onor has opened reservations for its next number-series lineup, and the company is making one design choice across the board.
The Honor 700 series will include three models — the Honor 700 Pro , the standard Honor 700 , and the Honor 700S — and all three feature a rear-facing secondary display , according to listings now live on Honor's official website.
What We Know So Far
If the leaks hold, the Honor 700 series would be unusual for packing a periscope telephoto lens into what is typically a mid-to-upper-mid-range line — a feature usually reserved for flagship phones.
The "dual 8-series chips" claim is vaguer. It could mean the lineup splits between two different Snapdragon 8-series processors across the Pro and standard models, or that a secondary chip handles a specific function. Honor hasn't clarified.
The Rear Screen Strategy
A rear display across the entire lineup is the series' defining feature. At 1.72 inches , it would be smaller than the rear screens on some competing devices, and the leaks describe it as selfie-oriented — suggesting Honor is positioning it as a framing aid for the main camera rather than a full secondary interface.
What Honor Is Saying
Honor Global CMO Guan Haitao formally announced the 700 series on November 3, framing the lineup around three priorities:
- Inheriting flagship-level imaging capabilities
- Exploring new AI-driven experiences for younger users
- Defending Honor's existing strengths
That's marketing language, but it does line up with the leaked specs — particularly the periscope camera and the emphasis on AI features.
What's Still Missing
Honor hasn't announced:
- Pricing for any of the three models
- A launch date
- Processor details for each model
- Display specs for the main screen
- Global availability
Reservations are live in China, which typically precedes a launch by roughly one to two weeks.
