Honor 500 Pro: Display, Chipset, and Camera Details
Honor is reportedly preparing several new smartphone releases for the Chinese market. While the Honor Magic 8 series is expected to debut by mid-October, new leaks suggest that the brand is also working on the Honor GT 2 series and the Honor 500 lineup.
A reliable leak from tipster Smart Pikachu has revealed the key specifications of the Honor 500 Pro, highlighting major upgrades in performance and design.
According to the report, the Honor 500 series will launch in China by December 2025. It is rumored to feature a 6.6-inch flat widescreen display with rounded corners, giving it a modern aesthetic. The device will also boast a 200MP main camera, emphasizing Honor’s focus on high-end mobile photography. The tipster adds that the phone will feature an iPhone-like premium design and texture, likely targeting users who prefer a sleek, flagship look.
To recall, the Honor 400 and 400 Pro launched earlier in China with a 6.55-inch OLED display and a 200MP primary camera. These models were powered by Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipsets respectively.
Building upon those specs, the upcoming Honor 500 Pro is expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, Qualcomm’s latest top-tier processor. While details about the standard Honor 500 remain unclear, it may retain the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 for balanced performance and affordability.
As of now, there is no confirmation of a global release for the Honor 500 lineup. Given that the Honor 300 series never made it outside China, the Honor 500 series may also remain exclusive to its domestic market.
