The capacity of the batteries of smartphones gradually increases and the merit goes to Chinese manufacturers such as OnePlus, Honor, and even Ulefone. Honor is now looking to switch up a gear in terms of phone batteries and even beat certain tablets, if the latest leak is correct. The company would be working on a smartphone with a massive battery, but it will not be a flagship product, which could be a good thing.
According to the prolific Digital Chat Station leak on Weibohonor is in the NPI (National Provider Identifier) verification phase of a new smartphone with a 10,000 mAh battery. Although no other detail concerning the battery has been shared by the Leaker, it is likely that Honor will use a silicon-carbon configuration for this phone, whatever it is.
In addition, it is obvious that this phone will not be a flagship since it will be powered by the Dimensity 8500 So Soc Dimensity 8500 not announced 8500, according to the Leaker. The flagship SOC, the Dimensity 9500The Soc flagship, the Dimensity 9500, is expected for the end of September or October and should compete with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. The Dimensity 8500, on the other hand, should feed “sub-flagship” devices like the next Redmi Turbo 5 or the Poco X8 Pro (Global). This suggests that the massive battery capacity will be available in a more economical phone.
It will not be the first smartphone with such a massive battery, because Ulefone has several robust phones that go up to 25,000 mAh. Of course, Honor’s offer will not be as bulky as that of Ulefone, but it would be interesting to see how much the company can make this giant battery thin. Honor has already shown that it could integrate a massive battery (6,100 mAh) in a foldable phone of only 4.1 inches foldable which is only 4.1 mm thick once open.
As is the case with leaks and rumors, take this information with tweezers. Honor did not share any information on a smartphone with a 10,000 mAh battery.
