Smartphone batteries continue to get bigger, and HONOR may be preparing one of the largest yet. A new leak suggests the company is working on an X80 Pro Max model that could push battery capacity into entirely new territory.
According to information shared by well-known tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the rumored HONOR X80 Pro Max could arrive with a massive 11,000mAh battery paired with 90W fast charging support. If accurate, that would make it one of the biggest batteries ever seen in a mainstream smartphone.
While the leak does not mention a launch date, it reveals several key specifications of the device.
The HONOR X80 Pro Max is tipped to feature a 6.8-inch flat AMOLED display with slim bezels, rounded corners, and a 2788 × 1280 resolution. The design appears to focus on delivering a premium viewing experience despite the phone’s expected emphasis on battery life.
Under the hood, the device is said to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset.
The leak also claims that the smartphone will offer full water resistance, a drop-resistant design, and flagship-level biometric authentication features, suggesting HONOR is aiming to position the device above a typical mid-range offering.
Interestingly, the standard HONOR X80 is also rumored to feature the same Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 processor. Previous leaks suggest the non-Pro Max model will come equipped with a 6.8-inch AMOLED display and a still-impressive 10,000mAh battery.
The timing of the leak is notable, as reports indicate that the regular HONOR X80 could launch in China later this month. However, there is currently no word on when or if the X80 Pro Max will officially debut.
As always, these details should be treated as unofficial until HONOR confirms them. Still, if the leaked specifications prove accurate, the X80 Pro Max could become one of the most battery-focused smartphones on the market, offering a combination of huge endurance, fast charging, and premium features.
