Honor 700 Rear Display Rumors: 1.7-Inch Screen and 12,000mAh Battery

Honor is testing a rear-facing display on a slim smartphone, a design choice that could change how users interact with notifications and media without opening the device. This design approach offers a compact way for users to access information without the size of a tablet or the distraction of a large main display. The potential Honor 700 series would be the first to feature this 1.7-inch secondary screen, according to reports from Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station.

Rumors point to a 1.7-inch rear screen and massive battery for Honor's upcoming smartphone

The device under consideration sits alongside other upcoming hardware in Honor's pipeline, including a wide-screen foldable phone and a gaming-focused model. The wide foldable concept appears to be a separate project that may utilize a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 processor and a 20-megapixel main camera. The wide foldable concept provides a different screen layout compared to the rear-display design, potentially appealing to users seeking a tablet-like experience.

Rumored Specifications

  • Rear Display Size: 1.7 inches
  • Battery Capacity: 11,790mAh rated / ~12,000mAh typical
  • Processor (Honor Power 3): 3nm Dimensity 8600
  • Processor (Wide Foldable): Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6
  • Camera (Wide Foldable): 20-megapixel main camera

Battery technology is also evolving in Honor's labs, with a new cell rated at 11,790mAh and expected to reach a typical capacity of around 12,000mAh. This high-capacity battery might power the Honor Power 3, a device that could launch as early as early 2027. The Honor Power 3 is rumored to feature a 3nm Dimensity 8600 chip. The wide foldable, by contrast, is said to carry a 7,000mAh battery, balancing its larger screen with a substantial power source.

Honor is also accelerating the Win 2 gaming phone series, which may break cover in October in China. The Win 2 gaming phone series may launch in October, potentially earlier than the broader 700 lineup. The 700 series itself is expected to launch in China in November or December of this year. We looked at Honor 600 Pro vs Xiaomi 17 in our earlier Honor coverage to track these evolving product lines.

Confirmed details remain limited to the rumored specifications and regional availability windows. Honor has not officially verified the rear display or the specific processor choices for the 700 series. The 12,000mAh battery remains a possibility for the Power 3 rather than a confirmed feature of the 700. Users in China should watch for announcements in the coming months to see which of these concepts reach production.
