Honor 50 Overview:
Display and Design
Here, Honor 50 sports a 6.57-inch 75-degree curved AMOLED screen with a center-aligned punch-hole cutout. It has a Full HD+ resolution of 2340 x 1080. Pixels resulting in a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and 392-PPI density.
The panel brings a 120Hz dynamic refresh rate and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. Due to the dynamic refresh rate, the battery will last longer. Further, it has a contract ratio of 5,000,000:1, covers up to 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, and supports 10 bit 10 billion colors.
The phone is quite slim and light, measuring 7.7mm thickness and weighing 175g. There is a pill-shaped camera bump on the back housing a quad-camera setup and a LED flash. “Honor” branding is placed on the bottom left corner otherwise the rear panel is quite clean and pleasing. It is available in four different color options: Amber Red, Emerald Green, Frost Crystal, and Midnight Black.
Camera
Honor has highlighted the camera the most. As I mentioned earlier, it has a quad-camera setup on the back. The top ring on the camera module encloses a 108MP primary sensor with a 1/1.52-inch sensor and 9 to 1 pixel binning to produce 12MP images. If you want a 108MP shot, you can manually turn ON the 108MP mode.
The remaining three sensors are not so interesting. There is an 8MP ultrawide lens and a pair of 2MP units for macro shots and depth data. There is good news for vloggers, Honor has included a special Vlog mode that allows users to capture video from the front and back camera at the same time.
On the front, it has a 32MP selfie snapper with a 1/3.14-inch sensor. One interesting feature of the front camera is the portrait video that gives a bokeh effect to your video.

GPU Turbo X is a graphics acceleration technology of software and hardware collaboration, which can efficiently process game screens under low power consumption.
Rest of the Specs
Fueling the phone is a 4300mAh battery that has support for 66W fast wired charging. According to the company, the 66W charger can charge the phone from 0 to 70 percent in just 20 minutes.
