The brand, nonetheless, is believed to be still working on additional models to add to the lineup, including the Honor Magic 8 Ultra and Honor Magic 8 Mini. Now, according to reputable leaker Smart Pikachu, one of these models (or both) could support magnetic wireless charging.
According to the account, the device is now under a pre-research stage, noting that Honor will also add an under-display 3D fingerprint scanner to the model.

The Honor Magic 8 Mini, meanwhile, is allegedly positioned as an Air model. A tip noted that the handheld would measure between 5mm and 6mm. To compare, the iPhone 17 Air is 5.6 mm thick. Inside, the phone will house the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chip. It also features a compact 6.3″ flat 1.5K LTPO display. Despite its size and thickness, the model features a 200MP main camera and a telephoto lens, although a 50MP 1/1.5″ lens is reportedly planned to replace the main unit.
