Honor Magic7 Pro
What does Jen say about the Honor Magic7 Pro?
The Honor Magic7 Pro is a great current flagship with an outstanding camera, a very bright display and useful AI features. For owners of the Magic6 Pro, the upgrade is only worth it for the AI. For anyone with an older smartphone, it is a good choice.
Pros
- Very good camera with a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto
- Very sharp display with up to 5,000 nits
- Robust display glass, ran over by a quad bike without scratches
- Magic Portal as an advanced version of Circle to Search
- Fast charging at 100 watts wired and 80 watts wireless
Cons
- Just as thick and 6 g heavier than the Magic6 Pro
- Smaller 5,270 mAh battery than its predecessor
- AI Portrait renders faces soft
- AI Zoom only works with internet

Honor Magic 8 Pro
What does Jen say about the Honor Magic 8 Pro?
The Honor Magic 8 Pro is a state-of-the-art high-end smartphone: the 6,270 mAh battery and the night shots make it one of the best phones of 2026 for Jen. Her biggest criticism: the AI for zoom and night shots only works with an internet connection.
Pros
- Huge silicon-carbon battery, iOS connectivity, outstanding night shots.
Cons
- AI features only available online, unnecessary camera button.
