Honor 8 Pro- LeadthePack
Lead the Experience
Multimedia and games shine on the Honor 8 Pro owing to its 2K display
which boasts of the highest levels of color accuracy and detail – with
performance nearing the Hollywood cinema standard. The display features a high
resolution of 515ppi, 79% screen-to-body ratio, 16700K colors and 94.5%
coverage of the NTSC color gamut. Professional calibration brings the best out
of the display, with color enhancement technology, sharpness enhancement in the
display engine and a 2D image detail enhancer. With high contract of 1500:1, Honor
8 Pro ensures better color accuracy and enriched details in display.When watching videos on the phone,
Honor 8 Pro will automatically optimize the screen display and adapt the
contrast level to deliver the best cinema-like experience to users.
Immerse yourself in the VR world as this device comes bundled with a
cardboard viewer and an OTA update for the Jaunt VR app containing a wealth of
video content. Users can also dive into the exhilarating world of Galaxy on
Fire 3, with their own customized Honor Spaceship and enjoy 3D gaming owing to
the first of its kind Vulkan 3D API.
Despite its high performance, 2K display and slim profile, the massive
4000 mAh battery provides 2 days of regular use*,
and almost 1.44 days of heavy use. The high density (710 Wh/L) battery running
on the 16nm processor coupled with advanced power-saving features spell the end
of battery anxiety. The Smart Power 5.0 technology helps to maximize battery
life by automatically identifying and terminating processes with exceptionally
high power consumption, as well as minimizing power consumed by background
applications. In the meantime, it also manages alerts to optimize power
consumption when the phone is on standby.
Lead the Performance
The Honor 8 Pro is the highest qualified and best performing smartphone ever created by
Honor, till date. Running on the latest 16NM Kirin 960 octa-core processor
backed by 128GB ROM (that can be further expanded via micro SD card to 256GB),
ittackles the issue of fragmentation and lag that has long beset Android
devices.The Honor 8 Pro is improving the gadget’s CPU single-core and
multi-core performance by 10% and 18% respectively, making it faster to open
applications. The GPU performance is increased by 180%. Furthermore, the
EMUI5.1 enables the general optimization of Android and minimizes stuttering
issues.
The Honor 8 Pro has been engineered from the ground up to meet the
performance needs of today’s power users and gamers, with industry-leading
hardware and software that delivers extreme speed:
· The all new
Kirin 960 chipset features eight processor cores – four high-performance Cortex
A73 cores clocked at 2.4GHz and four
low-power Cortex A53 cores clocked at
1.8Ghz – that improve single-core and multi-core performance by 10% and 18% respectively.
· The Mali-G71
includes support for the cutting-edge Vulkan graphics, computes API
(application programming interface) and boosts graphic performance up to 400%.
Honor 8 Pro will run the most demanding games at high frame rates with minimum
lag and dropped frames, even in 3D.
· The new EMUI
5.1 designed for Android Nougat, constantly learns from your behavior and
habits. For example, if you tend to open an app at a certain time of the day,
the system would keep track and load the app in anticipation of your opening
it. Lab experiments show that the Honor 8 Pro retained its smooth performance
even after an increase in memory fragmentation and files, applications, and
associated application data and junk files. This shows that the Honor 8 Pro has
managed to successfully overcome the fragmentation issue usually associated
with Android-operated systems.
Lead the Photography
The Honor 8 Pro’s combination of cutting-edge hardware and software
culminates in its 12+12-megapixel dual-lens camera. The two lenses work in
tandem to always deliver the perfect shot: the monochrome lens captures a
black-and-white image with incredible depth of detail while the RGB lens ensure faithful and vivid color reproduction –
and sophisticated software brings the best of two worlds together. The camera’s
wide aperture range (f/0.95–f/16) delivers the DSLR-like
depth of field effects for both photo and video shooting. The Honor 8 Pro
brings perfect optimization of hardware and software to deliver that perfect
shot.
The device also supports 4K video recording, encoded in the efficient
H.265 codec, which produces files twice as small as its predecessor. Thanks to
the EMUI 5.1, Highlights-a new feature co-developed with Go Pro, intelligently
organizes photos by category and automatically generates video stories that are
easily customizable – making sharing memories a breeze.
Lead the Craftsmanship
The metal-bodied Honor 8 Pro looks simply stunning. Its tiny bezels flow
seamlessly along the edges, creating a visual masterpiece, which is also coupled
with a diamond cutting process using CNC for greater precision to create one of
the slimmest smartphones ever. Micron-level sandblasting and a 360°
high-pressure air polishing process helped to produce a phone that is extremely
smooth to the touch.
Despite supporting a massive 4000 mAh battery, dual-SIM hybrid slot, and a
14.47 cm 2K display, the Honor 8 Pro’s
ultra-thin 6.97mm metal body is a compact cluster of over 1,000 components, a
perfect blend of functionality and aesthetics. Its exquisite silhouette is
uninterrupted, with all parts, including the dual-lens camera, sitting flush
with the body. Whether in navy blue or midnight black, never has a 14.47-cm
screen smartphone looked so sleek and stylish.
