China’s Honor Unveils Moonwalking Humanoid Robot, Sparks Awe at MWC 2026

At this year’s Mobile World Congress 2026 in Barcelona, Chinese tech brand Honor unveiled its first-ever humanoid robot, marking a bold expansion beyond smartphones and laptops into full-scale robotics.

The unnamed humanoid robot walked on stage alongside human dancers and performed a choreographed routine to “Believer” by Imagine Dragons. In a moment that caught the crowd by surprise, it executed a moonwalk and even attempted a backflip.

While the robot doesn’t have a formal name yet, Honor’s vision for it is clear.
