Honor 400 series redefines portraits with 200MP AI Camera and next-gen features
From spontaneous moments to authentic expressions, the AI Portrait Snap and Image to Video technology bring human emotion to life like never before.
AI is reshaping how a lot of Mzansi is thinking about their smartphones. It's not the flashy claims that interests the country anymore, but the everyday connections. (Also, reducing FOMO). Rising to this need, the newly released Honor 400 and Honor 400 Pro introduce an AI-enhanced camera that works quietly but powerfully behind every shot. It's a new device building on the brand's focus on the future.
5 ways Honor's AI Camera puts South African storytellers first
Perfect timing, every time
AI Portrait Snap senses movement and expression to capture natural moments. Whether it's a sudden laugh or a reflective glance, there's no blur or the need for (edited-looking) filters. Turn photos into short clips
Image‑to‑Video, powered by Google Cloud's Veo 2, allows you to transform any portrait into a brief, polished clip in seconds. It's instantly helpful for sharing without editing apps. 200 MP clarity with no bulky extras
The impressive 200 MP main sensor teams up with AI tools such as Erase Passers‑by and Remove Reflection to deliver sharp images, with up to 30× zoom via the main lens. There is a hard-to-ignore 50× zoom on the Honor Pro version. Bright screens and long days
The AMOLED displays are once again a must-see, with 6.55 inches on the Honor 400, 6.7 inches on the Honor 400 Pro. These specs mean that the devices stay impressively visible in sunlight, while the large, silicon‑carbon battery (up to 6000 mAh) means you can shoot even when that sun turns into a moon. A phone that evolves
Here for the long run, they are powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 running MagicOS 9.0. The value increases over time with both devices benefiting from 6 years of Android and security updates.
Across lifestyles through Mzansi, the Honor 400 and Honor Pro offer more than taking great photos. They intelligently save time, tidy, enhance and animate, so content is less about gear and more about your needs. Coupled with the added R8 000 in value from the launch offer, this is a launch device that fits real life with real advantages.

Meet KAIIA: the South African AI with an uncontrollable obsession for KFC
The past few weeks saw a mysterious South African AI launch making headlines and causing a stir on social media. The AI, known as KAIIA, reported to be fluent in 11 local languages, trained for local nuance and fine-tuned to Mzansi culture, was leaked via a network of tech enthusiasts. Bongani Moropa, known as @Bonguhni, posted about KAIIA's fluency in Zulu, remarking on her odd obsession with food. Tech influencer Tyron Tech posted: 'This could be game changing for RSA'. In a surprising turn of events, KAIIA was revealed to be a KFC-obsessed AI in KFC's new for the Taste campaign. She stars in a film that shows, once again, the lengths that some will go to sample KFC's Finger Lickin' Good food. Watch it now: KAIIA is a large language model with the functionality of a normal AI. However, when you speak to her, you will soon find out that not only is she distinctly South African, but that she's also obsessed with chicken. You can engage directly with KAIIA here. KFC Africa chief marketing officer Grant Macpherson says the brand loves pushing boundaries and surprising consumers with its campaigns showing the lengths people (and now an AI) will go to for the taste of KFC. 'The Unofficial Taste Inspector campaign is one everyone remembers, and last year we featured scientists spending a year on Marion Island and pining so hard that two of them set off home in a dinghy on a 2,000km journey across stormy seas clutching a KFC shopping list,' he says. 'This time around, we wanted to tap into the conversations people are having every day —AI, or as I like to call it, 'Are the robots taking over?' The advances in AI are on everyone's lips, so we thought why not put it on everyone's taste buds too? Our idea is to ride the wave of relevance by creating a campaign that taps into the modern zeitgeist, sparks conversation, and gives Mzansi a chance to engage with the tech in a fun and light-hearted way.'
