ZoomPhoto 1 of 1Honor
Honor Magic8
Honor's standard 2025 flagship trims the Pro's periscope for a 64MP 3x telephoto alongside a 50MP main and 50MP ultrawide, still built on Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. A 7000mAh silicon-carbon battery takes 90W wired and 80W wireless charging in a lighter 205g, IP68/IP69 body, though it drops to USB 2.0 and has not launched outside China.
Pros

- Triple 50MP main + 64MP 3x telephoto + 50MP ultrawide camera, with OIS on both main and telephoto
- 6.58-inch 120Hz LTPO OLED rated to 6000 nits peak brightness
- 7000mAh silicon-carbon battery with 90W wired and 80W wireless charging
- IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance
Cons
- USB 2.0 data speeds instead of the Pro's USB 3.2
