After parting ways with Huawei and continuing as an independent brand, Honor has started working on the successor to its Honor 300 series, which was introduced in December. Recent developments reveal the first details about the new series.
What will the Honor 400 series offer?
Reliable industry sources indicate that the Honor 400 series will feature a significant upgrade in battery capacity. Smartphones in the series are expected to come equipped with batteries of 7,000 mAh or larger.
The devices will feature a metal frame, which should address most concerns about durability. Additionally, the Pro and Ultra variants are expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Elite chipset.
The Honor 400 series is likely to debut in May 2025, comprising Standard, Pro, and Ultra models. Unfortunately, no further details about the series are currently available.
