HONOR will reveal its first humanoid robot at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2026.

It hasn’t been a year since HONOR announced entering robotics development, and soon, the manufacturer will officially have its first humanoid robot.

The appearance of the robot can already be previewed in HONOR’s 39-second teaser clip below:

Notably, the narration says “Believe in the magic”. This could suggest HONOR is also naming the robot after its flagship series.

This is on top of the much anticipated HONOR Robot Phone, which has been previewed as early as October 2025 (and also seen on the clip).

This AI-powered robot phone features a built-in, 3-axis gimbal which supports the camera system and can “interact” with the user.

HONOR will also officially announce the HONOR Magic V6, its latest flagship foldable with enhanced durability, larger battery, and even slimmer design.

Plus, two more AI-powered devices will join the ecosystem: the HONOR MagicPad4 and HONOR MagicBook Pro 14. These boost productivity with superior performance in ultra-slim form factors.

All aforementioned products advance HONOR’s Alpha Plan vision of a synergized human-machine future.

They will officially be unveiled during HONOR’s Keynote Launch Event themed “Believers in AI Future” on March 1.

It will be held at the Palau de Congressos de Barcelona starting at 1:00 PM CET.

This 2026, TECNO is refreshing its performance-focused POVA lineup by adding a new member in it.

Big power without the bulk

Despite its slim and curved 7.42mm design (and weight of only 195g), the POVA Curve 2 5G arrives with TECNO’s largest battery yet — 8000mAh battery to be precise.

TECNO says the battery is TÜV SÜD-certified for long lifespan and is engineered to last up to six years. It’s also rated to operate in extreme temperatures ranging between as hot as 60°C (140ºF) or as cold as -20ºC (-4ºF).

If you’re already in a pinch, there’s the 45W fast charging with Bypass charging support in tow.

Durability was not compromised as it has a Corning Gorilla Glass 7i Front Glass protection, IP64 water and dust resistance rating, even SGS-certification for 1.5m drop protection.

Speaking of front, it features a curved 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate. Beneath that glass lies MediaTek’s Dimensity 7100 5G SoC.

On the software side, it runs the latest HiOS 16 (based on Android 16) with integrated AI tools in mind. That means AI-powered content summaries, writing assistance, call noise reduction, and automatic photo enhancements.

TECNO’s Ella AI Assistant has also been improved with more personalized interactions across the system. One-tap FlashMemo also exists for instantly capturing on-screen information. Moreover, Mind Hub organizes notes and AI-generated content in one place.

Lastly, connectivity gets a boost, too. With POVA Curve 2 5G’s dual-signal enhancement, it has an improved cellular and Wi-Fi performance in crowded or weak-signal environments. Interestingly, it also supports offline voice, text, and image communication up to 1.5km in open areas.

With all these in mind, TECNO promises two major Android OS upgrades.

Pricing and Availability

The TECNO POVA Curve 2 5G comes in three colorways: Melting Silver, Storm Titanium, and Mystic Purple.

It launches first in India this February 2026. Pricing is between INR 31,999 and INR 34,999 for the 8+128GB and 8+256GB configurations respectively.

It will also make an appearance at MWC 2026 this upcoming March 2 until March 5, 2026.
