The Honor Power made some waves in the industry when it was introduced back in April, thanks to its 8,000 mAh battery. That’s still huge even today for a mainstream smartphone, but competitors are working on devices with similar (or slightly larger) sizes – case in point: Redmi.
Honor, however, isn’t giving up the mAh fight. Instead, it’s already developing the Honor Power 2, and this one will have a mind-blowing 10,000 mAh battery. It was first leaked last month, and today a new rumor out of China brings us another piece of the puzzle: the chipset it will use.
It will allegedly be the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 SoC, so the Power 2 will still decidedly be a mid-range device. Unfortunately, no other specs of the Power 2 have been outed just yet, but that’s a solid upper-midrange chip to pair with a humongous battery, so color us excited to hear more in the future – and undoubtedly many other leaks about this phone are coming in the next few days and weeks.
For reference, note that the original Honor Power comes with a 6.78-inch 1224×2700 AMOLED screen with 120 Hz refresh rate and 4,000-nit peak brightness, a 50 MP main camera, a 5 MP ultrawide, and a 16 MP selfie snapper. Its battery charges at 66W through wires, and it will be interesting to see whether the Power 2 will change that.
