Honor is preparing a smartphone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and a record-breaking 9000 mAh battery

Chinese manufacturers are actively implementing silicon-carbon technology in battery production, allowing them to release smartphones with nearly twice the battery capacity compared to manufacturers from other countries. According to new rumors, Honor plans to release a smartphone with a powerful 9000 mAh battery and a flagship processor — Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 or Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

Earlier, information appeared that at the beginning of the year Realme will release a smartphone with a 10,000 mAh battery. This company recently made waves with its smartphone with a 15,000 mAh battery, but then it became known that it was just a concept that won't go on sale. So it's quite possible that at the beginning of 2026, Chinese manufacturers will be vying for the 10,000 mAh mark, making Apple and Samsung's position even less competitive.
