Editorial report

Honor Magic 5 8 GB / 256 GB / China / PGT-AN00 technical sheet

The Honor Magic5 suits buyers seeking a premium phone with a standout display, versatile cameras, and broad connectivity. The key trade-off in this China-market version is that it has no Google Services, which matters to anyone who relies on Google apps and services.

Its 6.73″ OLED display has 439 ppi and a peak brightness of 1600 nits: pixel density is among the best for phones from the same time, while brightness is better than most. The 7.8 mm body is also among the thinnest of its time. A 120 Hz refresh rate is typical for phones launched around then. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and 8 GB of RAM accompany an AnTuTu result of 1,752,206, among the best for phones from the same period. Connectivity is among the best, with Wi-Fi 7 and 5G.

The camera system includes a 54 MP main camera with a 1/1.49″ sensor and optical image stabilization; its resolution and sensor size are better than most phones from the same time. A telephoto camera adds 2.5x optical zoom, among the best. The main camera’s f/1.9 aperture, however, is worse than most. The 5100 mAh battery and 66 W charging are better than those of most phones from the same period. With a NeoScore of 7.6, the Magic5 is a strong fit for buyers who prioritize the display, performance, and camera versatility, provided the lack of Google Services is acceptable.
