In the highly competitive smartphone landscape, the Honor 300 Ultra stands out as a device that masterfully balances luxurious design with top-tier performance. Unveiled alongside the 300 and 300 Pro in China on December 2, 2024, this model occupies the “Ultra” tier—a clear signal of its flagship ambitions (Honor, PhoneWorld).
Design & Display
Crafted with artisanal finesse, the 300 Ultra draws inspiration from traditional Chinese aesthetics. Honor refers to its motif as the “wilderness porthole,” combining natural elegance with ergonomic comfort (Honor). It arrives in Camellia White (often called Flower White) and Ink Rock Black (Charcoal Black) (Android Headlines, PhoneWorld). The phone features a sweeping 6.78-inch curved OLED display with a sharp full HD+ resolution (1,224×2,700 px), a 120 Hz refresh rate, and up to 4,000 nits peak brightness, complete with 3840 Hz PWM dimming and an AI-powered visual engine that prioritizes eye comfort (Gadgets 360, HeyUpNow, Honor).
Camera Innovation
Photography is where the 300 Ultra truly shines. The triple rear camera system includes:
- A 50 MP wide-angle main sensor with OIS,
- A 50 MP periscope telephoto (3.8× optical zoom, OIS) for incredible reach,
- A 12 MP ultrawide macro with autofocus (Gadgets 360, Gizmochina, PhoneBunch).
On the front, it boasts a 50 MP portrait camera supported by Honor’s AI-driven “Portrait Master” and Harcourt-style enhancements—ideal for capturing rich, expressive portraits in any lighting condition (Honor, Gizmochina).
Performance & Battery
Powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and paired with up to 16 GB RAM and 1 TB storage, the 300 Ultra is a powerhouse for multitasking and gaming (Notebookcheck, PhoneBunch). Its 5,300 mAh battery supports 100 W wired and 80 W wireless fast charging, refueling rapidly to nearly full in just minutes (Gadgets 360, Gizmochina, Honor). Honor also built in a vapor chamber cooling system to manage heat during intense usage (Gizmochina).
Extras That Matter
The feature list doesn’t stop there:
- IP65 dust and water resistance (Gadgets 360),
- Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint, satellite communication, Wi-Fi 7, NFC, infrared remote, and Beidou backup messaging (Gizmochina, Honor),
