Summary

  • A new leak says Honor’s Magic9 lineup will include three models—not two—with a new Super Edition carrying an 11,000mAh battery, a 6.8-inch 165Hz display and a 200MP main camera.
  • The tipster says the Super Edition will use Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a built-in cooling fan, a fiberglass body and a single front camera, while skipping the ARRI branding seen elsewhere in the series.
  • The base Magic9 is tipped to pair a 6.37-inch screen and 8,000mAh battery with dual 200MP rear cameras co-developed with ARRI, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and a single 3D front camera.
  • The Magic9 Pro Max is said to step up to a 6.8-inch display, metal body, dual 200MP rear cameras, a 1:1 front sensor with 3D ToF, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme and an 8,800mAh battery.
  • Honor has already revealed the series design, and the phones are set to launch on September 28; pre-orders are already open on Honor’s official China store.
