HONOR Magic8 Ultra Leaks
The Magic8 Ultra is said to feature a quad-curved LTPO OLED display measuring around 6.7 inches (or possibly 6.71 inches) with a 1.5K resolution and a refresh rate likely reaching 165 Hz, making for ultra-smooth visuals.
It also reportedly includes an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor and 3D face recognition for biometric security.
Under the hood, the device is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, the latest 3 nm flagship platform from Qualcomm.
Battery capacity is tipped to start with a “7” prefix (e.g., around 7,000 mAh or more).
While charging speeds are not yet fully confirmed for this model, rumors indicate it might match the Magic8 Pro’s support for 120 W wired and 50 W wireless charging.
HONOR appears to be placing strong emphasis on imaging with the Ultra model. Leaks indicate a 50 MP OmniVision OV50R main camera for improved dynamic range, paired with a high-resolution 200 MP periscope telephoto lens (with estimated 4.3x to 7x optical zoom) and other sensors for ultra-wide capture.
For tech enthusiasts tracking the next wave of Android flagships, the HONOR Magic8 Ultra is shaping up to be a model worth watching. From its rumored Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip to a 1.5K 165 Hz display and a 200 MP periscope camera, HONOR may be preparing a true contender for 2026’s top shoot-out.
