Chinese smartphone maker Honor has announced a new flagship device dubbed as the Honor 10 GT, an improved version of the Honor 10 that was launched in April in China. The Honor 10 GT will be launched in China on July 24 and is expected to go on sale soon after the launch.
The Honor 10 GT has 8GB RAM, up from the 6GB found on the Honor 10. Other additions include GPU Turbo and AI intelligent stabilization. The Honor 10 will also receive the two new features. GPU Turbo promises 30% less power consumption and over 60% boost in processor efficiency.
Currently, the GPU Turbo feature is being tested and the AIS will be available for beta testing starting from July 12. As per reports, the GPU Turbo feature will be rolled out for the Honor 10 starting from July 15 and the AIS feature will be available by July end or early August.
Considering that the Honor 10 will receive two out of the three additions to the Honor 10 GT, the newly announced device may not seem like a very big upgrade as the only difference will be in terms of RAM. The success of the 10 GT will depend on the price difference between the two devices and a major difference may be a deterrent for customers.
