The Honor 10 is already a reality. The Asian company has presented its new flagship that comes to compete face to face with Huawei terminals. It will be a tough competition considering its rivals, the P20 Lite and P20. But the Honor 10 has possibilities, both for its design and for the power and especially for its price.
This new Honor terminal arrives loaded with news that we have seen in the high-end range. It has an attractive design and has the practically established Notch. Many may not like the "eyebrow", but it is a trend in the high range. It also has artificial intelligence and a promising double camera. We tell you below all the details of the Honor 10.

Honor 10, a design already seen but with a new color
The design of the Honor 10 reminds us a lot of the Huawei P20, but it doesn't have to be a bad thing. We find an elegant terminal, built in metal. On the front we have a fingerprint reader located at the bottom. The screen is used to the maximum and therefore we have a reduction of frames that gives rise to a Notch where we find the camera, headset for calls and sensors.
The screen has a diagonal of 5.84 inches in 18.7: 9 format with a Full HD resolution or 2,280 × 1080 pixels. It is an LTPS LCD panel that without having tested it we believe that it will have good colors and viewing angles. At the back we find the double camera accompanied by a dual-tone flash. The novelty of this terminal is a color in which it will be available. "Blue Wave" is the name of this color that depending on how the light falls, it will have shades of other colors that seem a totally different tone. It is also in black and teal.
Power with artificial intelligence
The Honor 10 is not short on power. It mounts a Kirin processor, the 970 that is capable of running at 2.36 GHz. In the section of RAM and storage we have two versions. We can choose between 4GB / 64Gb or 6GB / 128GB so there should be no storage problem since we start from the basic version with 64GB. Artificial intelligence is intended to help different functions of the terminal, specifically the camera is the one that is going to get the most out of this at first.
It has all the expected connections. We have NFC, Bluetooth, Wifi, LTE, connection for headphones and USB type C. It is also waterproof, it is IP67 so it can resist splashes and even some carelessness without any problem. The autonomy is given by a 3,400 mAh battery with Turbo Charge fast charging so if we run out of battery we can charge it very quickly and continue with our day.
Dual camera with one monochrome and one RGB sensor
Photography is increasingly important in mobile phones. The Honor 10 has a dual camera on the rear. One sensor has 16 megapixels with a 1.8 focal length and is RGB, which means that it captures all colors, the other sensor is 24 megapixels with a 1.8 focal length and is monochrome. We said that AI would be leveraged on camera and it is. They will use intelligent stabilization to ensure that the photos are not blurred. The front camera is 24 megapixels.
