TL;DR HONOR has detailed camera specs for its upcoming Robot Phone.
The phone has a 200MP 1/1.28-inch main camera on a gimbal, as well as a 200MP periscope camera.
Other features include six stability-related video modes, plenty of tracking features, and LOGC3 encoding support.
HONOR has been showing off its Robot Phone since March 2026, featuring a full-blown gimbal camera setup attached to a smartphone. We’ve seen a few notable leaks since then, but the firm has now officially announced camera specs for the new device.
HONOR held a camera technology event in China (h/t: Weibo), where it announced a slew of camera details for the Robot Phone. Perhaps the most notable news is confirmation that the phone will have a 200MP gimbal-mounted main camera (f/1.6, 1/1.28-inch).
This sensor lags behind Sony’s LYT-901 in terms of pure size, but it’s still large compared to most 200MP sensors on the market. The sensor size would also line up with the OPPO Find X9 Ultra’s 3x periscope camera, which used an Omnivision OV52A part. Either way, the combination of the gimbal hardware plus a large, high-resolution sensor should enable smooth videos while cropped. This would be an especially useful combo if HONOR uses a wider-than-normal field of view by default.
