Honor, Oppo Eye Magnetic Rear Display for 2 Phone Series

4 articles · Updated · PhoneArena · May 21

Honor’s 600 series and Oppo’s Reno 16 line are rumored to support a detachable magnetic rear display, with Oppo’s launch reportedly due as soon as May 25.
Weibo images show a thin, disc-shaped add-on that snaps onto the back of a phone and is described as inexpensive, suggesting both brands are testing modular magnetic accessories rather than built-in second screens.
Proposed uses go beyond wallpapers: the accessory could act as a rear-camera selfie monitor or provide limited fill light for close-up shots in darker settings.
The rumor points to a broader push toward phone add-ons after Xiaomi reportedly dropped a magnetic camera-system concept for its Xiaomi 18 series.

Will detachable magnetic screens be a vlogging game-changer or just another failed tech gimmick?

As phones get new magnetic gadgets, can we trust them not to interfere with wireless charging?
