Honor’s Win and Win RT, featuring Snapdragon 8-series chipsets and a 10,000mAh battery, have received good reception in the Chinese market. Now, the brand is working on the Honor X80 with a similar battery size at a more affordable price. A reliable tipster has shared key details about what to expect from the next X-series phone.

Honor X80 key specifications tipped

According to the tipster, the Honor X80 will have a massive 6.81-inch OLED LTPS panel with a flat design and rounded corners. It will offer a 1.5K resolution and possibly a 120Hz refresh rate.

The device is reportedly being tested with a new-generation Snapdragon 6-series chipset, possibly the SM6850 platform. It remains to be seen whether the chip will be called the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 or something else. This leak contradicts a previous claim by the same source, wherein he mentioned that the phone will be powered by a Snapdragon 7-series chipset.

As mentioned above, the X80 will pack a massive 10,000mAh battery, but there is no information about its charging capabilities. This battery has already been approved by China’s 3C authority.

In comparison, the Honor X70, which debuted last year in July, came with a 6.79-inch OLED 1.5K 120Hz screen, a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chip, and an 8,300mAh battery with 80W wired charging. Its 512GB version also offered wireless charging support. At present, there is no information about the X80’s launch timeframe.

The new leak further claims that Honor plans to standardize 10,000 mAh-class batteries across the X, Power, and WIN line-ups, targeting longer endurance as a key selling point. Additionally, the next-generation Magic series may receive a significant upgrade later this year, potentially featuring a larger 6.85-inch display and more substantial hardware enhancements.

The post Honor X80 to pack a new Snapdragon 6-series chip, 10,000mAh battery appeared first on Gizmochina.

Honor is the only mainstream smartphone brand to have launched 10,000mAh battery phones. In December 2025, it unveiled the Honor Win and Win RT with flagship-grade specifications, both packing a 10,000mAh battery. Earlier this month, the brand introduced the Honor Power 2, a mid-range phone equipped with a 10,080mAh battery. A new leak reveals that the company is now gearing up to launch yet another 10,000mAh phone, and this one is expected to be the most affordable yet.

Honor X80 key specifications, price tipped

This upcoming Honor phone with a 10,000mAh battery is the Honor X80, as per a new leak by tipster Digital Chat Station. According to the tipster, it will house a massive 6.81-inch LTPS OLED screen with support for a 1.5K resolution. In terms of display design, it will be a flat panel equipped with rounded corners.

Under the hood, the Honor X80 will feature a Snapdragon 7-series chipset, which does not appear to be the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, as the tipster described it as a low-power variant. Therefore, it seems likely that the device may be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4.

The tipster did not reveal any additional details about the Honor X80 but claimed that it would cost around 1,000 Yuan (~$140). He also added that other brands are expected to launch 10,000mAh battery phones by the end of this year.

There is no information regarding the Honor X80’s launch timeframe. To recall, the Honor X70, equipped with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset and an 8,300mAh battery, was announced in July 2025. However, at present, it remains unclear whether the X80 will be unveiled in July this year or much earlier in February by following a six-month release cycle.

The post Upcoming Honor phone with 10,000mAh to cost ~$140, key specifications leaked appeared first on Gizmochina.

Honor looks ready to roll out its next performance-focused smartphone. The upcoming Honor X80 has just passed a key certification in China, hinting that its official launch isn’t far off. And the biggest takeaway from the listing is the size of the battery Honor plans to squeeze inside this device.

According to the China Quality Certification (CQC) database, the phone was approved under certificate number 2025010915830460. The paperwork confirms the X80 will feature a massive 10,000mAh battery. That’s a huge upgrade over the Honor X70’s 8,300mAh pack, which already earned a reputation for going well beyond a full day of use.

With this new bump in capacity, the X80 is shaping up to be one of the longest-lasting smartphones in its class — a device built for people who hate battery anxiety or spend hours gaming, streaming, or staying connected on the go.

The certification also confirms 5G support, which isn’t surprising at this point, but still checks one important box on the spec sheet. Other details, like the processor and display features, remain unconfirmed for now. That said, earlier reports have suggested the X80 may bring improved performance and possibly some enhancements aimed at mobile gamers — continuing a trend Honor has been pushing through the mid-range lineup.

The Honor X70 was a success story thanks to its durability and standout battery life, managing impressive early sales after its launch. With the X80 stepping things up further, Honor appears confident in doubling down on long-lasting devices that don’t require a mid-day recharge.

Since certification tends to come shortly before an official announcement, we may not have to wait long to see the X80 fully revealed. For buyers who want stamina above all else, this one could be worth keeping an eye on.

The post Honor X80 certification confirms extra-large 10,000mAh battery appeared first on Gizmochina.

There have been reports that Honor is working on not one, but two phones powered by a massive 10,000mAh battery. The first one is the Dimensity 8500-powered Honor Power 2, which is expected in Q1 2026. Today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station published a Weibo post to reveal the details about the other 10,000mAh battery phone.

Honor X80 key specifications tipped

According to the tipster, Honor’s other phone with a 10,000mAh battery will feature the Snapdragon 7-series chip and a massive 6.8-inch 1.5K OLED screen. Speaking further about the display, the tipster mentioned that it will feature a flat design with rounded corners.

In related news, a Chinese tech blogger has revealed that a new battery designed for the alleged Honor X80 has received approval from the country’s 3C certification platform. It has a rated capacity of 9,755mAh and appears that its typical value will exceed the 10,000mAh+ mark.

Therefore, it appears that DCS could be talking about the Honor X80, which is expected to replace the Honor X70 that debuted in July 2025. To recall, the X70 packed an 8,300mAh battery with 80W wired and 80W wireless charging. Although there is no information available about the charging capabilities of the X80, DCS claims neither the Power 2 nor the X80 will support wireless charging. Likely, the X80 may debut by July 2026 in China.

Meanwhile, the brand is working on a couple of new phones for China. This month, the brand is expected to unveil the Honor 500 and 500 Pro powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. On the other hand, the Honor GT 2 and GT 2 Pro are expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5 chipsets, respectively.
