Honor is pushing its gaming-focused hardware even further with the official launch of the Honor Win2 smartphone and the company’s first Win-branded tablet. After weeks of teasers and leaks, the new devices were introduced in China alongside the Win RT2 and Win Turbo2, bringing high-refresh-rate OLED screens, flagship-level performance hardware, unusually large batteries, and active cooling systems designed for sustained gameplay.
The Honor Win2 is the standout device of the lineup. It features a 6.89-inch OLED display with a 1440x3104 resolution, a 185Hz refresh rate, and peak brightness rated at up to 10,000 nits. Inside, the phone uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset, with configurations offering up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.
For photography, the Win2 carries a 200MP main camera with a 1/1.4-inch sensor and optical image stabilization, along with a 12MP ultrawide camera and a 50MP selfie shooter. The device is backed by a 10,100mAh battery that supports 100W wired charging and 80W wireless charging.
Cooling is one of the phone’s most unusual features. Honor has equipped the Win2 with two internal fans: an upright cross-flow fan that can spin at up to 20,000rpm and a side-mounted fan rated for up to 31,000rpm. Honor claims the combined system delivers 284% more airflow than the original Win, helping maintain performance during intensive gaming sessions.
Other features include IP68, IP69, and IP69K dust and water resistance ratings, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, a customizable Win key, and a light ring around the camera that can react to games. The phone runs MagicOS 11 based on Android 17, measures 8.5mm thick, and weighs approximately 237 grams.
