Editorial report

Honor Magic 8 Pro 12 GB / 512 GB / International technical sheet

Honor Magic8 Pro suits buyers who want a high-end phone with few obvious compromises: its strengths cover the display, cameras, performance, connectivity and battery. The main trade-off is its weight. At 219 g, it is heavier than most phones of its time.

The 6.71″ LTPO OLED display reaches 6,000 nits and 458 ppi. Brightness and pixel density are among the best of its time, while the 89.6% usable surface is better than most. Dolby Vision, Always-On Display and a variable 120 Hz refresh rate add flexibility. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, 12 GB of RAM and UFS 4.1 storage put performance among the best; its AnTuTu score is 3,647,824.

The 200 MP periscope telephoto camera provides 3.7x optical zoom, also among the best specifications of its time. The main camera combines a 1/1.3″ sensor, f/1.6 aperture and optical image stabilization. Its 7,100 mAh battery, 100 W charging and 80 W wireless charging are major strengths. Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, eSIM and satellite connectivity complete connectivity that is among the best.

With a NeoScore of 9.2, Honor Magic8 Pro is among the best phones of its time and suits anyone seeking a broad high-end feature set. Its launch price is above most of them, but it is fairly priced for what it is.
