Honor is about to make one of its biggest phone announcements yet. The Chinese brand has confirmed an appearance at the upcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC) exhibition where it will announce its most powerful phone yet.
MWC 2022 will take place on February 28 and Honor has promised to announce a phone powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, a first for the company. This would make it the most powerful Honor phone yet as current flagships are still limited to the Snapdragon 888+, last year’s flagship chip.
It is unclear whether it will be a foldable phone or a regular smartphone. The Honor Magic V, the company’s first foldable phone, was recently announced in China and it is likely to have a global launch at MWC 2022. That phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
However, it is also possible that we will see a brand new and unexpected flagship as the announcement poster does not rule out possibilities. The poster was shared on Weibo yesterday.
If the Honor Magic V does break through the global market, it will face stiff competition from Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. The Z Fold 3 is one of the best-selling foldable phones on the market right now and it remains to be seen. of Honor is ready to take the heat.
