1. IP rating which enhance durability like Samsung
2. 512gb like Honor x8b
3. Ultrawide camera
4. Zoom Camera
5. Gorilla Glass

    "For that price, you are getting Snapdragon 8 gen 2 also with bigger storage, then why should not we expect it."

    I understand the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 or whatever, but the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is a flagship SoC, why would it be put in a phone priced at $395? That is a midrange price point.

    Even the Gen 1+ would be too high for this price point, it's a good deal for the consumer, but as a business trying to make a profit, this doesn't make sense.

    These companies tend to get away with this since they have reduced costs compared to others and probably have bloatware. Skimp out on the rest of the specs and put in a flagship SoC to trick people into thinking it's a good deal.

    On paper specs don't always translate to real-world usage.

It gives the user the best performance day to day for many years, and let's the manufacturers hide the bloat of their OS under the brute force of the SoC.

      My question is why these kind of devices never make it to America, a market underserved by "high end SoC, mediocre rest of specs" phones.

Either it's poor optimization or bloatware that puts me off from flagship killers. Or it's poor quality control and shoddy hardware

                    This phone, however, has an excellent chipset for its price and mediocre specifications. Brands should understand that people prefer a better smartphone experience over an infamous flagship chipset

                        "Matrix AI Vision Camera"? LOL. WTF is that?

                            Anonymous, 30 Dec 2023Expensive SoC + crappy rest instead of cheaper SoC + better... moreI'd rather get a somewhat decently spec device all around for that price. It's still a good phone regardless. Flagship chipset, 12 GB of RAM, big battery, headphone jack, 120 Hz OLED display.

                            Honestly, other than the camera with that 2MP macro camera, the phone is well spec'd

                              The Android Freak, 30 Dec 2023Honor always prices their phones a little higher than compe... more"Honor always prices their phones a little higher than competition. This was not expected as this is quiet old SOC. Snapdragon 8 gen 2 at this price was okay. 8 + gen 1 not acceptable."

                              This is a pretty delusional take. How is having a flagship SoC unacceptable? The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ is still a top tier SoC (despite it's problems) while the rest of the spec sheet might not be flagship, you still get some good specs like a 120 Hz display, plenty of storage, and 12GB of ram.

                              This is all for the equivalent of $395.

                              And you want it to have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 lol

                                      Being a midranger, it should have had a 3.5mm jack atleast.
