according to digital chat station, honor is testing a flat screen with a 1.5k resolution and a high refresh rate of 165hz. this screen is expected to be installed in the upcoming new model of the gt series, which is aimed at the high-performance gaming smartphone market.
according to leaked information, this new smartphone will not only be equipped with a 1.5k + 165hz ultra-high refresh rate flat screen, but also feature a metal frame and 3d ultrasonic fingerprint recognition technology. some of its hardware specifications will be comparable to those of current flagship models. furthermore, the new smartphone inherits the product strategy of "extra-large battery + snapdragon 8 series flagship dual platform", pursuing a balance between performance and battery life.
for gamers, the combination of a 1.5k + 165hz screen is of great significance. a high refresh rate of 165hz enables the display of 165 frames per second, greatly improving visual smoothness compared to traditional 60hz or 90hz screens. this effectively reduces ghosting and stuttering in fast-paced swiping, shooting, and racing games, providing smoother operation feedback. a 1.5k resolution achieves a good balance between clarity and power consumption, reducing the burden on the gpu caused by high resolution while delivering fine-grained display and maintaining stable frame rates during long-term gameplay.
combined with an extra-large battery and qualcomm's flagship high-performance mobile platform snapdragon 8 series, this model is expected to address the battery life concerns common in high-performance smartphones and meet the needs of heavy users for all-day use.
