The new Honor Turbo 5G, which Honor is preparing to add to the Turbo series, was listed on AliExpress before the official launch. The company’s new phone, which announced the Win Turbo model, which stands out with its 10,000 mAh battery in May, bears obvious similarities with the X80 Pro Max in terms of design. On the other hand, the technical features of the device differ from the model in question. The AliExpress announcement includes most of the basic hardware details such as screen, processor, battery and camera. The listing also shows that the Honor Turbo 5G will be available as of August 17.
There is a 6.79 inch AMOLED screen on the front of the phone. This panel offers a resolution of 1200 x 2640 pixels and also supports a 120 Hz refresh rate. In this way, it will be possible to obtain a more fluid image, especially when navigating interfaces, browsing web pages, and in games that support high frame rates. Using an AMOLED panel provides advantages compared to LCD screens in terms of black levels and contrast. However, the listing does not include details such as the maximum brightness of the screen and HDR support.
One of the striking aspects of Honor Turbo 5G is its battery capacity. While the device has a battery with a capacity of 8,560 mAh, 80W wired fast charging support is offered. Although the capacity lags behind the Win Turbo with a 10,000 mAh battery introduced in May, it is significantly higher than many smartphones today. The extent to which the high-capacity battery will affect the actual usage time will depend on variables such as screen brightness, processor load and software optimization. 80W charging support can also make the charging time of a battery of this size more manageable.
Honor Turbo 5G comes with Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor
Honor prefers Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor in Turbo 5G. In the configuration seen on AliExpress, the processor is accompanied by 8 GB RAM and 256 GB internal storage. This hardware combination suggests that the phone focuses on daily use, social media, video watching and mid-level gaming needs rather than high-end performance. Despite this, Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 is an option compatible with the phone’s high-capacity battery in terms of current connection features and energy efficiency. The listing does not provide any information about whether different RAM or storage options will be available.
The camera system on the back consists of two sensors. While the main camera offers 50 megapixel resolution, it is accompanied by a 5 megapixel ultra wide angle camera. On the front, there is a 16 megapixel camera for video calls and selfies. This structure on the camera side reveals a simpler approach, especially due to the 5-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor, and the phone does not include a telephoto camera. Therefore, it seems that Turbo 5G focuses on features such as battery capacity and durability rather than camera diversity.
Another striking feature of the device is its IP69K protection degree. This level shows that the phone is designed to protect against dust as well as high pressure and high temperature water sprays. In addition, an optical fingerprint sensor integrated into the screen is used for biometric verification. On the software side, MagicOS 10 based on Android 16 comes installed on the phone. Thus, Honor Turbo 5G is among the models that come out of the box with one of the current Android versions.
According to the AliExpress announcement, Honor Turbo 5G will be offered in three color options: black, green and orange. While the start of sales date is stated as August 17, price information is not included in the source. The phone’s 8,560 mAh battery, 80W charging support and IP69K protection are the prominent features in terms of daily use; On the other hand, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor and 5-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera show that the device offers a more conservative hardware package on the performance and camera side. With Honor’s official announcement, it can be expected that yet-undisclosed details such as price, different memory options and sales markets will become clear.
