Honor X40 has been popular recently. It has an OLED curved screen at a price of 1,000 yuan, and it is also remarkable in terms of appearance. Therefore, some old Honor users are more excited and want to replace the Honor X10 in their hands with Honor X40. Some netizens agree with this, and some netizens think this is a reverse upgrade and it is completely unnecessary. So what is the difference between Honor X40 and Honor X10, and is it worth changing?

Honor X40 uses Snapdragon 695 processor, 6.67-inch OLED centered hole-punched curved screen, 120Hz refresh rate, supports 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, front 8MP camera, rear dual camera, 50MP main camera + 2MP, 5100mAh battery, 40W fast charging, under-screen fingerprint recognition, about 172 grams.

Honor X10 uses Kirin 820 processor, 6.63-inch LCD full screen, 90Hz refresh rate, front 16MP lifting camera, rear 3 camera, 40MP ultra-photosensitive main camera (IMX 600) + 8MP ultra-wide angle + 2MP, 4300mAh battery, 22.5W fast charging, side fingerprint recognition, about 203 grams.

Compared with the configurations of the two, we can see that the difference is still relatively obvious. Honor X10 is more inclined to the online market and has a stronger material pile, but sacrifices the weight of the body, which has a certain impact on the feel. Honor X40 is undoubtedly more inclined to the offline market, paying more attention to the external performance of the machine, the whole machine has a higher appearance, a better feel, and has advantages in the screen and battery life. In the specific comparison of

, in terms of performance, Kirin 820 is stronger than Snapdragon 695. In the Geekbench 5 test, Kirin 820 scored 635 points in single core, multi-core 2433 points, Snapdragon 695 scored 670 points in single core, and multi-core 1886 points. It can be seen that the single core scores of the two are not much different, but in terms of multi-core performance, Kirin 820 leads Snapdragon 695 about 30%. In terms of

GPU, in the Antutu test, the GPU score of Kirin 820 was about 12W, and the GPU score of Snapdragon 695 was about 9.7W. You can see that Kirin 820's GPU score was more than 20%. Judging from the performance gap, although Kirin 820 is indeed stronger, it cannot be said that Kirin 820 beats Snapdragon 695. The latter cannot play, and the former is also very difficult.

However, Honor X10 has been released for more than two years, but the performance of Honor X series has not improved much in recent years, and it has even made a regression. This is undoubtedly a bit unpleasant. If you don’t expect a processor like Dimensity 8100, you can give Snapdragon 778G, or Snapdragon 7 Gen1. In terms of screens, Honor X40 uses an OLED curved screen, which has advantages in both display quality and screen appearance. It also supports 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, so users don’t have to worry about eye damage. Honor X10 is an LCD screen, but it adopts a lifting camera design to realize a true full screen. As for the differences between curved screen and straight screen in film and mist touch, this is a matter of opinion. The part of

photography is obviously not as good as the Honor X10 in terms of hardware matching. The main camera of Honor X10 is an IMX600 sensor, which also supports RYYB technology. In addition, there is an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens. In the dual camera combination of Honor X40, there is also a 2MP digital camera.

battery life part, Honor X40 adopts a 5100mAh battery + 40W fast charging, while Honor X10 is a 4300mAh battery + 22.5W fast charging. The Honor X40's battery is nearly 19%, the charging power is also higher, and Snapdragon 695 is more power-saving, so in the battery life part, Honor X40 has an advantage. In terms of

feel and appearance, Honor X40 has a relatively obvious advantage. The curved screen in front is undoubtedly more beautiful. The camera area on the back adopts a star ring design similar to Huawei Mate 40, and the weight of the body has obvious advantages, which can bring a better feel. In terms of the

system, Honor X40 uses the Android-based Magic UI , and Honor X10 can support the Hongmeng system.

In fact, Honor X10 and Honor X40 can be said to be completely different products. Honor X10 or Huawei is used to focus on cost-effectiveness and prefer the online market. Honor X40 has nothing to do with Huawei. It is a product personally led by Honor, and it is mainly aimed at the offline market.

Honor X40 has advantages in screen, battery life and appearance. Honor X10 has advantages in performance and photography. If Honor X10 is replaced with Honor X40, will not bring a comprehensive perception improvement. If Honor X10 users want to upgrade, the target target should not be products like Honor X40.
