Honor Robot Phone’s launch timeline tipped, Arri’s involvement in video as well | Infinium-tech
Honor’s robot phone is still more of a concept device than an actual product, but the company has promised that it will be launched by the end of this year. It’s not a robot, it’s a phone with a three-axis gimbal for the main camera (we believe). There are still no specifications of any kind, Honor has only done a few demos here and there with very limited functionality.
According to a new rumor from China, the robot phone will be launched in the third quarter of the year i.e. between July and September. Given the state of the prototype shown at MWC earlier this month, we’d guess it would be closer to September than July, but we’d be glad to be wrong about that.
Interestingly, the Weibo tipster giving us the release window also claimed that Honor’s collaboration with Arri will be put to use in a robot phone for the first time, to combine its video recording capabilities with a gimbal, which will lure people away from iPhones.
