Surprised by all the positive reviews. I got the phone last week. It looks beautiful & the display is nice. But that's it. Performance is TRASH. Laggy, stuttering, slowdown when surfing (especially when using opera/firefox browsers). Watching videos is horrible. Sometimes so much delayed latency issues. Its been a horrible experience. Battery like is weak. Charging twice per day. Youtube, twitter & tiktok all lag & stutter in both 90hz & 60hz mode. I don't even game!!! Dread to think how bad playing games would be. I foolishly trusted the reviews online. I now regret wasting the money. I am going to try selling it now. Hope someone will buy it from me. Can't believe i was duped into buying this. I'm NEVER trusting ANY reviews again. I should have known better.

How well would the "Honor Ram Turbo" ram expansion feature work with eMMC storage, long term? Wouldn't this just wear out the storage medium faster with the constant use?

Absolute trash. Honor have optimized the UI ok, but so much lag and slowdown when opening closing apps ,& on tiktok & youtube. Also battery is weak, and phone heats up. Only good thing is lightweight & design.
Honor 70 lite also now released. Specs & design are very trash too.

according to mediatek website, the g88 supports up to 64mp. so 100mp is useless.

Another one without microSD expansion support?! Don't care if this is claimed to have a "DSLR-like" camera. Don't think the Helio G88 has enough processing power to enable that 😂

It's embarrassing. They should be ashamed for promoting such a poorly specced overpriced device - and promoted solely on it's looks & iphone like design.
To think, the Kirin 810 from 2019 (honor 9x pro), and the Kirin 820 (honor x10 - 2020) were hitting antutu benchmark scores of 300k to 440k back then, to honor now offering a g88 chip in 2023 that barely gets 200k on antutu is outright shameful and embarrassing.
Why not use the Helio G99? The Dimensity 810? Heck, even the dimensity 700? All way way way better than a g88.
I hope honor improve - though by the looks of it.. I doubt it.

Bu... moreYes Snapdragon 680 is more powerful than Helio G88 but Helio is faster because of 2 cortex a75
680 is more efficient because of 4 cortex a73
Also Sd 680 is 6nm while G88 is 12nm that's why G88 is a power hungry processor because of 12nm fabrication with a power hungry architecture

Trash. Emmc storage & trash processor. No headphone Jack. No stereo speakers. Small battery.
Why would anyone buy this when you can get cheaper more powerful phones like moto g62, oppo a77 5g, moto g53, poco m4 pro 5g & so on
The askin price is a joke

Are you noticing lag with just general use?
Yes the G88 is vastly underpowered. Honor are ripping people off with the price of the x8a in the UK.
