HONOR has begun teasing a new addition to its Magic 8 lineup, sparking speculation about a device that could be called the Magic 8 Pro Air or simply the Magic 8 Air. Official teasers, shared on social media by HONOR President Fangfei, prominently highlight the words “Pro” and “Air,” hinting at a fresh premium model. Industry watchers expect the phone to debut in China in late January or early February 2026, following the upcoming HONOR Power 2 launch.
Early leaks suggest the new Magic model will focus on a compact, ultra-thin design aimed at users seeking a more pocket-friendly flagship. The device is tipped to feature a 6.31-inch LTPO OLED display with 1.5k resolution, alongside an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for added security.
Powering the phone is expected to be MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 chipset, positioned as a high-end platform balancing performance and efficiency. Reports also point to a 5,500mAh battery with 80W fast charging support, while software duties would be handled by MagicOS 10 based on Android 16.
Although official camera details remain under wraps, the Magic 8 Pro Air is believed to sit firmly in HONOR’s premium segment and may inherit strong imaging capabilities from other Magic 8 series devices. Colour options are rumoured to include Feather White, Shadow Black, Light Orange, and Fairy Purple.
With the Power 2 event slated for early January 2026, more teasers and specification leaks are expected to surface in the coming weeks. Full details on pricing, specifications, and availability should follow once HONOR makes the announcement official. For more trending tech updates, stay tuned to TechNave.com.
