What do you think about the Magic 6 Pro?
Do you plan to upgrade to this phone? If yes which phone do you have now? - Наука та технологія
Iphone user here. But im gonna buy this HONOR magic 6 Pro
5600mAH battery on a flagship smart phone is amazing 🤩 I also like the design .
Flagship? Only by price
1 best display
2 best batter
3 best speaker
In dxomark ❤
if u paid them they make #1 rank. Check camera vivo x100 pro - its a joke its get #8 place where for me its the best smartfone camera in 2024 even beating xiaomi 14 ultra and oppo find x7 ultra thanks to image processor V3.
But that's your opinions only right . Not using tech Equipment to test it @@Giorgiio69

FINALLY, the only UA-camr who has a Magic 5 pro and the 6 pro to do a comparison!
Really looking forward to this battle @LL Techview :D
Great review my friend! Keep it up! Can't wait my Honor Magic 5 Pro update to MagicOS 8! 🔥🔥
Just a question: as a Honor 5 user, what was your experience with updates, fixing bugs, improving performance of the cameras etc. How much attention Honor, as a company pays to these issues, how important this is to them? Any feedback from existing Honor users would be appreciated.

Super review. We check the comparison of cameras with other smartphones
Thank you very much ...
I watched the entire video and I can say that I consider you my number one source in the world of mobile phones...
After seeing most of the phones in 2024, I can wait for another year without buying a new phone due to the lack of a clearly distinctive phone.. I was waiting for the Samsung Ultra 24, but unfortunately I did not like it after watching the reviews and summaries, so I will wait another year 😁
Can't wait for the Honor magic 5 pro vs Honor magic 6 pro camera comparison as a owner of the magic 5 pro 🤙🏾👑
Hello from the UK. Great review, liked it a lot, balanced and straight to the point no fluff, with lots of detail.
Some questions about the Honor if you have a moment:
1. Can you turn on the torch while taking photos or videos? Can the torch be used as a background light source while filming? (my Samsung S21 Ultra can't and I consider it a major issue!)
2. Does the camera support 16:9 format photos or only 3:4 like Huawei phones did?
3. Any issues. problems with notifications, delays etc?
4. How aggressive is this phone in closing up opened apps to save memory, can it hold a decent amount of apps in the RAM?
5. Based on the previous Honor Magic phones snd their update history: what are the chances to have these camera issues (bad zoom, portrait) addressed or fixed, or will the problems just persist forever? What do you think?
Thank you in advance. :-)
Honor magic 4 ultimate is still the best honor up to date. The most attractive phone from my point of view. But magic 5 and 6 pro are also great ones
Nice, after 13 ultra hopefully few years will pass to pick a new one 🎉
Looking forward to see it against magic 5 pro and is it worth it to upgrade.
very nice video, you are the only one that went in depth like that in the software (since it seems you are a loyal honor user lol)
i watched very, very, very, very much reviews of this phone, and you are the only one that did that (which made me know a little more of the features honor offer), thank you, i really liked it
another excellent review i wondered how the tele lens compared with the magic 4..older p50 mate40 magic 49 are very good..a used magic 6 is $740 not a good sign the magic5 was $900 used for months..this is an excellent place as it uses the magic4 /5 pro40/50..older cameras but very very useful..great even the best channel on UA-cam
camera comparison with the Magic 5 Pro is on the way
Good review, i go with the 5pro...cost 777€ today
Finde die Neuerungen in Magic OS8 wirklich gelungen. An einigen Stellen müssen sie noch arbeiten. Woran sie allerdings am meisten arbeiten müssen ist die Geschwindigkeit der Updates. Mein magic 5 Pro wartet immer noch auf OS 8…..
Finally!! I was looking forward to it. Can't wait for the camera review. Probably gonna hit the top in the chart?
I have to see. I have my doubts. First there will be a comparison with the predecessor and then Xiaomi 14 and Mate 60 Pro. At one point Vivo and Oppo but on first impression I can tell you currently nope not 1st spot. I am still waiting for the first update adding Magic Portal as this should also bring camera improvements.
@@lltechview yeah, I just had a chance to watch the video. I jumped the gun on commenting. I don't think any kind of update can fix the issues to a level that it can be #1. Really really disappointed. It would be an all-rounder if it had a camera that would be in top3.
What surprised me the most is that so many reviewers praised the camera so much until I watched your video lol
How much better is the camera/video from Huawei P60 Pro?
That's it, this is the flagship I need to get, if my carrier still has it in August. Since you answered in another video that it has Desktop Mode, now you said it has video out, this is the phone for me. It does say Aero-Plane mode among other things reviewers noticed, but I don't care, I can't afford Galaxy S24 and I don't think it's better because 1 anti glare screen and maybe better camera I don't care about.
