Credit: Hadlee Simons / Android Authority HONOR has launched the HONOR Power smartphone in China. The phone has an 8,000mAh silicon-carbon battery but maintains a relatively slim design. HONOR told us that it’ll share global availability details “in due course.” The first phones with silicon-carbon batteries arrived two years ago, and many Android OEMs have since embraced this tech. Now, HONOR has announced the HONOR Power, which offers a frankly ridiculous battery for a mainstream smartphone. The HONOR Power ships with an 8,000mAh silicon-carbon battery. That’s twice as large as the Galaxy S25‘s 4,000mAh battery and significantly larger than the OnePlus 13‘s 6,000mAh battery. The company even claims that the phone has a bigger battery than the iPad Air (29.6Wh versus 28.93Wh). The phone also measures just 7.98mm thick, excluding the camera bump.

It’s almost May, and in the Android world, that can mean only one thing: it’s almost Google I/O time. Google’s annual developer conference is always home to an onslaught of news and announcements, and I/O 2025 won’t be any different. In addition to expected talks about Gemini, Android 16, and Google apps like Gmail and Maps, we should also hear about Wear OS 6. Although we don’t anticipate Google to launch its next Wear OS update at I/O (it’ll likely be released later this summer or fall), it is very likely Google will give us our first glimpse at Wear OS 6 next month. And, hopefully, it’ll be a big deal. Last year’s Wear OS 5 update was fine, but beyond a new app drawer layout and under-the-hood changes to health tracking and watch faces, there wasn’t much else to sink our watch bands into.
