HONOR 400 Series Zoom Capabilities Wow Photographers in Early Tests

The upcoming HONOR 400 Series is already generating significant buzz ahead of its official launch on 22 May 2025, with its exceptional ultra-clear AI photography capabilities taking center stage. Few Malaysian photographers were granted exclusive early access to the highly anticipated HONOR 400 Pro, and their initial experiences highlight the phone’s powerful camera system, particularly the innovative AI Super Zoom feature.

Among the impressed early testers was renowned photographer Nazer Noor, who shared his positive experience on Facebook following his trial run with the HONOR 400 Pro. Despite its positioning as a mid-range smartphone, Nazer lauded the device’s astounding camera features, specifically pointing out the surprisingly remarkable 50x zooming ability. During his testing, he utilized the smartphone to capture a diverse range of subjects, including breathtaking landscapes, intricate nature shots, and dynamic urban cityscapes. These images effectively showcased the AI Super Zoom feature, which provides an impressive focal length range spanning from 15x to 50x.

Flagship-level Camera Greatness

The HONOR 400 Pro pushes photography boundaries with its remarkable 200MP Super Sensing Main Camera. This powerful lens boasts a large 1/1.4-inch super sensor and a wide f/1.9 aperture. Furthermore, optical image stabilization (OIS) and electronic image stabilization (EIS) work together to deliver exceptional clarity, even in dimly lit settings. For detailed close-ups, a 50MP AI Telephoto Camera featuring a Sony IMX856 sensor and 3x optical zoom with OIS captures stunning zoomed-in shots. The 12MP Ultra-Wide and Macro Camera effortlessly captures expansive vistas and intricate close-ups while the 50MP Portrait Selfie Camera guarantees flawless solo or group self-portraits. “The HONOR Number Series has a history focusing mainly on its portrait capabilities, and there seems to be more features added to the 400 Series. I am pleased with the smartphone’s capability on par with a flagship,” Nazer said. 

Next-gen AI Imaging Delivering Creative Possibilities

Beyond its impressive camera system, the HONOR 400 Pro packs a set of unparalleled AI Editing tools. Notably, its industry-leading AI Image to Video feature, fueled by Google Cloud AI, can bring still images to life as videos. This eliminates the need for external apps, as the HONOR 400 Pro integrates AI editing capabilities like AI Eraser 2.0, AI Cutout, AI Outpainting, and AI Upscale directly into the device. Moreover, users can uniquely preserve cherished memories with Moving Photo Collage, a groundbreaking feature that combines two to nine moving photos to create engaging stories. For striking and artistically lit portraits, Harcourt Studio 2.0 provides a range of creative options.

Arrive in Three Variants

The HONOR 400 Series will come in three distinct models. This range of options ensures users can find the perfect fit for their individual requirements. The top-tier Pro version boasts a substantial 24GB of RAM, incorporating HONOR’s 12GB Turbo RAM technology, along with a spacious 512GB of internal storage. Meanwhile, the standard HONOR 400 will offer two configurations, both featuring 24GB of RAM (including 12GB HONOR Turbo RAM) and either 256GB or 512GB of ROM.
