Honor announces that its “Robot Phone” will launch in China on August 12. The company also says the device is built in collaboration with Munich-based film equipment firm ARRI, and it plans to demonstrate the handset’s imaging capabilities ahead of the main launch. According to the company’s communications reported by NDTV, Honor will showcase the Robot Phone on July 28 at 10:00 a.m. local time, framed as an imaging technology event. GSMArena reports that Honor previously teased the phone at an “Imaging Technology Launch Event” with ARRI, and that the launch date was confirmed through a Weibo post. GSMArena also notes that reservations for the smartphone open earlier in the month in China. Both sources reference additional information surfacing online before the launch, including leaked content such as an unboxing video and possible specifications. However, the sources do not provide verified full hardware details in the available text, beyond the confirmed launch timing and ARRI collaboration.
