Honor Magic 8 RSR Porsche Design is reportedly said to be in development as the next entrant in the Magic 8 series. Ahead of the formal announcement, promotional images and launch details of the flagship have surfaced online. This Honor Magic 8 RSR Porsche Design will succeed the Honor Magic 7 RSR Porsche Design from 2024. It is said to feature a triple rear camera unit, including a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. The new model could come with Porsche design elements and a 7,200mAh battery.
Tipster Smart Pikachu (translated from Chinese) on Weibo claims that the Honor Magic 8 RSR Porsche Design will launch on January 19. The company has already confirmed it will introduce the Honor Magic 8 Pro Air on the same day. The leaked promotional images show the phone in a purple colourway, featuring a squircle-shaped rear camera module at the centre with three sensors. The design closely resembles that of the Honor Magic 7 RSR Porsche Design.
