The UnboxingTN Verdict
out of 100
The Honor Magic8 is a powerful, brilliantly equipped flagship with exceptional connectivity, though its heft and modest 3x telephoto temper the package.
What is good
- Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and 12GB RAM deliver flagship performance.
- 7000mAh battery, 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.
- 6.58-inch LTPO OLED reaches 5000 nits at 120Hz.
What is not
- 199g weight and 8.2mm thickness make the phone less compact.
- 256GB base storage may feel limiting for extensive media libraries.
- 50MP telephoto offers 3x optical reach, limiting long-distance framing.
