Honor considers 7-inch refresh rate screen for WIN 2 series revamp
Leaked information suggests Honor may upgrade the display of its upcoming WIN 2 gaming smartphone series to a 7-inch screen. The device is expected to maintain a high 185Hz refresh rate to compete with other high-performance gaming handsets.
Why it matters
Smartphone manufacturers are increasingly focusing on display technology and refresh rates to capture the competitive mobile gaming market.
A Weibo tipster went into some details about the upcoming Honor WIN 2 series and its screen parameters. The new-generation gaming lineup will be on the market by the end of this year, and its key specs continue to leak on the internet.
SmartPikachu on Weibo suggested that Honor could adopt a 7-inch ultra-high refresh rate screen for the WIN 2 series. If true, it would be a prominent upgrade over the previous-generation gaming models.
WIN 2 series will likely stick to the same refresh rate as its predecessors – 185Hz. But the highlight is the size of the display panel, which may increase this year.
185Hz refresh rate updates the image on the display 185 times per second. It provides fluid motion, lower input lag, and reduced motion blur over 60Hz or 144Hz.
