MrObvious, 13 Oct 2022I feel like an IPS display on a phone of this caliber (spec... moreIps isn't going anywhere , + it's a matter of preferences for some people not all of them prefer amoled

    I would probably opt for the Moto G200 instead of this X40 GT if I needed an IPS display with Snapdragon 888. The cameras ruin this one for me.

      So basically its what Poco x4 pro should be... But in other hand some of features are too close to older x3pro that still good choose as this x40 GT beside 5G and slightly better cpu doesnt have much compared to it...

        The GT could be a good global seller, if the price remains close to the Chinese price. The phone is more than capable, spec wise.
        Good job HONOR

          Anonymous, 14 Oct 2022Honor bots, be subtle at making the same comments to praise... more🥱🥱🥱😹😹😹😹 what’s new about honor, lol bots

            "The device also brings an impressive 8-layer graphite cooling pad which can cool the phone’s surface temperature by up to 1 degree Celcius."
            Really? Up to just 1 degree Celsius? Mmm, that's not a lot...

              Anonymous, 14 Oct 2022Why other OEM use LCD if they want 144Hz? Only Motorola so ... moreFor this price-sensitive segment it's all about what compromises to be made. Phones like Poco X4 GT and this Honor X40 GT sacrificed AMOLED to get faster chipsets, while Moto Edge 30 sacrificed chipset for its 144Hz AMOLED display. SD778G+ admittedly is still top tier, so Moto Edge 30 in my opinion is the better balanced phone between the 3 phones. If only it has a bigger battery...

                  Why other OEM use LCD if they want 144Hz? Only Motorola so far use 144Hz OLED screen.

                    "Runs the old but still capable Snapdragon 888".
                    I love comments like this one.
                    Ofcourse its still capable. Even a 7 year old phone its still capable. Since when we need only the most recent nm Cpu technology to browse internet and do the day to day basics??

                      Honor must be really desperate using 888.

                          Onanymaus, 13 Oct 2022Not that capable specs when we delve deeper. The Honor X40 ... moreI second this. The D8100 is efficient and capable in most mobile games, to the point that the Snap 888 is mostly a downgrade to it.

                          Maybe they have a stock of 888's that they need to get rid of? Anyway, unless they manage to have aggressive discounts on the thing I don't think they'll move a lot of units.

                            T-Dizzle, 13 Oct 2022The GT could be a good global seller, if the price remains ... moreHonor currently want £400 for the honor 70 with a SD 778. So I can't see it happening.

                              T-Dizzle, 13 Oct 2022The GT could be a good global seller, if the price remains ... moreNot that capable specs when we delve deeper. The Honor X40 GT has only a single speaker, no headphone jack and no ultrawide camera. All of those are available on the same price range Poco X4 GT. Dimensity 8100 may not have the raw power of the SD888 but it is more efficient and stable under heavy load. Realme GT Neo3T is another good contender in the segment for those wanting AMOLED display.

                                  I feel like an IPS display on a phone of this caliber (spec wise) makes very little sense especially as we're approaching 2023
