Pre-orders opened right after the announcement on Weibo. General sales will begin on June 26 at 10:08 in the morning.

Features & Specifications

This new model stands out in a way no previous Honor device has done before. One of the main feature is a massive 11,000 mAh battery that supports 90 watt wired fast charging and 27 watt reverse charging. Honor says the unit uses its Qinghai Lake Battery built with silicon carbon technology, a formulation recognized for strong reliability and long battery health.

The company appears to be leaning into large capacity power supplies as a key selling point, following earlier launches such as the Honor Win series and the Honor Power 2 released back in January, which packs a 10,080 mAh cell.

The handset also carries full IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings for water and dust resistance, with durability verified by SGS certification. During a live demonstration at the launch event, the device was put through various real world scenarios and shown to operate reliably even in temperatures as high as 85 degrees Celsius.

Performance comes from the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 processor. While this chip is not built to deliver absolute flagship level speed, it handles everyday multitasking smoothly and runs even heavy games at playable frame rates.

For now the phone is sold officially only within China. People living in other markets including India and the Philippines can still get one through third party importers and sellers.
