According to a new rumor from China, Honor is currently testing the upcoming Magic9 with a 6.36-inch flat OLED screen and a battery capacity around 8,000 mAh. The phone will also have a periscope telephoto camera, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, and support for wireless charging.
If this pans out, then the Magic9 will be smaller than its predecessor, and it will also pack the biggest battery of any phone of a similar size to date. It will steal that crown from the soon to be unveiled OnePlus 15T, which is going to sport a 7,500 mAh battery in a similarly sized package.
Honor Magic8
It’s still unclear when we should expect the Honor Magic9 to launch (undoubtedly alongside the Magic9 Pro), but, for reference, do note that the Magic8 and Magic8 Pro were made official in mid-October. So we’re still many months away from the introduction of their successors, that’s for sure.
