HONOR 500 Series is now launched!

HONOR just dropped its new HONOR 500 Series—headlined by the HONOR 500 Pro and HONOR 500—and it feels like the brand is out to shake up the mid-range game yet again. Built for today’s always-online, always-creating crowd, the lineup brings flagship-level portrait imaging, all-scenario live capture tools, long-lasting battery life, and a smoother-than-ever MagicOS 10 experience. It’s basically HONOR telling young creators: here’s a phone that can keep up with your everyday hustle, and look good doing it.


“With the HONOR 500 Series, we are redefining what consumers should expect from a standard, mid-range smartphone. The HONOR 500 is ‘standard’ done right, delivering a complete, well-rounded user experience that is engineered to impress. The HONOR 500 Pro goes a step beyond, building upon the solid foundation to improve upon every facet of the experience, just like what a ‘Pro’ model is expected to do,” said Fei Fang, President of Products at HONOR.

200MP Portrait Engine: All-Scenario Live Photo and Snapdragon Flagship Power

The HONOR 500 Series features a new 200MP AI Ultra-Clear Main Camera with a category-leading 1/1.4-inch CMOS sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, and—exclusive to the HONOR 500 Pro—a 50MP telephoto lens with HONOR’s SOIS stabilization system for crisp, steady shots. Delivering an all-scenario live imaging experience, the series debuts industry-first front-and-rear Live Portrait modes with background blur, beauty effects, film-inspired color options across six Film Live modes, and smart tools like Live Passerby Removal and effortless 4K-to-Live conversion for social-ready content. Powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 on the HONOR 500 and the Snapdragon 8 Elite on the Pro, and enhanced by the HONOR Phantom Engine 3.0 for optimized graphics rendering, both models ensure smooth, reliable performance and stable frame rates in demanding games like Honor of Kings and Genshin Impact.

8,000mAh Battery: Two-Day Endurance in a Slim 6.55-inch Body

The HONOR 500 Series features the class-leading 8,000mAh HONOR Silicon-carbon Battery, with an incredible energy density. HONOR 500 Pro and HONOR 500 also support 27W Wired Reverse Charging, providing a convenient way to power accessories and other devices on the go. The standard model also supports 80W wired charging, while the Pro model supports 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging for effortless, rapid battery top-up.

Flagship-Level Experience: Display, Connectivity, and MagicOS 10 Intelligence

HONOR continues to lead the industry in eye-protecting display technology. The HONOR 500 Series supports a wide range of eye protection features, helping to alleviate discomfort from natural light fluctuation, flicker, brightness, and more. It also supports features such as AI Defocus Display and AI Motion Sickness Relief to enhance the viewing experience in everyday use.

The HONOR 500 Pro also features the self-developed HONOR C1+ RF Enhanced Chip, which significantly improves signal reception, network stability, and uplink speed, ensuring smoother streaming, faster uploads in high-traffic and signal-weak areas.

The HONOR 500 series is equipped with the all-new MagicOS 10 operating system, featuring the industry’s only tiered AI Button. This customizable one-touch button provides instant access to frequently used functions, delivering a more convenient and intelligent interaction experience, making smart living effortlessly accessible.

Stunning Crystal-Clear Straight Display: Redefining Texture Standards with Exquisite Craftsmanship

The HONOR 500 Series features an industry-leading integrated cold-carved unibody design, in which the camera module and rear glass are crafted as a single seamless piece. This creates a unified, sculptural surface with a refined hand feel. Benefiting from the redesigned body architecture, the device achieves an ultra-slim 7.75mm profile and an industry-leading narrow 1.05mm bezel. Its new horizontal camera layout emphasizes clean aesthetic lines while freeing internal space for a larger battery, and offers a more comfortable, unobstructed grip in both portrait and landscape orientation. With IP68 / IP69 / IP69K water and dust resistance, the HONOR 500 Series raises the bar for durability and tactile sophistication.

Color and Availability

The HONOR 500 Series is available in four crystal-inspired color options: Blue, Pink, Silver and Black.

The HONOR 500 Series is currently limited to China. But you never know! *wink wink*
