They also give you warranty along with other options.

        IpsDisplay, 17 Dec 2021I saw golden reviewer post this on twitter Maybe it'... moreSustained performance, more cores generate more heat, they could have surpassed 8 gen 1 in performance points, but not in real life, also it would damage your image again, that your chip after accelerating loses 40% of power...

          Makimaki, 17 Dec 2021Considering latest Honor handsets im not too sure into this... moreThe Xiaomi mi mix fold was 1300 dollars(for 128gb edition) with at that time flagship snapdragon and flagship grade cameras.

          Honor will use midrange cameras as it has with previous "flagship phones" from 2021 so it will cost 1300 dollars max. More likely 1000-1200 dollars which i think is fair.

          Biggest issue why i am not buying Honor phone is that they give only 1 big android update(so with this phone likely from android 12l to android 13) and 2 years of security updates. When they promise 2 big android updates and 3-4 years of security updates i will consider buying.

          Xiaomi will launch their next gen foldable 2022 which will likely get 2 big android updates and 3-4 years of security(and maybe even miui) updates. And with Xiaomi wanting only low margin of profit(it is super weird) it could be even cheaper than current one because cost of foldable components have dropped and are dropping every year.

            Anonymous, 17 Dec 2021And 3 years old A12 Bionic scores 1100 single and 2400 mult... moreYeah, because it has 2 les cores so it can boost much higher+ios optimization+cooling optimization for 4 devices

              Considering latest Honor handsets im not too sure into this Fold variant. It will be probably super pricey.

                      Maybe it's from mediatek themselves..


                      Man just imagine mediatek used ONLY 10 cores.... And is about 10-15% weaker in GPU

                      Makes me wonder why they didn't just use MAX fpu configuration and just take the crown

                      Maybe it's for sustainable performance
