Honor has dropped its new mid-range kings — the Honor 500 and Honor 500 Pro — and they’re coming for the crown with batteries so massive they make other flagships look like they’re running on nostalgia.
The Battery Game Just Changed — Forever
- Honor 500: a colossal 6,600 mAh battery
- Honor 500 Pro: an absurd 7,000 mAh monster — one of the biggest ever in a smartphone
We’re talking bigger than most power banks you own. Forget “all-day battery” — these phones are ready for the weekend.
Slim, Light, and Still Packing a Power Plant
You’d expect something this juiced-up to feel like a brick. Nope.
- Honor 500 → only 7.98 mm thin, 199 g
- Honor 500 Pro → just 8.15 mm thin, 209 g
They’re thinner and lighter than plenty of phones with half the battery capacity.
Displays That Spoil Your Eyes
Both phones rock stunning curved OLED panels:
- Gorgeous 1.5K resolution
- Silky 120 Hz refresh rate
- Blazing 4,500 nits peak brightness (sunlight? what sunlight?)
- Ultra-high 3,840 Hz PWM dimming for flicker-free viewing and less eye fatigue
The Pro gets a slightly bigger 6.78-inch screen vs. 6.7-inch on the standard model — pure eye candy either way.
Cameras Borrowed Straight from Flagship Territory
Honor didn’t hold back on the shooters:
- 50 MP main camera (Sony IMX906 + OIS) on both
- 12 MP ultra-wide
- Honor 500 Pro exclusive: 50 MP periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom & up to 30x hybrid zoom
- 50 MP selfie camera + depth sensor for flawless portraits
These are Magic-series level optics in a mid-ranger. Yes, really.
Power & Speed That Punch Way Above Their Weight
- Honor 500 → Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 (plenty fast, super efficient)
- Honor 500 Pro → Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 (the same beast inside Poco F6 Pro and Motorola Edge 50 Ultra)
Charging So Fast You’ll Forget “Low Battery Anxiety” Exists
- Honor 500 → 100W wired charging for the 6,600 mAh cell
- Honor 500 Pro → 90W wired + an insane 80W wireless charging on a 7,000 mAh battery (almost unheard of)
Plug in for a few minutes and you’re good for the entire day.
Pricing That Makes the Competition Nervous (China pricing)
- Honor 500 starts at ~$375 / PKR 104,000
- Honor 500 Pro tops out (16 GB + 1 TB) at ~$625 / PKR 174,000
Global launch details are still under wraps, but Honor almost always brings its numbered series worldwide a few months after China — and when these land, the mid-range segment is going to feel the earthquake.
