According to data, Honor has specially developed a miniaturized motor that is 70% smaller, driving this precise mechanical arm to perform actions like nodding, tilting, and rotating. Crafted from high-strength materials rated at 2800MPa, it guarantees durability with a simulation accuracy of 0.001mm. When not in use, the entire mechanical arm can be neatly tucked away inside the camera island on the back, making it convenient for everyday carry.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"825\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7.jpg\" alt=\"Honor Robot Phone\" class=\"wp-image-940925\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7.jpg 825w, https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/ztylezman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ztylezman.com_honor-robot-phone-2-4dof-7-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s worth noting that Honor has drawn inspiration from its own foldable phone hinge engineering technology, miniaturizing it and repurposing it as an artificial joint, enabling the entire module to operate within a limited chassis thickness.
