At the China launch event, HONOR introduced HONOR Magic8‘s AI concept version HONOR ROBOT PHONE, positioned as part of its AI product ecosystem.
According to the HONOR, the device is designed to fuse multi-modal intelligence, advanced robotics, and next-generation imaging. It is equipped with an AI system for environmental perception and features robotic mobility, allowing it to move. One of the key functions highlighted is its ability to act as a personal camera for its users, capturing moments such as celebrations or everyday life.
The video posted by the company also shows the device potentially assisting with tasks like outfit selection and capturing dynamic shots, like during skydiving.
This new product is part of the company’s “HONOR ALPHA PLAN,” which was announced earlier this year. HONOR positions the Robot Phone as the next step in the evolution of intelligent devices, following the transition from standard smartphones to AI-centric phones. The initiative is aligned with the company’s goal of becoming a global leader in the AI device ecosystem.
The company plans to officially debut the product at the MWC 2026 in Barcelona.
