On Wednesday, HONOR, a global AI device ecosystem company, unveiled its Magic8 Series smartphones in the Chinese mainland. Marking the brand's first "Self-Evolving AI Smartphone" lineup, the series is led by the flagship Magic8 Pro model.
The lineup focuses on three key upgrades: intelligence, imaging and performance. Highlights include:
- YOYO Agent for automating tasks across 3,000+ scenarios—from sorting blurry screenshots to tallying expenses and emailing reports 🤖💼;
- A customizable AI Button for one-touch access to content recognition during video calls or quick camera activation 📹🔘;
- YOYO Memories, a privacy-protected personal knowledge base that analyzes your photos, chat records and documents 🗂️🔒.
On the photography front, the Magic8 Pro packs a 200MP Ultra Night Telephoto Camera with a 1/1.4-inch sensor—capturing more light for brighter, detailed shots of distant objects at night. HONOR’s AI anti-shake tech boosts your chance of clear zoomed photos by seven times without a tripod, hitting an industry-leading CIPA 5.5 stabilization level. Even if you’re on the move, your shots stay crisp like a pro action camera 🎥✨.
Plus, the Magic Color engine extracts 16.77 million colors—enough to reproduce most hues the human eye can see—so you can craft cinematic tones or personalized color styles 🎨.
Under the hood, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip uses AI to upgrade low-res, laggy games to 1080P HD at 120fps, meaning no delay between your moves and on-screen action 🎮⚡.
Powering it all is a massive 7,200mAh battery—larger than most flagships—easily lasting a full day of regular use. With three power management chips on board, it supports 120W wired fast charging and 80W wireless fast charging. A dead battery can go from 0 to 100% in about 30 minutes 🔋⚡.
In short, HONOR’s Magic8 Series is an all-in-one powerhouse for AI enthusiasts, photographers, gamers and on-the-go users. The future of smartphones is here! 🚀
