Honor is going all in on its \u201cAlpha Plan\u201d in a strange yet terrifying teaser video of its in-progress AI phone, the \u201cRobot Phone.\u201d In the process, the company makes design choices that bear striking resemblances to existing IPs.<\/p>\n
Alongside the Magic 8 series, Honor teased a new phone currently in the works. It\u2019s built on AI, and it isn\u2019t subtle. The teaser video shows a device that \u201cwill redefine future human-machine interaction and coexistence.\u201d<\/p>\n
The video starts with a quick snippet of text that immediately reads \u201ciPhone.\u201d The company is alluding to a next-gen device that takes current flagships further. That text transitions to \u201cAiPhone\u201d in a \u201cor so you thought\u201d moment.<\/p>\n
The next scene showcases what looks like the Honor Magic 8<\/a> but soon transitions into something that looks all too familiar. It isn\u2019t exactly the same, but Honor\u2019s Robot Phone looks a lot like the iPhone 17 Pro. It\u2019s a passing resemblance, and the design is making its way through Chinese manufacturers as the new norm.<\/p>\n \tAdvertisement – scroll for more content<\/p>\n Apple homage aside, the next shot shows another very familiar piece of IP. It might not be exact, but it looks like the back of the Robot Phone bears something very similar to the Sony Alpha logo, which the company uses on its mirrorless camera lineup.<\/p>\n Even further, Honor touts the Robot Phone as the next step in its \u201cAlpha Plan,\u201d which aims to bridge the gap between user value and AI models.<\/p>\n The rest of the video remains weird. A gimbal camera emerges from the back of the Robot Phone with the infantile curiosity of a puppy, complete with head-tilts and audible noises of wonder. Honor seems to be trying to convey the autonomous nature of the unreleased device.<\/p>\n The gimbal and the underlying AI model appear to be able to pan and tilt without command. Several scenes in the video highlight AI-generated scenarios in which the Robot Phone captures content on its own while the user nearby simply takes it in.<\/p>\n The concept is neat, though the logistics of a compact gimbal tightly folded underneath a portion of the rear camera array present its own challenges. It is a teaser video, after all, but Honor seems confident in its arrival.<\/p>\n Honor notes that more information will become clear at MWC 2026, where the company plans to release more details about the AI phone<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Honor-Robot-Phone-clips-2.jpg\")
