Published on: 4 days ago (Aug/28/2025)

Overview

The Honor 500 and 500 Pro are set to launch in late 2025 with lightweight iPhone-inspired designs, an upgraded 200MP main camera, faster charging, and refined performance. Here’s everything we know so far.

Honor is back with another surprise! Just a few months after the Honor 400 and 400 Pro launched in May 2025, leaks suggest that the company is already preparing the Honor 500 series. The new lineup is expected to launch before the end of this year, bringing a refined iPhone-like design, a lighter body, and an upgraded 200MP camera sensor.

But the question is: how much of an upgrade will the Honor 500 really be compared to the 400? Let’s break it down.

According to reliable tipster Digital Chat Station:

The Honor 500 and 500 Pro will continue the iPhone-inspired design language.
They will remain lightweight at around 170–190 grams.
The series will focus heavily on photography and balanced performance.

Other Honor Devices Coming Soon

Honor isn’t just working on the 500 series—two more exciting phones are in the pipeline:

Honor GT 2 → A 6.83-inch performance-focused phone with a huge battery.
Honor Power 2 → A game-changer with a 10,000 mAh battery on a regular slab phone, expected in Q1 2026.

This shows Honor’s strategy of covering flagship photography, performance beasts, and ultra-battery phones.

Honor 500 Series Launch Date

While Honor has not made anything official, multiple leaks suggest the Honor 500 and 500 Pro will launch in China by late 2025. A global release including Nepal and India is expected by early 2026.

Our Verdict: Should You Wait for the Honor 500?

The Honor 500 series looks like a refined and slightly upgraded version of the Honor 400, with improvements in camera quality, lighter build, and faster charging.

If you already own the Honor 400, the upgrade may not feel massive—unless you want the new 200MP sensor.
If you’re on an older phone, the Honor 500 series could be the perfect balance of style, performance, and camera power without breaking the bank.

Honor is clearly aiming to keep the momentum alive in 2025, and if pricing stays competitive, the 500 series could be a big hit in the mid-to-flagship market.
