The new model range combines advanced AI technologies with a strong focus on photography, performance and user experience. At its launch on the global market, the HONOR 400 series presented itself as the ideal solution for demanding mobile applications – whether for everyday use, creative work or gaming.

Revolutionary AI camera meets creative freedom
The heart of the HONOR 400 series is the powerful 200 MP ultra-clear AI main camera, supported by a powerful sensor and intelligent algorithms. It delivers razor-sharp images even in poor lighting conditions. A 12 MP ultra-wide and macro camera and a 50 MP selfie camera complete the system and enable impressive shots from any perspective.
Particularly noteworthy is the “Film Simulation Mode”, which uses AI to create film-like effects – ideal for content creators and amateur filmmakers. The integration of Google’s Veo 2 video generation model also allows the creative conversion of photos into video clips. Functions such as the “Moving Photo Collage” or AI tools for removing passers-by, reflections or image noise show how far AI photography has come in everyday life.
Another highlight: the Harcourt portrait mode brings studio quality to the smartphone – with artistic lighting and a high level of detail.
Endurance and performance for every day
In addition to the camera, the HONOR 400 series also impresses with its robust battery performance. The 5300 mAh silicon-carbon battery offers a long runtime and works reliably even at temperatures as low as -20 °C. The fast charging function with 66 W enables the battery to be charged to 44 % in just 15 minutes.
For gaming and demanding applications, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 platform combined with the Turbo X Engine GPU ensures stable performance. The models are available with up to 512 GB of memory, and the IP65 certification protects against water and dust – ideal for on the go or extreme conditions.
Advanced display and AI-powered operating system
The new 5000 nits ultra display of the HONOR 400 series delivers a brilliant picture even in direct sunlight. Thanks to Dynamic Dimming and motion stability mode, the display always remains comfortable for the eyes – even while driving.
With MagicOS 9.0, HONOR introduces a wide range of intelligent functions. AI tools such as Google Gemini, AI protocols or the “Magic Portal” make multitasking, translations or content editing easier. Particularly noteworthy is the AI deepfake detection, which recognizes manipulated content in real time – a powerful security feature in the age of disinformation.

The Pro version also offers a 50 MP AI telephoto camera with the Sony IMX856 sensor, 3x optical zoom and AIGC-supported Super Zoom for up to 50x magnification.

The on-device call translation in up to 6 languages underlines the claim of a globally usable, smart device.
