HONOR X40 GT w/ 144Hz display, SD 888 now official

The HONOR X40 GT debuts in China equipped with an older Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, a 144Hz IPS display, and configured with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage.

The device also features an impressive thermal system with 13-layers of heat dissipation materials including the eight layers of graphite cooling pad, and 4000+ mm² liquid cooling vapor chamber.

Its battery is quite underwhelming though at 4800mAh capacity, but it does have a 66W fast charging capability. The cameras include a 50MP main sensor, 2MP macro and depth sensors, and 16MP front.

Of course, it has Google Mobile Services (GMS) installed as it runs MagicUI 6.1 on top of Android 12. Check out its full specs and pricing below.
