While HONOR is set to officially unveil the X9b in the Philippines today, the brand unveiled the flagship Magic6 series in China. Common features between the standard HONOR Magic6 and the Pro version include a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, up to 16GB RAM, a 6.8-inch 120hz curved AMOLED display with a 1.5k resolution, 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera, 50-megapixel selfie camera, and IP68 rating.
The Magic6 Pro’s 50-megapixel main camera comes with a f/1.4-f/2.0 variable aperture, and boasts an insane 180-megapixel periscope camera that has 2.5x optical zoom and up to 100x digital zoom. While its optical zoom is shorter than usual, the high megapixel count should allow the Magic6 Pro to get detailed shots even at 100x digital zoom.
Instead of a punch-hole, the Magic6 Pro has a capsule-shaped cutout on its display to house an additional ToF sensor for secure face unlocks. Wrapping up the package is a 5600mAh battery that supports 80w wired charging and 66w wireless charging, along with up to 1TB storage..
The standard Magic6 has a regular 50-megapixel main camera with an f/1.9 aperture, along with a 32-megapixel telephoto camera with 2.5x optical zoom. It has a slightly smaller 5450mAh battery that supports 66w wired and 50w wireless charging, along with up to 512GB storage.
