Corning Gorilla Glass 7i
A glass designation specified for the display or front protection of a product.
IP68, IP69 and IP69K protection ratings
IP68, IP69 and IP69K are rating designations that, in the available evidence, are jointly attributed to a product. The source does not provide their test conditions, technical scope, or a breakdown of their meaning.
USB OTG (On-The-Go)
USB OTG (On-The-Go) is a connectivity specification that allows a mobile device to act as a USB host. According to available evidence, it is associated with the USB Type-C 2.0 standard and is documented as a feature present in mobile devices.
Galileo (Navigation System)
Galileo is one of the five recognized global satellite navigation systems (GNSS), alongside GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and QZSS.
LTE Cat. 18
LTE Cat. 18 is a technical specification category defining maximum data transfer rates in 4G LTE networks, reaching 1.2 Gbps downlink and 211 Mbps uplink.
Bluetooth 6.1
Bluetooth 6.1 is a Bluetooth version designation shown in the reviewed technical specifications. The available evidence confirms that it is declared for products, but does not describe its technical changes, architecture, or interoperability conditions.
China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS)
BDS is a satellite-based positioning system operating on the B1I, B1c, and B2a frequency bands. Its listing in device specifications indicates the device's ability to receive signals from this system on those bands.
GLONASS
GLONASS is a positioning and navigation system grouped alongside GPS, Beidou, Galileo, and QZSS within the family of global positioning systems. It appears in device specifications as one of the available navigation capabilities.
Wi‑Fi 6E
Wi‑Fi 6E is a connectivity designation identified in the supplied evidence. That evidence confirms its mention as a feature, but does not document technical specifications, operation, or capabilities.
ARM Cortex-A720
The ARM Cortex-A720 is a mid-range CPU core designed by ARM, typically operating at 2.6 GHz in modern SoC configurations. It functions as part of a multi-core system, complementing high-performance and efficiency cores.
ARM Cortex-A520
The ARM Cortex-A520 is an energy-efficient processor core designed for heterogeneous architectures. It functions as a sustained performance core, typically operating at 1.92 GHz in eight-core configurations alongside high-performance cores.
USB-C Connector
The USB-C connector is a reversible input/output (I/O) interface standard that defines the physical shape of the connector, but does not by itself specify the data protocol or electrical power.
OLED/AMOLED Display
Display technology based on organic light-emitting diodes that produce their own light, characterized by pure blacks and high contrast.
Wi-Fi Standards 802.11ac and 802.11ax
The 802.11ac and 802.11ax standards are specifications within the IEEE 802.11 family that operate in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, forming part of the technological evolution of wireless networks.
GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications)
GSM is a cellular technology standard associated with the 2G generation, coexisting in devices with other standards such as HSPA, WCDMA, LTE, 4G VoLTE, and 5G.
IP64 Protection Rating
IP64 is an Ingress Protection classification indicating that a device is dust-tight (level 6) and resistant to water splashes (level 4). It is used as a water and dust resistance certification in electronic products and portable equipment.
IP protection ratings (IP66, IP68 and IP69)
The available evidence associates the IP66, IP68 and IP69 designations with a water- and dust-resistance feature, but provides neither test conditions nor the technical meaning of each code.
UFS (Universal Flash Storage)
UFS is a flash storage standard used as internal memory in electronic devices. The evidence documents the existence of UFS 4.0 and UFS 4.1 versions, with 256 GB and 512 GB capacities in the 4.0 variant.
Ultrawide Lens
An optical component in camera systems designed to capture a wide field of view, characterized by a short focal length and specific aperture settings.
MagicOS
MagicOS is the user interface and customization layer developed by Honor, running on the Android operating system. Its latest version, MagicOS 10, is based on Android 16 and defines the visual and functional experience of the brand's devices.
Font Scaling
Font scaling is an accessibility mechanism allowing users to adjust text size in interfaces. In Android 14, this system employs nonlinear font size scaling and expands the maximum magnification limit to 200%, surpassing the previous 130% threshold.
80W Fast Charging
80W fast charging is a technical specification defining the maximum power transfer rate via cable. This standard enables efficient recharging of electronic devices and supports additional features such as reverse charging.
Silicon-carbon battery
Lithium-ion battery technology that uses a silicon-carbon composite anode to increase energy density over conventional graphite.
MIL-STD-810
MIL-STD-810 is a military standard associated with shock resistance that is used as a compliance criterion for product evaluation.
