Today, Honor held its IFA 2022 event where the brand announced three new products—Honor 70, Honor MagicBook 14, and Honor Pad 8—to the global market. The company also introduced its new “Dual Flagship Strategy” with the aim to bring its upcoming foldable and flagship smartphones to Europe and other regions around the world.

However, the company didn’t unveil any foldable device at the event. It’s possible that Honor may bring the Honor Magic V to the European market or the tech giant may even announce an entirely new model.

Now if we talk about the newly launched products, Honor 70 and MagicBook 14 have already debuted in various countries. But the Honor Pad 8 is the company’s first tablet available outside of China. Let’s have a closer look at the price, specifications, and features of the newly launched electronics.

Honor 70

The handset is fueled by a 4,800mAh battery with 66W fast charging support. On the software front, it runs Android 12-based Magic UI 6.1 out of the box. However, the device may soon get the Magic UI 7.0 because the company has already unveiled it at the IFA event.
