Honor has launched the Honor X40 GT Racing Edition. The handset is entirely not a new phone but an updated version of the Honor X40 GT, which was announced in October last year.

Honor X40 GT Racing Edition Specifications

The Honor X40 GT Racing Edition features a 6.81-inch FHD+ LCD that supports a 144Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. For security, it has a side-facing fingerprint scanner.

Under the hood, it is fitted with the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform. This processor is complemented by LPDDR5 memory and UFS 3.1 storage. To keep the lights on, it comes with a built-in 4800mAh battery that supports 66W fast charging.

In the camera department, the Honor X40 GT Racing Edition offers a 16-megapixel selfie lens on the front. On the rear, it features a 50-megapixel main camera, a 2-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth-of-field lens.

With its sleek 8.45mm thickness and a weight of just 199.5g, it strikes a balance between a visually appealing design and portability. As can be seen, the Honor X40 GT Racing and its regular version from last year are packed with identical specs.
