The HONOR Power2 undeniably sports an iPhone 17 Pro-inspired design, featuring a similar rectangular camera island, and is also available in an orange paint job.

HONOR is calling it the Rising Sun Orange. Other colors are Magic Night Black and Snow White.

The subtle difference includes one of the sensors that is oversized, a different type of dual flash is used, and there is a "Power" branding on the island.

But that's not the main highlight of the phone. It is its massive 10,080mAh capacity, one of the largest you will find on a phone today.

According to the company, this is the first mobile phone to break through the 10,000mAh battery.

In comparison, most smartphones from last year are only equipped with a 5,000mAh capacity. This has doubled it without compromising its form factor. The previous HONOR Power has 8,000mAh.

This is even slightly bigger than the newly announced HONOR WIN with 10,000mAh capacity.

The processor is the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Elite. The memory options are 12GB/256GB or 12GB/512GB.

It is also teased to feature the 2nd gen Hongyan Communication system and industry-leading antenna specifications to enhance weak network signal by up to 200 percent.

According to rumors, it will come with a 6.79-inch 120Hz 1.5K LTPS screen, 80W charging, 50MP + 5MP dual cam, 7.98mm thickness,  and 216 grams weight.
