Honor says its upcoming Win RT 2 gaming smartphone will have a 12,070mAh battery. The device is part of the Win 2 lineup, which the company plans to introduce in China on October 21, 2026.

The RT 2 is set to support 90W fast charging, though wireless charging support remains unclear. Honor has not confirmed which processor the phone will use. Notebookcheck reports that it is expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

Honor has also shown the RT 2's design. The images show two rear cameras and a camera housing that differs from the flagship Win 2. Whether the RT 2 will use a single fan for active cooling remains uncertain.

The flagship Win 2 has a 10,100mAh battery and will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6. Honor also plans to introduce the Win Turbo 2 as the lineup's third phone, but has shared few details about that model.
