Honor has shown the first official look at the Honor 600 and Honor 600 Pro, and there is no subtle way to say this: the rear design leans hard into the same big rectangular camera island Apple is using on the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. The Honor 600 series is set to launch on 23 April, and Honor is clearly betting that a familiar premium silhouette, a 200-megapixel camera, and a dose of AI wizardry will do more than a fresh coat of paint.
The teaser also suggests Honor is trying to stretch the appeal beyond looks. The company’s ”turn moments into motion” messaging points to a continuation of its work with Google Veo, which it started with the Honor 400 line, letting users generate short AI videos from still images. That is the sort of feature manufacturers love to dress up as the future, though the real test is whether people use it after the demo ends.
Honor 600 and Honor 600 Pro design and launch date
On the hardware side, the leaked picture is fairly straightforward. The Honor 600 is tipped to use Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, while the Honor 600 Pro is expected to move up to Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The camera setup appears to differ too, with two modules on the standard model and three on the Pro, though both are said to carry a 200-megapixel sensor.
Honor 600 series specs
Honor is also sticking to a fairly aggressive display and battery recipe:
- 6.57-inch OLED panel
- 120 Hz refresh rate
- 1.5K resolution
- around 7000 mAh battery
- up to 9000 mAh in the Chinese version
That combination is not subtle either. Big battery, fast screen, premium-looking camera block – it is the same formula plenty of Android rivals keep returning to because, frankly, it still sells.
Pricing has not been made official, but the early estimate puts the series at roughly 600 euros and up. If that holds, Honor will be aiming at a crowded middle-premium segment where design copycats are common and margin pressure is real. The interesting question is whether the 600 Pro’s stronger chip and extra camera actually justify the step up, or whether the standard model ends up being the sensible pick again.
