The Honor 10, by all means, is a compelling smartphone, especially for its price range. However, if we compare the handset with the newly launched OnePlus 6, the latter boasts a Snapdragon 845 SoC, which is definitely better from a long-term perspective and makes it future proof. The Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and compact form factor do give an edge to the Honor 10, but the OnePlus 6 offers a performance that is hard to match, even by most premium flagships. Interestingly, OnePlus is among the very few handsets that have been approved by Google for the Android P beta, which essentially ensures that the handset will receive future OS upgrades faster than many other phones, including the Honor 10. If we talk about camera performance, OnePlus 6 has a slight edge in its favour but the Honor 10 definitely doesn`t lag too much behind either. Further, the Dash charging feature provides an upper hand to OnePlus` latest flagship too. If we talk about the brand`s own Honor View 10 as competition, you get an Ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and the popular unpopular notch design for a slightly higher price with the new offering. Overall, the Honor 10 is an interesting smartphone that gets many things right, but might fall just short when competing with the formidable competitor, i.e. the OnePlus 6.
