  • Vibrant 6.78-inch AMOLED curved display with 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate

What we don't like about Honor X50 GT 5G (16GB + 1TB)

  • Relatively slow 35W wired charging compared to competitors in the same segment
  • Lack of camera versatility, featuring only a 108MP main and a 2MP depth sensor without ultra-wide or telephoto lenses
  • No expandable storage slot, requiring users to commit to a specific internal storage variant at purchase
  • Some users report the camera quality for photos and videos is average or 'poor' compared to flagship devices
  • Absence of stereo speakers in some reports, with audio delivered through a single loudspeaker
  • Limited global availability as it is primarily a China-market focused model

Verdict

The Honor X50 GT 5G, in its high-end configuration, is a performance-focused smartphone featuring a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor and a massive 16GB of RAM paired with 1TB (1TB) of internal storage. It boasts a vibrant 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED curved display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, a large 5800mAh battery, and a high-resolution 108MP main camera. The main pros include its flagship-level performance, excellent display, huge battery capacity, substantial RAM and storage, and an IP53 rating for dust and splash resistance. Potential cons are its relatively slow 35W wired charging speed compared to other performance phones, the lack of expandable storage, the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a basic 2MP depth sensor as the only secondary rear camera.
