Honor Robot Phone hits import markets with a steep European price tag

The Honor Robot Phone is now available for import in Europe and other markets, but imported prices are notably higher than China’s. In China the base 12/512 GB model starts around 10,000 yuan and the 1 TB variant around 13,000 yuan; imported EU prices shown by retailers range from about €1,740–€1,790 for the base model to roughly €2,203–€2,385 for the 16 GB/1 TB variant, with tax included at some shops (e.g., AverageDad) and unclear at others. Retailers listing the phone include Trinity Electronics, Giztop, and AverageDad, with shipping beginning August 19–20. Expect ongoing restrictions for use outside China (possible limited network bands, no eSIM, limited English support, WearOS compatibility issues) and reduced warranty/return options compared with EU purchases. A global launch is anticipated, likely at even higher prices.

HONOR & ARRI Unveil Cinema-Grade Robot Phone With Embedded Gimbal

HONOR and ARRI have launched the Robot Phone in China—a flagship smartphone that fuses ARRI’s image science with a fold-out gimbal camera, AI tracking, Spinshot modes, and professional post-workflow compatibility. The device features a 200MP main sensor (1/1.28"), 50MP ultrawide, 200MP tele, 4K 120fps, 10-bit LogC3, and ARRI-calibrated Cine Mode, powered by an H1 image chip on a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform, with a 6.31" display up to 6,800 nits, a 7060mAh battery, and 120W charging. Pricing starts at 9,999 CNY for 12GB/512GB and 12,999 CNY for 16GB/1TB, and it will not be sold in the US due to market restrictions. ARRI says the collaboration aims to extend cinema-grade workflows into mobile imaging, with more partnerships planned rather than replacing traditional cinema cameras.
