Honor 8 Pro – affordable while capable of seamless QHD gaming experience

Famous for its gaming capability and as the official gaming device of hit MOBA Mobile Legends, Honor 8 Pro has caught our eyes recently. As we previously reported, Honor 8 Pro can handle graphics demanding games perfectly, but is it true? In order to find out the truth, we tested a few mobile games that require high-quality graphics and performance so here is our result:

HIT: Heroes of Incredible Tales on Honor 8 Pro

HIT is a hack-n-slash RPG by Nexon and NAT Games that features stunning graphics by Unreal Engine 4 and real-time dynamic action-based gameplay. The game allows you to challenge up to 200 campaign levels, participate in PvP Duel or 6-player Brawl Arena.

As the game is powered by Unreal Engine 4, you could expect it to be very graphics demanding but Honor 8 Pro successfully showed its cutting-edge graphics without any lagging. Below is the graphics settings (which we set the highest graphics available):

Rival Knights on Honor 8 Pro

Rivals Knights is an action-packed and visually stunning knight combat game by Gameloft. It is the only portrait game we used to test Honor 8 Pro and as expected, the lifelike 3D graphics are shown on Honor 8 Pro perfectly.

Rival Knights is one of the best graphics Android game selected by techviral. To show how demanding the graphics are, we have set the game settings for the best graphics and the result is satisfying:

Honkai Impact 3 on Honor 8 Pro

Honkai Impact 3 is a 3D action mobile game developed by miHoYo which offers complete 3D combat and console-quality gameplay. There are also gorgeous background and movie-like cutscenes featured in Honkai Impact 3, as you will be controlling Valkyries to battle against the enemies.

Honkai Impact 3 demands high-quality graphics and good phone performance in order to run the game smoothly. We tested the game with the best resolution and 60 FPS and there is not even a frame missed!

Asphalt 8 on Honor 8 Pro

As a part of Gameloft’s Asphalt series, Asphalt 8 is a mobile arcade racing that enables you to race in over 190 high-performance cars and bikes. The game features stunning visuals with real-time geometry reflection and HD effects too.

For racing simulation games, better graphics often results in higher satisfaction level. We test-play the game in the highest graphics available for the best gaming experience and Honor 8 Pro doesn’t leave us disappointed.

ArcheAge Begins on Honor 8 Pro

From the award-winning lore of ArcheAge, ArcheAge Begins is the latest MMORPG by Gamevil. Although there is no open-world like its PC version, you can still enjoy its highly detailed 3D environment and impressive cinematic scenes.

ArcheAge on PC is already asking for high system requirements for the best graphics, while the mobile version inherits the stunning graphics from its PC version. Using the best graphics settings, Honor 8 Pro is doing good in showcasing the high-quality graphics but unfortunately, there is a slight lag during battles.

Seven Knights on Honor 8 Pro

Seven Knights is a visually stunning RPG filled with exciting adventure from Netmarble Games. You can expect to see gorgeous 3D graphics with dynamic effects and diverse skill animations in it.

Seven Knights is one of the best looking mobile games released in 2015. Again, we test-play the game under best graphics condition and as the result, the phone meets our high expectation.

You would probably not be able to find any phone with better performance under the same price range! Honor 8 Pro is priced at MYR 1,999.00 (around 467 USD), you can visit their official website for more information.
