Honor looks ready to roll out its next performance-focused smartphone. The upcoming Honor X80 has just passed a key certification in China, hinting that its official launch isn’t far off. And the biggest takeaway from the listing is the size of the battery Honor plans to squeeze inside this device.

According to the China Quality Certification (CQC) database, the phone was approved under certificate number 2025010915830460. The paperwork confirms the X80 will feature a massive 10,000mAh battery. That’s a huge upgrade over the Honor X70’s 8,300mAh pack, which already earned a reputation for going well beyond a full day of use.
With this new bump in capacity, the X80 is shaping up to be one of the longest-lasting smartphones in its class — a device built for people who hate battery anxiety or spend hours gaming, streaming, or staying connected on the go.

The certification also confirms 5G support, which isn’t surprising at this point, but still checks one important box on the spec sheet. Other details, like the processor and display features, remain unconfirmed for now. That said, earlier reports have suggested the X80 may bring improved performance and possibly some enhancements aimed at mobile gamers — continuing a trend Honor has been pushing through the mid-range lineup.
The Honor X70 was a success story thanks to its durability and standout battery life, managing impressive early sales after its launch. With the X80 stepping things up further, Honor appears confident in doubling down on long-lasting devices that don’t require a mid-day recharge.
Since certification tends to come shortly before an official announcement, we may not have to wait long to see the X80 fully revealed. For buyers who want stamina above all else, this one could be worth keeping an eye on.
