HONOR Philippines is gearing up to launch its latest AI-powered smartphone, the HONOR 400 5G, on June 17, 2025.
Poised to reshape the way users interact with their memories, the new device introduces an innovative feature that can turn static old photos into lifelike videos using advanced artificial intelligence.
A New AI-Powered Smartphone Experience
Unlike traditional smartphones that focus solely on performance and specs, the HONOR 400 5G stands out by offering a unique blend of emotional connectivity and technological innovation. Through the use of cutting-edge AI, the device can animate old childhood photos, adding subtle facial movements, blinking, and gestures—bringing memories back to life in a truly mesmerizing way.
This feature is the highlight of HONOR’s Image-to-Video Challenge, a campaign launched alongside the teaser to engage users across social media platforms. Fans are encouraged to try the challenge and see their treasured family portraits and vintage photos transformed into moving memories.
According to Stephen Cheng, Vice President of HONOR Philippines, “With the HONOR 400 5G, we’re not just launching another smartphone, but introducing a new emotional experience. This is the real AI phone, designed to bring your memories back to life and create meaningful moments through innovation.”
Reviving Nostalgia Through AI
The HONOR 400 5G arrives at a time when AI technology is transforming everyday experiences. While most phones use AI for optimization or photography enhancements, HONOR is taking things a step further by blending nostalgia with neural networks, creating a space where innovation meets human sentiment.
From reviving childhood photos to reimagining candid family snapshots, the HONOR 400 5G sets a new standard for what smartphones can offer beyond utility, inviting users to reconnect with the past in deeply personal ways.
HONOR’s teaser video for the phone—now circulating online—has already captured the imagination of fans, showing animated faces of children laughing, blinking, and smiling in subtle yet emotional clips. This early preview has generated widespread buzz across tech communities, influencers, and nostalgic netizens alike.
What to Expect at the Launch
The official launch event on June 17 will unveil the full specs, pricing, and availability of the HONOR 400 5G, alongside live demonstrations of the AI photo animation capabilities. Fans can also join the livestream and be among the first to explore the features that make this device truly unique.
With a history of releasing durable, camera-focused, and design-forward smartphones, HONOR is once again pushing the envelope by embracing AI not just as a feature, but as a core part of the user experience. The HONOR 400 5G is expected to build on this legacy and mark a turning point for emotionally intelligent devices in the local market.
