What I think: - 8s Gen 3 naming is debatable, we can also call it 7+ gen 4.. OR as it has latest arm v9.2 & core x4/720/520 architecture like 8 gen 3, then there is no wrong to use 8 series number... - the GPU is of course comes from 8 Gen 1, overclocked to gain more power - the price is ok ok la... early bird that got it with rm180 discount + TWS + wireless charger seems to hit the best value to money price point - the screen is really amazing, i am stunned with the quality when i hold for first time - camera is decent, what important is that Honor used high quality sensor for main & telephoto one + OIS, quality can be improved with update & GCam (hopefully) - design is also nice but errrr i hate the camera design.. haha, and wish it comes also in darker colour like black or dark grey - Honor SuperCharger is not the fastest in the market, so eventhough it has such high rating, we can safely assumed it doesnt utilize the full peak power 100 watt at all battery %... Oneplus/Oppo are the king in this battery part, their 100W can beat the 120W from other manufacturer.. Will I buy? Maybe.. but we have currently heavily discounted Iqoo 12 with 8 Gen 3 (and also respectable camera setup) at the same price range 2-5k-2-7k... though time for Honor
thanks for the review. realized that the front and back glass is not of gorilla glass or victus quality, and it has a 1-year warranty against breakage. is Honor not confident of its front and back glass? is that something potential buyers should be mindful of?
It's better to buy something like iqoo Neo 9 or OnePlus ace 3 if you are gaming. I got the Neo 9 from china for 2565 rmb during 618 sales. Honor 200 pro was above 3k.
I will say choose 13T pro for: - IP68 water dust resistance rating - Dimensity 9200+ real flagship chipset - faster 120W charger - longer 4 years OS update 5 years security update - Hyper OS has more jam packed features - reliable Triple Leica camera - cheaper by +-RM500 at the moment
Absolutely hate the low placed FP sensor... I dunno why companies place it so low... My next phone i want to avoid it and go for ones that have it placed just below the middle.
I think the review is lacking and not on point. The focus of the 200 or 200 Pro should be of cos the cameras and the colabs with Harcourt. I do agree 8s Gen 3 so far appear to be a disappointing SoC, it appears relative strong on marking but not really show a lot better than 7 Gen 3 on both gpu(gaming). But Honor 200 Pro is likely the 2nd or 3rd phones using that SoC, and we may see the full potential after later updates. But right now the Honor 200 (using 7 Gen 3) is likely the better deal with the exact same cameras system.
I really don't care about the collaboration. If the camera is good, then it's good. And a phone is more than just the cameras, that's why we talk about other things
They need to make the gen 3s less powerful than then gen 2 since the later is a flagship chip and also strategically, else there is no point getting a flagship chip only to be beaten or on par with the following year's chip. N cost plays a big factor as well. Snapdragon is just being cheeky n misleading by labelling it as a flagship.
The SOC is good enough I suppose. Plus this is a full 512GB variant so pretty maxed out at least. Of course we could get the same chips for less on the Poco F6 and a little more we'd get a promotioned iQoo 12 too with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The phone decent, still better than most phones with only dual camera systems and 2 useless cameras we had in the past. It's decent but not spectacular for it's price.
Inaccurate review. Honor 200 pro is a midrange not a flagship that has to be perfect in every aspect. You crush everything about it. You need to use your judgement on value for money perspective not comparing to what you have in your mind based on flagships you used or you are currently using
@@NasiLemakTech most of your videos are in to gaming than the main purpose of the phone. If you need gaming phone, you should buy one designed for such specific purpose. I find it crazy to expect a phone to perform more than a computer. If you want to play games, buy a computer designed for such purpose. A phone is mainly for calls, camera for small memories and social media. We don't expect it to be like designated devices for that purpose
I had all Samsung flagships My best Samsung was S23U great great chipset, stability, battery life , no throttling My worst S24U lot lot of heating, poor battery life, poor brightness etc etc Buy anything with Snapdragon Gen 2 - great chipset
As I anticipated last year, "the real value of smartphones (high-ends) with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will appear in 1-2 years, and will be a real problem for future "mid-ranges", none of this year's mid-ranges offer as much value as last year's S23/S23+, Oneplus 11 and other past high-ends with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 🤷🏽♂️ This Honor looks too much like a scam, and even the Honor Magic 5 Pro is currently a better deal than it.
Honestly, you might be right. 8 Gen 2 is arguably better than the 8 Gen 3 when it comes to gaming and sustained performance. And mid-to-high-range phones this year is rather disappointing honestly.
For me POCO phones are bad buys. Don't get me wrong, I was a former consumer of their phones but it just doesn't last long. Got faulty ones and many people on reddit felt the same. So I'm moving to Honor