Great work as always I love all your videos.
Quick question camera wise do you think the Honor magic 6 pro beats the Vivo X100 Pro?
I currently have the Honor magic 6 Pro but I'm thinking about returning it and getting the xiaomi 14 Ultra or the Vivo x100 Pro
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated
Keep up the good work
According to my tests for now there is no way its beating the X100 Pro. Vivo has better processing and hardware.
@@lltechview thanks for the reply you legend
Do you know if you can turn off the Dynamic Dimming feature? It's a shame you didn't mention that in the video and it's a deal breaker for me if it can't be turned off
Honestly did not notice it
Can i use my.vooc charger which is 65 watt ( old Oppo find x2 pro ) for this ?
You can use it but it won't charge with 65 watt
Is there possibility to record the calls like on magic pro 5? This function convinced me to buy the phone. And also let me know if editing picture allows you to erase objects?
No magic eraser at all, strange it doesn't have it in my opinion
No call recording for me. Maybe because I bought it from Germany where this is illegal
Yeah Magic Eraser is Huawei specific tech. Honor still has to deliver something similiar
Truth to be told, this phone feels like huawei mate 20 pro all over again just with stronger chips.
When will be full camera review ? I am also interested to comparison with VIVO X100 PRO :-)
Comparisons first.
Magic 5 Pro
Xiaomi 14
Mate 60 Pro
Vivo / Oppo
VivoX100Pro would thrash it down.
There's no point of such comparison
Can anyone please tell me if the black is the same texture as the green....in the vegan leather, or is it shiny? Just wondering which is better to hold? I keep visiting mobile shops but they are all in caged holders so hard to compare 🤔
Black is glass back and matt
@@lltechview thanks 🙏
Thx
Do a review on the Huawei Mate 60 pro plus
Only if someone donates enough to get this one.
Really good phone , but the screen notch remember me of a familiar phone .
This one is thinner though. And yeah Huawei and Honor had this pill first
I just got the Magic 6 Pro the chinese version . Its got the chargers and phone case. Dxomark Is right again . Best in the world i have test it myself. Its like a high end Huawei phone without the high price.
Its a very good phone for sure. But has some room for improvements especially when it comes to the cameras.
@@lltechview maybe future updates should fix it
@@johnnywong1018 I hope so too.
What's the difference between the Chinese version and the global version besides the charger and phone case ?!
Is there a Google apps ?
@@DeathLine87 Google Apps don't come preinstalled. Android Auto is not working and Google Assistant won't work via gesture afaik.
Nice, preordered the green one yesterday evening. Hope that the screen is better than the s23 ultra one.
Nothing at all wrong woth the s23 ultra screen you'll find it's actually better and sharper. More PPI on the s23 ultra than the honor. Nice looking phone though
@@liamfeatherstone924 i also preordered the black one just for battery endurance. ( i have s23u )
@@liamfeatherstone924 everything wrong with the s23u screen, it gives me headaches at night, eyes also tired after using it. During the day it's oke.
@@smitjeeYes thats well known! Low PWM frequency makes this pain. Honor solved it with very high PWM frequency in dark environments.
@@KDS-fd7vf can't wait to test this one out.
nice video
Nice video, please test wireless charging with Honor wireless Charger 100W
I did already. Its charging fast. Not as fast as the Magic 4 Ultimate but very fast still
@@lltechview Thank you for reply, is it charge 66w?
@@ahmadalkhodair7206 Yes
You rock dude. First congratulation for being daddy, then thanks for this video !! i am really on the edge of buying it (their is incredible offers in france with the tab, some discount and some bonus with carrier to take back old phone). Watching pics you took and video, i ask myself if you did not took the wrong phone... and old one. I have xiaomi MI10 ( 2020 released) and i don't really see any upgrades here. It's ashamed, because this phone is really really nice... The only positive point i guess with this Honor is shooting our babies (could you confirm with your next full review of it ? it should be much better than other phone and not have any blurry) . Have you ever get surprised and really " whaou " effect with a phone recently ?
Thanks.
Have to check if the falcon tech works on animals and babies. I think it is more optimized for sports.
As for a phone that wowed me. Find X7 Ultra for portraits is insanely good even beating the Vivo X100 Pro that wowed me as well.
Love your reviews, the x7 ultra wowed you with portraits, what about the rear cameras.
I have the magic 6 and you're right about the drawing portraits photos
Does honor magic 6 pro is global version the first global with Magic os 8.0?
