What we learned about Honor GT 2 from the leaks

The first thing that catches your eye is a record 24 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage. With such a margin, the new product will put some competitors' flagships to shame.

The new smartphone will have a capacious 8,800 mAh battery - a significant increase from the 7,200 mAh of the first GT. The smartphone will also support 100W fast charging.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 or Snapdragon 8 Elite chips are expected to be announced; the Pro version is likely to get the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite 2.

The insider reports a 6.7″ OLED LTPS display with 1.5K resolution with an ultrasonic scanner under the screen. The body frame is metal.

Honor GT 2 can become a serious player in the "almost flagship" segment: a massive battery, a top-end chipset, exceptional performance, and a large amount of storage. For those who value autonomy and comfort in multitasking, it looks like a strong alternative to flagships at a lower price.
