Honor has officially confirmed that it is working on a new compact tablet for its gaming-focused Win lineup. The company has yet to reveal the device’s name or detailed specifications, although an earlier leak suggests that it could feature an approximately 8-inch OLED display and a high-end chipset.

Honor introduced the gaming-focused Win lineup with the Honor Win and Win RT phones in December 2025. The company subsequently expanded the lineup with the Win H9 gaming laptop. Honor has now officially confirmed that it is working on a new tablet for the Win lineup.

According to Lin Lin, head of Honor China’s Smart Life business, the upcoming tablet will have a compact form factor, with the company focusing on performance, weight, and battery life. He added that he has been testing a prototype with games such as Honor of Kings and Delta Force to identify areas for improvement. However, the executive did not reveal when the tablet will launch.

Leaked details of Honor's upcoming tablets

A previous leak suggested that the tablet may feature an approximately 8-inch OLED display with narrow bezels. The tablet is said to use a high-end Snapdragon 8 Elite-series chipset.

Separately, the company is expected to introduce another tablet with an OLED display and a compact form factor. However, it is expected to launch as part of the Magic series, which includes flagship devices like the Honor MagicPad 3 Pro (curr. $697.50 on TradingShenzhen). At the time of writing, Honor has not confirmed any details about the Magic series compact tablet.
