Honor has had a busy smartphone year so far. From flagships and 10,000mAh battery phones to a foldable and, recently, even a gimbal camera phone, the company has done it all. And if a new rumor is to be believed, the streak won’t stop for the rest of 2026.

A new leak from tipster Digital Chat Station claims the Honor is preparing several new smartphone launches between September and the end of 2026. The lineup is expected to include flagship phones, gaming-focused devices, and more affordable models.

The first major launch is the Honor Magic 9 series, which has been confirmed for September. According to previous reports, the series could use a 2nm Snapdragon processor and feature camera technology developed with ARRI. 

Honor could then turn its attention to gaming with the Honor Win 2 series. It is reportedly planned for October, and the leak mentions a Snapdragon SM8975 (8 Elite Gen 6) chipset under the hood.

Previous reports also claim the phones could come with a 10,000mAh+ battery, a built-in cooling fan, and a 6.89-inch OLED panel offering a 2K+ resolution and a 185Hz refresh rate. 

Honor 700 series, Power 3 and X series also launching before 2027

Honor may also expand its mid-range lineup before the end of the year. Digital Chat Station mentions the Honor 700 series, along with new phones under the X and Power 3 series.

The company has already been pushing battery capacity in its affordable phones. For example, the recently launched Honor X7e comes with a large 7,500mAh battery at a budget price. The leak claims these mid-rangers will keep chasing bigger batteries, with some models reportedly setting new capacity records for their price bracket.

Put it all together, Honor could launch four or five major smartphone series in just around four months. This would make the second half of 2026 a busy period for the company.

However, it is important to note that Honor has not officially confirmed this release schedule. So treat the details as a leak until the company says otherwise.

The post Honor to launch new phones under five major smartphone lineups before 2026 ends appeared first on Gizmochina.

Honor has just launched the futuristic Robot Phone in China and is scheduled to launch its next flagship, the Magic 9 series, on September 28 in the country. Apart from the Magic 9 lineup, the brand is said to be working on several other smartphones, and recent Weibo posts by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station give an idea of what to expect from them.

Honor phone with rear display in the making

According to DCS, Honor is reportedly evaluating a native rear-display design for a slim, camera-focused smartphone. The secondary screen is said to measure around 1.7 inches, while the flagship line is currently not expected to adopt this design.

While he has not specified the name of the device, the upcoming Honor 700 series may feature this rear display. Based on previous release patterns, the 700 lineup may break cover in November or December this year in China.

In a separate Weibo post, DCS mentioned that Honor is said to have started trial production of a new battery with a rated capacity of 11,790mAh and a rated energy of 43.86Wh. Its typical capacity is expected to be around 12,000mAh, making it another ultra-large battery being tested by the company.

The tipster has not revealed which upcoming Honor phone will use it, but there is a possibility that it may power the upcoming Honor Power 3, which may break cover by early 2027. This phone is expected to feature the next-generation 3nm Dimensity 8600 chip.

Honor’s wide foldable phone in the works

DCS also claims that Honor is exploring a wide-screen foldable, although the project has reportedly not entered formal development yet. If approved, the company is considering a larger-screen version, as the two existing wide foldable phones on the market reportedly feature displays in the 6.3- to 6.4-inch range. Previous reports have claimed that it will pack a 20-megapixel main camera, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chip, and a 7,000mAh battery.

Apart from these devices, Honor is said to be accelerating the launch of the Win 2 series of gaming-focused phones. It is speculated that the Win 2 models may debut as early as October in China.
