Honor 80 Pro - Snapdragon 8+ Gen1, 160MP camera, dual front and 120Hz display starting at $490

As expected, Honor introduced the flagship smartphone Honor 80 Pro, but on the chip of the last generation.

Here's What We Know

The novelty is equipped with SoC Snapdragon 8+ Gen1, and not Snapdragon 8 Gen2, as announced the day before vivo X90 Pro+. The RAM capacity is 8/12 GB, and the built-in storage capacity is 256/512 GB. The battery has a capacity of 4800 mAh and only supports wired charging. It has a power capacity of 66 watts.

The Honor 80 Pro has an AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The 2,700 x 1,224-dot panel has a 6.78" diagonal and a cutout for a dual front-facing camera. Alas, the rumors of a dual 50 MP + 50 MP module have not been confirmed. Instead, the smartphone received a camera with a resolution of 50 MP + 2 MP.

On the back of the novelty is a system of three modules - 160 MP + 50 MP + 2 MP. The main image sensor has an optical format of 1/1.56" and pixel size of 0.56 microns. In pixel aggregation mode, the smartphone produces photos of 40 MP resolution. The 50 MP module has ultra-wide-angle optics.
