If you want a gaming phone but only from Honor, go for the Honor Magic 7 Basic. The truth is, those extras aren't worth it unless you want to get the most out of photography, and that price difference isn't enough. And of course, the USB 3.2 with DisplayPort on the Honor Magic 7 Pro versus the 2.0 on the Magic 7.
