The Honor GT 2 series is generating a buzz in the tech space ahead of its official announcement. Well-known Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station has shared new insights about what appear to be the second-generation GT phones, revealing chipset, display, and battery capacity details.
Honor GT 2 series chipset and display details
The leaks suggest that the Honor GT 2 series will be split into two models: a standard version and a Pro edition. The standard variant is reportedly undergoing A/B testing on two Qualcomm chipsets — the Snapdragon 8 Elite (SM8750) and a new Snapdragon chip with model number SM8845.
In a previous Weibo post, DCS described the upcoming SM8845 as the latest TSMC N3P (3nm process) chipset featuring a self-developed Oryon CPU with a full-core configuration of 2+6 (2 prime cores and 6 performance cores). Some of its components are shared with the SM8850 chipset. Its overall performance is said to be slightly lower than the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Rumors suggest that the Redmi K90 may also feature the SM8845 chip.
The Honor GT 2 Pro model, on the other hand, is said to be confirmed with the next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (SM8850), which is expected to launch in September this year.
In terms of design, both the Honor GT 2 and GT 2 Pro are tipped to sport a 6.7-inch 1.5K LTPS OLED flat screen with a 2.5D profile and a durable metal frame. The Pro model may introduce a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner — a first for the series — nudging it further into flagship territory.
Honor is expected to continue its large-battery strategy with the GT 2 series. Last year’s GT Pro model featured a 7,200mAh battery, and this year’s Pro variant may match or exceed that, promising excellent endurance, especially with the use of power-efficient chips.
