Leading Android smartphone maker HONOR has announced details of its 2025 sales results, which reveal it secured a top-five market position in core Western European markets – including the UK – in the first three quarters of 2025.

‘Over the past five years, HONOR has rapidly transformed and captured attention across Western Europe, contributing to the impressive growth of overseas shipments from less than 10% of global volume in 2021, to nearly half in Q3 2025,’ said the company. ‘2025 marked a significant inflection point for overseas shipments, with 55% year-on-year growth in the first three quarters of the year.

Flagship devices have been pivotal to this success, with the HONOR Magic V5 securing a strong second place in Western Europe’s competitive book-style foldable segment.’

A detailed report, put together with analysts Omdia, can be read in full here.

HONOR recently released the Magic8 Pro flagship handset, offering a particularly strong night telephoto performance, and the Magic8 Lite.

In our review, we said the Magic8 Lite ‘stands out as one of the most compelling budget phones thanks to its exceptional 7500mAh battery life, easily lasting up to three days, and its flagship-level durability with IP69K water resistance.’
