In the second half of 2022, Honor introduced smartphones with GT branding. The Honor X40 GT was the first, which was soon followed by the Honor 80 GT.

A year later, these devices are yet to get successors. Instead, the brand recently released the Honor X40 GT Racing Edition.

However, there have been rumors of new models for months. Today, one of the company’s executives teased the arrival of next-gen GT phones on Weibo.

Honor 80 GT

Wei Xiaolong is one of the many important executives of the Honor brand in China. He has been the product manager of the Honor Play series since the company was owned by Huawei.

But today, he has changed his Weibo description to ‘product manager of Honor GT series.’ This suggests that Honor GT could now be a new independent family of smartphones from the brand. Up until now, Honor released GT phones under both number and X series.

Additionally, the executive shared an image revealing the ‘Honor Thanos Project.’ He is most likely teasing the imminent launch of the new GT handsets.

As per rumors, Honor will debut Honor X50 GT and Honor 100 GT. But given that these devices are now spun off into a separate lineup, we are not sure if they will bear these names.

Anyways, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station claims that they will be powered by Qualcomm chipsets. The X50 GT, in particular, is expected to house a Snapdragon 888 SoC and feature a rear design inspired by the Huawei Mate X5. While both of them are said to sport flat displays but the type of the panel is not known.

We are looking forward to learning more about these handsets in the coming days as they are nearing their launch.

The Honor X40 GT Racing Edition is set to go official tomorrow (September 21). Ahead of that, we recently learned that the brand is also gearing up to introduce the Honor X50 GT soon.

Today, a reliable source revealed some info about this next-gen GT phone from Honor. The person also disclosed something interesting.

According to Digital Chat Station, the Honor X50 GT will not be the only GT-branded handset from the brand. There will be also an Honor 100 GT.

Since there is no Honor 90 GT, we expected there wouldn’t be any new model in the series following the Honor 80 GT. But apparently, the lineup continues to live.

Further, the tipster says that these devices will flaunt high-end designs. They will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon flagship chips and will be available in high-capacity memory configurations.

Finally, he mentions that they will sport high-quality flat displays. But unfortunately, he doesn’t detail the type of the panel.

If these smartphones are indeed arriving soon, then we may learn more about them in the coming days. More details should be leaked via sources like certifications and tipsters.

But before these phones, the Honor X40 GT Racing Edition will be unveiled in the next few hours. This handset is expected to be the same as the regular Honor X40 GT with some design changes and different memory configurations.

Earlier this year, Honor announced the Honor Magic Vs foldable phone. The company went on to announce the more powerful Honor Magic V2 with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 onboard in the previous week.

Additionally, details have emerged regarding the launch timeframe of Honor’s first flip phone with a foldable screen.

Huawei Mate Xs 2

According to trusted tipster Digital Chat Station, Honor’s upcoming foldable phone will feature an externally foldable design like the Huawei Mate Xs 2. The device is expected to have a sleek and slim profile, boasting a 2K resolution display with eye-protection support. Digital Chat Station claims that this foldable phone will directly compete with other smartphones sporting smaller foldable screens. It is likely that this device is the Honor Magic V Slim, as hinted by another tipster named Teme.

Honor Magic Flip, Honor 100 GT

Furthermore, Digital Chat Station revealed that following the release of the Honor Magic V Slim, Honor plans to launch their vertically foldable phone, referred to as the Magic Flip. After the flip phone, the company will introduce a GT series device, potentially named the Honor 100 GT, claims DCS. Interestingly, it appears that Honor may skip the Honor 90 GT moniker for this particular release.

According to Teme, the Magic V Slim is slated for an October 2023 launch. As for the Magic Flip, it is expected to make its debut in spring of 2024, possibly in February or March. Unfortunately, specific details regarding the specifications of these devices have not been disclosed at this time.

Honor X50 GT

In addition to these foldable phones, Honor is reportedly working on an LCD display phone targeting the Chinese market. This phone is likely to succeed the Snapdragon 888-powered Honor X40 GT, which was unveiled in October 2022. Therefore, the rumored device could potentially be named the Honor X50 GT.
