Honor Pad GT Pro unveiled with Snapdragon 8s Gen 3!

Honor, the Chinese smartphone maker, just launched a super powerful tablet alongside its X60 series smartphones in its home country. The Honor Pad GT Pro comes with a 144Hz OLED screen and flagship-grade Snapdragon chipset for a very appealing price. In this piece, let’s take a quick peek at the tablet, its features, and specifications, alongside the expected price in Nepal, and availability. 

Honor Pad GT Pro Overview

Design and Display 

The new Honor tablet is a sleek and portable machine measuring 5.8mm thick and weighing just around 550 grams. It is likely all metal on the build with options for limited colorways: Black, White, and Blue. The back has a squarish camera module with a single 13MP lens and dual lines running through the length of the device.  On the display side, you get a remarkable 12.3-inch 144Hz OLED screen with all the bells and whistles you could ask for. It’s super fast, very crisp, gets blindingly bright, and has more than 10 billion colors. Furthermore, pair it with Honor’s Magic Pencil Gen 3 to use it as a drawing canvas or your own creative hub.

Performance and Memory 

The performance also leaves no room for complaints as the Honor Pad GT Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon (SD) 8s Gen 3. It’s a 4nm processor similar in power to last year’s flagship SD 8 Gen 3. There’s a prime Cortex X4 core running at up to 3GHz, and a few A720s complimented some A520s. The GPU is a weaker Adreno 735 compared to the 750 in the 8 Gen 3. Regardless, for the price bracket it is targeting, this is one of the best gaming chipsets you can get and Honor has gone with the correct approach by providing a large 40,000 mm² heat sink surface and shipping it alongside up to a whopping 16GB of RAM and 512GB memory.  The tablet boots on MagicOS 8 based on Android 14 but we aren’t sure on the software support and number of updates just yet. 

Battery and Extras

Given the thin form factor, you get a respectable 10050 mAh Lithium cell with support for 66W fast charging. The Type-C port at the bottom is a USB 3 Gen 2 port so you can connect various external drives or other accessories, and there are also magnetic pins for the stylus.

The rear camera can shoot up to 4k 30 fps while the 9MP one housed on the front can go up to 1080p 30fps. Honor Pad GT Pro has a quad-speaker setup with IMAX Enhanced support for an enjoyable multimedia experience. Unfortunately, despite being frontline as a gaming powerhouse, there is no headphone jack, so you’ll either have to invest in a dongle or use Bluetooth alternatives.
