For context, always refer to the full article.The brand's new flagship has a silicon-carbon cell that is said to boast higher energy density than lithium-ion cellsWith last year’s Magic5 Pro and this year’s Magic V2, Honor has been making a strong case for why it deserves to be considered among the top premium smartphone brands in the market today – next to Samsung and Apple.

I’ve had the Magic6 Pro for close to a month now, and it perhaps takes the crown of being the longest-lasting smartphone I’ve ever reviewed. Equally excellent is the display, a 6.8-inch OLED panel with an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate. It’s slightly larger than the iPhone 15 Pro Max’s display and about the same size as the S24 Ultra’s, which means you’re getting a whole lot of viewing real estate here. The panel being OLED also means you’re getting vibrant and rich colors with decent viewing angles. On top of that, it can get very bright and reach up to 5,000 nits for HDR content.

Let’s first take a look at the 50MP wide lens – the primary lens – which I think is the most interesting, with a sample image shown below. It has a variable aperture that switches between the default opening of f/2.0 and a wider f/1.4 for low-light situations. That’s made possible thanks to a mechanical shutter that opens wider or closes smaller depending on the setting. You can switch between the two settings manually in Pro mode.

The 50MP ultra-wide lens is great as well, which is another big win. A sample image is shown below. Some camera systems tend to suffer from color and dynamic range inconsistencies between the ultra-wide lens and the primary lens. That’s not the case here.
