Honor may enter the wide-screen phone race with a battery that beats every rival in its class. The Honor wide-screen phone is tipped to pack a battery rated at 8,000mAh or more. Honor has made no comment on the leak.
Key Takeaways
- The Honor wide-screen phone is tipped to pack a battery rated at 8,000mAh or more.
- Its 6.39-inch screen matches the Huawei Pura X View, yet its battery is at least 1,000mAh bigger.
- A 200MP triple camera system with a periscope lens is also claimed for the phone.
Honor Wide-Screen Phone: Key Details & Core Impact
Tipster Digital Chat Station shared the claim. The phone uses the same 6.39-inch screen size as the Huawei Pura X View. Its battery is rated at 8,000mAh or more, at least 1,000mAh bigger.
The Pura X View has a 6.39-inch OLED, a 16:9.5 ratio, a 7,000mAh battery and a 6.68mm body. Honor’s battery would therefore be the largest in its category, the tipster claims. However, fitting a larger battery into this size could affect thickness and weight.
The leak also mentions a 200MP triple rear camera system with a periscope lens. Digital Chat Station has not clarified whether the 200MP sensor is the main or telephoto camera. Early engineering samples run an unnamed Snapdragon chip, while thickness and weight were not shared.
Honor has made no comment on whether and when it will launch a wide-screen phone. Therefore, treat every detail here as a leak. Still, the claim fits Honor’s recent run of big-battery leaks.
Meanwhile, Honor’s official site lists only current models, so check there for confirmed details.
Context & Background
Huawei’s Pura X View started the wide-screen trend. Last month, Digital Chat Station said Oppo and Honor would lead Android brands into the wide-screen candybar market. Honor now looks like the next brand to act on that tip.
Coolpad’s Cool X Wide was the first wide Android phone, so Honor would not be first to the format. The same tipster previously claimed the Honor 700 series would come with a 9,000mAh battery and a 200MP main camera. In short, big batteries are fast becoming Honor’s calling card.
Industry Reaction & Consumer Next Steps
A wide screen plus a huge battery could win over video fans and heavy users. Yet a thicker, heavier body could put some buyers off. Until Honor shares dimensions, that trade-off stays unknown.
If you want a wide-screen phone now, the Pura X View and Cool X Wide are the current options. If you can wait, Honor’s phone may offer more battery for the same screen size. In short, this leak rewards patience, not haste.
