In addition to the exceptional AI photography experience, the HONOR 400 Pro includes a 50MP AI Telephoto Camera[4] with a Sony IMX856 sensor, 3x optical zoom, and OIS, providing detailed zoom shots.

On the front, both devices are equipped with a 50MP Portrait Selfie Camera[5] with an f/2.0 aperture, powered by HONOR’s advanced portrait algorithm for taking professional-grade selfies with stunning detail and lifelike colours.

Combining Next-Gen AI Imaging and Flagship Camera Specs  

The HONOR 400 Series’ photography experience is powered by the advanced AI HONOR IMAGE ENGINE, introducing a cutting-edge AI camera that elevates mobile photography. The AI Super Zoom on the Pro version boasts an AIGC-powered telephoto capability of 15x to 50x, making it perfect for capturing distant scenes, like natural landscapes or urban cityscapes. The standard version, on the other hand, is the industry’s first smartphone to achieve 30x telephoto shooting capability with a main camera.

For studio-quality portrait images, the HONOR 400 Series comes with AI Portrait Snap, which maintains sharpness and clarity even when capturing motion in portrait mode under daytime street scenes. Meanwhile, Harcourt Portrait 2.0 offers users creative options for capturing striking portraits with refined bokeh and sophisticated light-shadow effects. In addition to the three distinct Harcourt Studio styles, this feature also offers six Film Simulation filters. The HONOR 400 Pro also includes an additional feature—AI Enhanced Portrait, which delivers ultra-high-definition portraits while letting the true colours of every subject shine through.

Industry-leading AI Image to Video

The HONOR 400 Series captures life’s memorable moments with advanced AI Editing tools that elevate everyday creativity. Its revolutionary AI Image to Video[6] feature, developed in collaboration with Google Cloud, transforms digital photos, AI-generated art, or old pictures into captivating five-second moving visuals.

Other Innovative AI Editing Features

The HD Moving Photo feature preserves the golden three seconds of vibrant live moments, allowing users to effortlessly share or edit cinematic snippets on social platforms. HONOR takes this further with Moving Photo Collage, a feature that allows users to combine two to nine moving photos and seamlessly stitch live photos into dynamic storytelling moments.

In addition, the HONOR 400 Series also offers AI Editing tools[7] for advanced photo editing, including AI Eraser 2.0, AI Erase Passers-by, AI Remove Reflection, and AI Outpainting. To enhance image quality, both devices come with AI Upscale, AI Cutout and AI Face Tune, making the HONOR 400 Series a powerful mobile photography tool.

Powerful Battery and Enhanced Hardware Performance

The HONOR 400 Series is equipped with a robust 6,000mAh silicon-carbon battery, providing a longer-lasting user experience, especially when on the go. The battery is designed for low-temperature environments, around -20°C, maintaining its durability and task performance—such as making phone calls and recording videos—even in extreme conditions. It is built for longevity, maintaining over 80% of its health even after four years[8]. With the included 100W HONOR Wired SuperCharge charger, the devices reach 44% charge in just 15 minutes[9]. The Pro model also supports 50W wireless charging for added convenience.

Durability is another highlight. The Pro version features IP68 and IP69-rated water and dust resistance, ensuring better device protection. The HONOR 400 also boasts IP65 water and dust resistance, offering comprehensive protection against water and dust ingress. This makes the HONOR 400 Series an ideal companion for outdoor adventures and challenging environments.

The Pro is powered by the cutting-edge Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform[10], delivering fast and responsive performance optimised for AI tasks. The standard version runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 Mobile Platform[11] and CPU Turbo X Game Engine, offering users a smooth gaming experience with enhanced graphics.

Advanced Display Technology for Optimal Viewing Experience

The HONOR 400 Series offers flagship display features with a 1.5K AMOLED display paired with a 120Hz high refresh rate and 5,000 nits[12] HDR peak brightness for exceptional visibility, even in bright sunlight. The display also comes with Eye Comfort Display Technology featuring 3840Hz Risk-Free PWM Dimming to minimise screen flicker and reduce eye strain. Hardware Low Blue Light Technology prevents harmful blue light exposure, while Dynamic Dimming adjusts brightness to reduce eye fatigue. Circadian Night Display shifts the screen to warmer tones in the evening to promote better sleep, while the AI Defocus Display lessens fatigue by adjusting content and projecting images slightly in front of the retina. The Ultra Dark Mode dims the screen to just 1.5 nits, offering precise brightness control for a more comfortable nighttime viewing experience.

Both devices feature Motion Sickness Relief[13], a new display technology that reduces nausea and dizziness when viewing the screen during vehicle movement, helping motion-sensitive users travel more comfortably. All these innovations provide users with an immersive visual experience.

Smarter Productivity with Flagship-level AI

The HONOR 400 Series, powered by MagicOS 9.0, delivers a highly intelligent user experience enhanced by a variety of AI-driven smart features. For work efficiency, the series has four powerful AI tools—AI Summary, AI Minutes, AI Format and AI Correction—that help make meeting minutes smarter and easier. The AI Translation tool supports instant translation for up to 14 languages, while AI Live Translation allows real-time translation during phone calls between users speaking different languages. These advanced capabilities ensure seamless multitasking, enhanced productivity, and personalised interactions, making the HONOR 400 Series a standout choice for users.

The HONOR 400 Series also comes with Gemini[14], a Google AI assistant. Users can chat with Gemini to get help with learning, planning, writing, and more. They can even go Live with Gemini to brainstorm ideas, simplify complex topics, and rehearse for important moments with real-time responses. Just press and hold the power button to get started.

To safeguard users against potential deepfake scams and ensure online security, the HONOR 400 Series also includes its groundbreaking on-device AI Deepfake Detection technology.

The HONOR 400 Series also includes Magic Portal 2.0 for quick and direct access to apps. Users can simply circle objects on the screen with their knuckles to instantly access relevant apps and services. The feature also supports a wide range of scenarios—from transportation, navigation, and shopping to booking accommodation, productivity, and entertainment. Supported apps include Grab, Trip.com, Waze, Google Maps, Google Image, Google Search, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and Xiao Hong Shu.
