Not long after the launch of the fabled Honor 90 GT and the Honor X50 Pro, the Chinese OEM has dropped another smartphone. This phone is an iteration of the X50 Pro and comes with an updated design and a few tweaks. Here in this article, we will discuss the Honor X50 GT, its specifications, its expected price in Nepal, and so on.

Honor X50 GT Overview

Design and Display

The Honor X50 GT follows a similar design pattern that the recent Honor smartphones have been following. As such, the phone comes with a large circular camera island on the back and boasts an IP53 rating. Meanwhile, the phone measures just 7.98 mm in thickness and weighs 192 grams. It is available in two finishes: Silver-winged Battle God, and Phantom Night Black. The Silver option has a yellow strip running through the middle of the phone.

On the front, we have a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. It has a 1.5K resolution spanning 1,200 x 2,652 pixels. Moreover, it supports a touch sampling rate of up to 1,200 Hz and a wide colour gamut of 100% DCI-P3. Other than that, it also offers a colour depth of 1.07 billion colours.

Performance

This smartphone packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 under the hood. It is an octa-core silicone built on a 4nm fabrication process. Moreover, this processor can achieve a peak frequency of 3.0 GHz. The Honor X50 GT is available in four configurations altogether i.e. 12GB + 256GB, 16GB + 256GB, 16GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 1TB.

The Honor X50 GT also comes with a 5,100 mm2 vapour chamber to keep the phone’s thermal in check. Lastly, we are getting MagicOS 7.2 based on Android 13 on the software front.

Camera and the rest

In the optics department, this phone comes with only two cameras on the back. The primary camera here is a 108MP sensor and it is coupled with a 2MP sensor. The auxiliary lens here probably serves as a depth camera. In the meantime, we have an 8MP camera on the front for selfies and face recognition.

For wireless connectivity, the Honor X50 GT comes with dual SIM, 5G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.2, five-way navigation, and NFC support. Meanwhile, for a wired connection, you have to make do with a sole USB Type-C.
