HONOR kicked off the new year with its first product launch event on January 5th, officially unveiling the comprehensively upgraded "Outdoor Light Flagship," the HONOR Power2. It delivers performance that far surpasses its tier in areas such as battery life, connectivity, performance, and reliability, offering outdoor users a host of flagship-level, and even beyond-flagship, experiences.
The new HONOR Power2 features the industry's largest 10080mAh 4th Generation Qinghai Lake Battery, a significant 2080mAh increase from its predecessor, once again pushing the limits of industry battery life. It achieved the title of longest-lasting smartphone in the comprehensive scenario battery life tests conducted by TÜV Rheinland laboratories. By increasing the silicon content in the battery to 15%, achieving an industry-leading energy density of 926Wh/L, and precisely controlling the body thickness at 7.98mm, the HONOR Power2 delivers a leap in battery life experience while maintaining the same ultra-thin profile as the previous generation.
Furthermore, the HONOR Power2 supports both 80W Super Fast Charging and 27W Reverse Fast Charging, enabling not only rapid power replenishment but also providing reverse charging for other devices like phones, watches, and headphones from various brands. It also incorporates an Ultra-Durable Smart Charging Engine, integrating three comprehensive smart scheduling capabilities: AI Short-Time Turbo Charging, Smart Power Delivery Separation, and Travel Turbo Charging. This effectively extends battery lifespan, delivering a user experience with faster charging, longer endurance, and greater longevity.
The HONOR Power2 is equipped with the same flagship-grade Hongyan Six-Wing Antenna system, paired with HONOR's self-developed RF Enhancement Chip C1+. It supports 25 antennas, achieving a 100% mid-frame antenna ratio, with both uplink and downlink multi-channel coverage capabilities ranking first in the industry. Additionally, HONOR Power2 pioneers—regardless of cost—a parallel dual-track antenna design not even found on mainstream flagships, creating the industry's strongest low-frequency super quad-antenna. This results in a 200% improvement in weak-signal performance, surpassing the connectivity capabilities of mainstream industry flagships. Backed by this hardware prowess, the HONOR Power2 ensures smooth, uninterrupted communication in weak-signal environments like elevators, subways, high-speed trains, and various outdoor scenarios. Its "Elevator Signal King" reputation is authoritatively validated by achieving the rare double five-star certification from the State Radio Monitoring Center Testing Center (SRTC) for both strong elevator signal and precise navigation performance.
The HONOR Power2 also upgrades positioning accuracy with a new multi-source fusion positioning engine. It supports the widest range of frequency bands in its category, including dual-frequency GPS and triple-frequency BeiDou, enabling precise positioning and rapid response in five key life scenarios: walking, cycling, underground parking garages, shopping malls, and hailing rides, comprehensively optimizing navigation experiences.
The HONOR Power2 debuts the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Elite processor, featuring a flagship-grade all-big-core configuration with GPU performance improved by up to 25%, leading its tier in chip performance. Coupled with the HONOR Phantom Engine, utilizing the industry's strongest performance tuning, it delivers powerful multi-tasking capabilities and a gaming experience combining ultra-high frame rates with ultra-low stutter rates.
The HONOR Power2 boasts exceptional physical reliability. Its mid-frame incorporates a four-corner tenon-and-morton force-dissipation design, increasing drop resistance by 25% and bend resistance by 22%. The entire device has earned the SGS Gold Mark Five-Star certification for overall drop, shock, and crush resistance. It also features a full suite of dust and water resistance ratings: IP68, IP69, and IP69K. It supports protection against extremely high temperatures, prolonged exposure, waterproofing against any type of water ingress, and withstands over 10,000 repeated water immersions, easily handling even extreme outdoor environments.
For imaging, it sports a 50MP OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) main camera, supporting CIPA level 5.0 stabilization for stable shots even in motion. Additionally, the newly upgraded AI Outdoor Mode offers several practical features like screen enhancement and network optimization, alongside welcome additions like an AI Fraud Prevention function, full-scenario NFC, and an infrared remote control, comprehensively safeguarding users' work and life experiences.
Design-wise, the HONOR Power2 follows a fashionably minimalist tech aesthetic. It features a meticulously crafted frosted metal mid-frame and a unibody cold carving process. It comes in three new colorways: "Sunrise Orange," "Snowfield White," and "Phantom Night Black." The 12GB+256GB version is priced at 2699 yuan, and the 12GB+512GB version at 2999 yuan, with national subsidy preferential prices of 2294.15 yuan and 2549.15 yuan, respectively.
Furthermore, the launch event also introduced a series of new all-scenario ecosystem products, including the HONOR Pad X10 Pro and the HONOR Choice DOINGTOP X8i headphones.
