Honor made the Magic8 and Magic8 Pro official today and during the same event the brand also teased an upcoming device it will call Robot Phone. This will be fully revealed at MWC Barcelona in early March next year.
Until then, we’ve got the teaser video below, and if you’re wondering what makes this a “robot phone,” it’s a gimbal camera that looks a lot like the one on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 — only this one’s built into a phone, of course. Check it out for yourself:
So, it’s a robot phone – or, better said, Honor Robot Phone – because the camera moves in a way that imitates a human (or robot) head. It also interacts with what it “sees” this way and of course there will be a lot of AI features built in too.
At the moment Honor presents it as a concept and it is not clear whether at the MWC in March we will see it presented completely as a concept or as a “finished” device. Time will tell. Before then, you can sign up on Honor’s website to learn more and get “behind-the-scenes stories and first-hand information.”
This also allows you to participate in early user research, with “your valuable feedback” potentially helping to shape the final shape of the product. You’ll also be “one of the first in the world to experience, touch and test this revolutionary device,” so all in all, entering your email to get all these benefits seems like a good idea.
