Honor has already released the first two phones in the Win series: the regular Win and the Win RT, both with active cooling fans and 10,000 mAh batteries. However, the Win Turbo just launched today in China focuses more on making maximum use of that massive battery. There is no cooling fan and the chipset consumes less power.
The Honor Win Turbo runs on the Dimensity 8500 chipset, which consumes less power than the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5 inside the Win RT and regular Win. So it’s not a device focused on performance, but on endurance.
The display is also different: slightly smaller with a 6.79-inch OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. There are three memory configurations available: 12GB/256GB, 12GB/512GB and 16GB/512GB. The camera hardware on the back is quite modest: just a 50MP main camera paired with a 5MP ultrawide, while the front houses a 16MP selfie cam.
As we have already highlighted, the laptop features a 10,000 mAh battery but, unlike the standard version, it does not support wireless charging. Additionally, wired charging is limited to 80W, not 100W like the other two Win phones. Honor says it takes around 90 minutes to charge from 0 to 100% using the 80W SuperCharge charger.
Another distinctive feature is the triple IP protection rating. The device has IP68, IP69 and IP69K degrees of protection against water and dust. In theory, the device can withstand even high-temperature and high-pressure water jets. That’s pretty impressive for a non-rugged device with a regular mainstream design.
Honor Win Turbo is available in three colors: black, white and blue. The starting price for the 12GB/256GB configuration is CNY 2,699 (€340), while the 12GB/512GB and 16GB/512GB iterations go for CNY 2,999 (€380) and CNY 3,599 (€560), respectively.
