It's coming soon, but it's still unclear exactly when.

    2. Because only small amount of people cares about thinness? Majority of phone users that I met use a goddamn big case on their phone tho. Haven't met anyone who don't uses a phone case, except myself.

Silicon carbon batteries allow more capacity in same size devices. It won't be bigger and heavier

            My dream has come true. Next target is 10,000 mAh battery.

                    David 040882, 28 Mar 2025Well count me up on that 1% then. I literally supported you... moreMaybe this site could ban those 99% other comments where it is serious so that I would not have to not bother reading the rate instances where it is not a joke? Just a suggestion you know. After all, if I read these rules below the comment box, it says

                    Please no foul language, be polite and use common sense

                    Calling someone weak over wanting a lighter phone is not what I understand as polite. And while we‘re at it

                    No trolling - deliberately antagonizing other brand/model users

                    That is quite amazing that it is listed here, because around here it‘s common courtesy to personally attack people using a phone brand one doesn’t like, for example calling them sheep or braggers while disputing them having any technical knowledge.

                      NICE!!! If Honor uses an efficient chipset and their software optimisations are up to snuff, then this could have really good battery life.

                        Anonymous, 28 Mar 2025What is there to enjoy about having 70% instead of 55% batt... moreI'll tell you an advantage

                        Longer battery life span the less depth of discharge the better the cycling and the longer the battery will last

                        So that 55% example will for example be 50% or less overtime

                        Next is the more this new type of battery chemistry is massive produced the better the quality and development over generations

                        It's just lazy behaviour to just scream marketing fluff

                        You knows what embarrassing about such a mindset when anyone researches battery history it's ultra difficult for new battery chemistry to actually survive or mature to mass production

                        This isn't like camera mega pixels batteries' chemistry is really difficult to do

                        And to just call it marketing fluff is some real ignorance

                            jiyen235, 28 Mar 2025crazy that it took a new battery tech alongside 5 more year... moreYou really cant compare LiPo of M50 or M51 which was very thick battery.
                            By the way Gionee M2017 was first with 7000 mAh as a non rugged phone.
                            Oukitel K10 from 2015 was first with 2GB ram 16GB disk space and a 10 000 mAh cell.

                              Anonymous, 28 Mar 2025That is indeed too bad as that take is 99% brought up as a ... moreWell count me up on that 1% then. I literally supported your initial argument after my first sentence, so you would've saved yourself some time if you just read my whole comment from the first time instead of immediately jumping to the conclusion that my very-obvious joke was not actually a joke.

                                      IpsDisplay, 28 Mar 2025Sigh my guys please don't even bother with this reason... moreWhat is there to enjoy about having 70% instead of 55% battery at the end of the day before plugging it in to charge? If the tech is truly so awesome, why does nobody use it to make a phone that is light enough to be held in one hand without discomfort? I‘ll tell you why, it‘s all a big marketing fluff with little improvement to actual gravimetric energy density, it just makes it possible to fit a bigger, heavier battery into the same thickness phone because the volumetric energy density is better. But that means the same thickness phone with a bigger batter will be heavier. So instead of thicker heavy phones, we have thinner heavy phones, and that brings very little progress in terms of ergonomics.

                                        Honor doing Honorable things! That's cool! I guess 8000 mAH is sure possible. Let's see if it may become a great contender for the Galaxy A56

                                        Hope it will be available in my region soon, because it recently became official brand in my region!

                                        Also, how long are the update policy for midrange Honor phones?
