Honor Magic 8 Pro Rumored to Feature Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 Chip and Upgraded Triple Camera Setup

Following the launch of the Honor Magic 7 Pro in China last October and its subsequent release in European markets earlier this year, Honor appears to be preparing for its next flagship entry—the Magic 8 Pro. Although an official announcement is yet to be made, early leaks suggest the device may debut around October 2025, continuing the company’s annual release pattern. Despite the lack of confirmation, the rumor mill is already providing insight into what we might expect from this highly anticipated smartphone.

According to a recent post by tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, an upcoming Honor device—presumed to be the Magic 8 Pro—is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset. This new SoC is anticipated to launch later this year as a successor to the Snapdragon 8 Elite, positioning it as one of the most powerful processors available in Android smartphones by the time the Magic 8 Pro hits the market.

Camera upgrades are also in the spotlight. The Magic 8 Pro is rumored to include a triple rear camera setup, led by a 50-megapixel OV50Q main sensor with a 1/1.3-inch size and LOFIC technology aimed at enhancing dynamic range. It could be paired with a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. This new configuration is said to improve frame transitions and power efficiency, suggesting that Honor is not only focused on performance but also on optimizing energy use for camera-intensive tasks.

For context, the Honor Magic 7 Pro currently sports a similar triple-lens system with a 50-megapixel main sensor and a 200-megapixel periscope unit capable of 100x digital zoom. The expected changes in the Magic 8 Pro signal iterative, yet meaningful upgrades to both hardware and imaging capabilities. With the previous model priced at EUR 1,099.99 (roughly Rs. 97,000) in Europe for the 12GB + 512GB variant, the Magic 8 Pro may fall within a similar premium price range once officially launched.

iPhone 17 Series Tipped to Feature 12GB RAM, iPhone 18 May Introduce Advanced Memory Tech

Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 lineup is rumored to receive a notable boost in memory, with reports suggesting that all variants could ship with 12GB of RAM. This would mark a significant upgrade over the iPhone 16 models, which currently offer 8GB. The iPhone 17 series is expected to include four models—standard, Air, Pro, and Pro Max—and could make its debut later this year.

According to a leak shared by tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the increased memory is intended to support Apple Intelligence and other AI-powered features that may debut with the new lineup. These tools are expected to require more processing resources, making the jump to 12GB of RAM a strategic move to ensure smooth performance across models. This would also align Apple more closely with Android competitors that have already adopted higher RAM capacities.

The report adds that the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will likely be powered by the A19 Pro chipset, built on TSMC’s advanced 3nm process. This next-generation chip, paired with the larger RAM, is expected to outperform the current A18 Pro SoC used in the iPhone 16 Pro models. Meanwhile, early details about the iPhone 18 series suggest even greater memory improvements, with support for six-channel LPDDR5X memory, which could translate to faster speeds and more efficient multitasking.

These leaks follow a recent prediction from TF Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who stated that Apple may standardize 12GB of RAM across the entire iPhone 17 lineup. He also echoed the expectation that the iPhone 18 series will fully embrace the memory upgrade, potentially making 12GB the new baseline across all models. If these predictions hold true, Apple’s future smartphones could be significantly more capable in handling AI, gaming, and intensive multitasking scenarios.

Honor appears to be gearing up for the launch of its next-generation smartphones, the Honor 400 and Honor 400 Pro. Both devices have recently been spotted on China’s 3C (China Compulsory Certification) website, indicating that their official debut may be imminent. The listings not only confirm 5G support but also hint at the presence of fast charging capabilities, further fueling anticipation among tech enthusiasts in China.

According to the report, the standard Honor 400 model is listed under the model number DNN-AN00, while the Pro version is believed to carry the designation DNP-AN00. The 3C certification reveals that the Honor 400 may support fast wired charging up to 80W, whereas the Honor 400 Pro could push this even further to 90W. These details suggest a focus on performance and convenience for users who value rapid charging in daily use.

In terms of specifications, a known tipster shared insights on Weibo that provide a clearer picture of what to expect. The Honor 400 is rumored to come with a 6.5-inch flat OLED LTPS display offering a 1.5K resolution, and it could be powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset. Meanwhile, the Pro variant is tipped to feature a larger 6.7-inch quad-curved OLED display with the same resolution, backed by the more powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor.

Camera and battery capabilities also look promising for both models. The handsets are expected to boast a 200-megapixel main sensor, while the Honor 400 Pro may also include a 50-megapixel telephoto lens for improved zoom and portrait shots. Under the hood, both phones could house a sizable 7,000mAh silicon-based battery, promising extended usage times. Additionally, the phones are said to feature a premium metal frame, indicating a refined build quality consistent with Honor’s recent flagship offerings.
