At the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC), Honor CEO Li Jian unveiled the company’s first Robot Phone, confirming it will launch globally in August with pre-orders now open across all sales channels. The device is powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform and features a 1.5K flat display with ultra-narrow, symmetrical bezels, alongside support for 120W wired fast charging. Its defining feature is a four-degree-of-freedom (4DoF) titanium-alloy robotic gimbal integrated into the top of the phone.

Honor says the robotic gimbal enables 360-degree subject tracking and AI-powered cinematic camera movements.For imaging, the Robot Phone packs a flagship triple-camera system comprising a 200MP 4D gimbal main camera, a telephoto camera, and a 50MP ultra-wide camera. Honor has also partnered with ARRI, bringing professional-grade Log-C recording and LUT color grading to the device in a bid to deliver cinema-quality video capture with highly autonomous camera operation.
