Hold on tight to your seat, and prepare yourself for a long list of superlatives: although the DXOMark rankings have evolved a bit since this summer, the Honor Magic6 Pro remains a reference. The smartphone testing specialist awarded it 1st or 2nd place on absolutely all criteria: screen, camera, audio, selfies and battery. However, six months later, it has barely moved in the charts! It's high time to introduce yourself the Honor Magic6 Pro.
A photophone worthy of a Reflex
In terms of design, it's impossible not to notice at first glance the imposing round photo block on the rear shell, in the shape of a watchmaker's watch. There combination of 3 photo sensors promises absolutely remarkable shots, on par with the excellent Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, and much better than those of the latest iPhone 16, thanks to:
- a 50 Mpx main sensor (f/1.4-f/2.0, OIS),
- a 50 Mpx ultra-wide sensor (f/2.0),
- an impressive 180 MP periscopic telephoto lens (f/2.6, 2.5x optical zoom, 100x digital zoom, OIS),
- “AI Falcon Capture 2.0” technology, autofocus, digital stabilizer, maximum functionality for taking and editing images thanks to on-board AI…
…to achieve magnificent photos or videos in 4K @ 60 fps always with very beautiful blurs in the background, a beautiful width of field, sharp details, faithful and nuanced colors, and brightness in all circumstances. Honor wanted a model worthy of a Reflex: a successful bet with flying colors!
Everything you need to know about the Honor Magic 6 Pro
Exceptional screen (and audio)
Brightness still when we are interested in the6.8 inch curved screen: with up to 5000 nits, it leaves the best Samsung far behind, in direct sunlight and at night. The from OLEDs supports HDR, Dolby Vision, and IMAX Enhanced mode, a larger format that removes black bands when watching video for an improved immersive effect.
To fully achieve this, it was necessary audio to match: both speakers deliver exceptionally clear, noise-free stereo sound, both for listening and recording. Streaming, scrolling and playing 3D video games are a real joy.
Incredible battery, and the best chipset around
The vast majority of Premiums feature high capacity 5000 mAh batteries. SO with 5600 mAh under the hood, the only models capable of competing with the Honor Magic6 Pro are… other models from the same brand! In fact, there are 8 of them to rank in the Top 10.
The autonomy is therefore remarkable: in moderate use, we can last 3 days, even 3 and a half days no problem! Who can say the same? As for recharging, it is ultra fast: less than an hour 20 wired 80W, and barely more for 66W wireless charging.
Near her, we find the famous Snapdragon 8Gen3 SoC, the same one that equips the Galaxy S24, Z Flip6 and Z Fold6. It runs under the latest version Android 15, and will be supported by 12 GB of RAM: power and efficiency guaranteed! In short, we were won over, so take advantage of the Christmas promotions!
