The claim
Honor will launch three Honor 700 models in China in November; every model has a built-in rear display, and the 700 Pro adds a stronger camera setup around a roughly 9,000mAh battery class.
Why we rated it Confirmed
From Weibo tipsters relayed by GSMArena: one says the event is next month and the series has three models; Digital Chat Station has repeated the 200MP camera and rear screen since August. The timing fits Honor's six-month number-series cadence (the 600 launched in May), but Honor has announced nothing. On Oct 24 Digital Chat Station added details he says come from an engineering prototype (codename 'Flora'): a roughly 9,000mAh battery, a 50MP periscope on the Pro and four test colors, while calling the November timing tentative. More detail from the same tipster, so it stays a Rumor. Update Oct 28-Nov 1: two Honor 700 models (FAS-AN00 and FAA-AN00, thought to be the 700 and 700 Pro) passed China's 3C certification, with a tipster saying a third is pending, which usually means a launch within weeks. Tipster Dingjiao Shuma (via Kuai Keji, Oct 31) says the series launches in early November with actress Ju Jingyi as spokesperson, a Snapdragon chip, a periscope and support for a 200mm teleconverter. Certification plus several tipsters agreeing lifts the November timing to Likely; the 9,000mAh battery and exact specs still rest mainly on Digital Chat Station, and Honor has not announced a date. Update Nov 3: Honor CMO Guan Haitao officially announced the Honor 700 series on Weibo, confirmed the 'Flora' codename and said it debuts 'in winter', without a date. Tipster Wangzai Baishitong says the three models (700, 700 Pro and a Vitality Edition) launch this month. The series is now official; the November date and specs are still unconfirmed, so it stays Likely. Update Nov 3: Honor's global CMO Guan Haitao officially announced the Honor 700 series (codename Flora) for a 'winter' debut, and Honor named actress Ju Jingyi as ambassador. A tipster says three models (700, 700 Pro, and a Vitality Edition) are 3C certified and launch this month. Honor still has not given a date, so the November timing stays Likely. Update Nov 6: Honor officially revealed the Honor 700, 700 Pro and 700S with a rear display across the lineup and opened multi-channel pre-orders in China (colors Cold White, Clear Sky, Blue Tone, Pink Mist; memory configs listed on deposit pages). A launch-event date and final prices are still TBA, so the product itself is Confirmed while the exact on-sale day remains open. Camera, battery and chipset figures are still mostly tipster-led. Update Nov 9: a new Honor teaser shows heart-rate and blood-oxygen readings on the rear screen (GSMArena); Honor has not explicitly confirmed health sensing, and Digital Chat Station says the rear display also works as a selfie viewfinder and for notifications and mini games. Launch date still TBA. Update Nov 10: Honor set the launch for Nov 13 in a Weibo teaser (Notebookcheck, Huawei Central). The November timing and rear screens are now official; the camera and battery claims will be checked at the event.
