Kun has said that Honor’s 200-megapixel telephoto camera king will be available soon. This Weibo post was released after reliable tipster Digital Chat Station shared following details about the Honor Magic 8 series, which is expected to break cover in October in China.

According to the source, the camera module of the Honor Magic 8 series will continue to be centrally aligned, although the flash placement has been altered compared to the previous generation. The setup includes a dToF sensor for depth measurement and an additional small, unidentified sensor, which remains undisclosed for now. The module itself is large, signalling significant upgrades, particularly for the Pro variant.

He added that the Honor Magic 8 Pro is tipped to feature a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera backed by a large sensor. The tipster noted that three brands this year are expected to adopt similar high-resolution telephoto lenses, placing Honor in direct competition with rivals. The main sensor’s base size is said to match that of Vivo’s latest Pro flagship, making it clear that Honor intends to challenge its competitor directly in imaging performance.

In terms of design, the prototype shows colour options including a classic black-and-white combination, along with a newly introduced glazed finish that adds a premium look. The comparison between Vivo and Honor is already being set up by enthusiasts, with October expected to reveal which company’s image tuning proves more effective.