Yes
@@lltechview so now Honor magic 6 pro has release the first global version with MagicOS 8, Now we just have to wait for the beta test on China version to end until May & it's time for Global version to get Updates! Can't wait for my Honor x9a 5G.
First review ive seen from you. Very impressed! I've subscribed. I did notice an update for the camera was pushed out today. I wonder if that has made much improvement?
I will hopefully get it soon as well and can test
What was the update saying
@20:11 Screen on Time 52 minutes , remaining charge is 96%.. thats amazing but still we need to consider the usage with sim card inserted.. can you provide more of SOT and battery percentages ?
As long as I have more data. Screen on time is a bit deceiving as it only shows it for the day. First impressions however as I took the SIM out of my Nubia Z60 Ultra the battery life on the Magic 6 Pro is roughly the same as on the Nubia. The Nubia provides the larger battery though. But yeah expect amazing 11+ hours of SoT
@@lltechview at my s23u i have max 6hr sot... 11 would be amazing...
Hi Sir! How about the Mate 60 Pro updates for camera? 😊
Just arrived. Still have to test it out.
Did you know that when you remove the members only video you can earn or add more views? Haha. Release your Magic 6 Pro and 5 Pro comparison please.
@@JagaEd381 Sorry. The video needs to have proper description and thumbnail before I release it. Another video will come out today though for all
Die Kamera kommt mit Standard-Einstellung auf Authentisch, sodass die Aufnahmen dunkel sind. Hier muss auf Dynamisch oder Natürlich eingestellt und die Bilder werden etwa heller dargestellt. Nachträglich können die Borken-Aufnahmen nicht mehr angepasst werden (wie bei Huawei). Ebenfalls ist sie Radier-Funktion nicht an Bord.
Bei mir war standardmäßig lebendig (vibrant) eingestellt. Damit sind auch die Fotos entstanden
Mit eine SIM-Karte kommt das Update mit alle Neuerungen. Ist 1,13 GB ungefähr.
@@madalindumitrescu9414 Sim Karte hab ich drinnen
Habe gerade festgestellt, dass die Blende nur unter Pro manuell eingestellt werden kann. Überall sonst wird automatisch eingestellt. Ahh, und hat nur 2 Stufen. Boken-Aufnahmen sind schlecht. Huawei ist hier weit vorne. Bei Mate 50 pro z.B. kann die Optische-Blende manuell eingestellt werden. Bokeneffekt TOP.
Almost 8GB update just came out yesrerday! Basically whole new rom
Sure ? Is the Magic Portal update ? For me only 1GB
Any improvement to the cameras? Would you mind giving us an update? Many thanks.
Is this global? Looking for an honor phone that works in America!
Yeah
2.6X zoom is a bummer in a flagship of 2024. Honor didn't keep up with the competition sadly.
Why? Basically the same as Oppo Find X6 Pro
I heard that the magic 6 Pro is are battery monster
First impressions its true. I put my vodafone SIM card from the Nubia Z60 Ultra to the Magic 6 Pro and the battery life is almost identical despite the Magic 6 Pro having the smaller battery. Impressive work by Honor.
does this phone come with a screen protector pre installed? does anyone know?
Yes
@@lltechview Thank u :)
When does my honor 90 update to mahic os 8.0 bc honor said it will update in march.. 😅
Magic*
I am not sure if Magic OS 8 will come out in march for global devices. I think they meant the chinese ones.
@@lltechviewso when though
..
had u heard? there seems to be a coming honor magic6 ultimate 😮
RSR Porsche Edition I think
@@lltechview nah check out weibo or gsmarena, 18th of march is announcement of Honor magic6 ultimate and the rsr version and the magicbook 16
when I'm on the phone, the speakers are very quiet, how to solve this problem?
You pressed the volume up button to the max during the call already?
yes,and when I'm in a quiet environment, for example at home, the volume is ok, when I'm outside, I hear almost nothing.
@@MegaKaro92 Thats weird. It should get loud enough. Maybe try resetting the phone app cache and data to see if that helps you. Also see if disabling AI privacy call might help for you. You can find it in settings of the phone app.
@@lltechview thank you for the advice. i think AI privacy call was the problem. 👏
I bought one in black, 3 days of using and still must to settle on a weight. Before I used Huawei Mate 50 Pro and its some grams less. I try the cameras on these models (yes Mate 50 Pro is 2+ y.o. model). camera function is very close on both models. Huawei has quicker automatic macro mode than Honor and also its automaticaly start/ know to start on a longer distancea than Honor. I try focusing of camera lens in interior for a 5 minutes and Honor began to warm up, Huawei was still cold. But only on display I can saw differences of picture quality and details. Honor has amazing details on day light (my interior test). I like this phone and I was choose it due, that is a same software enviroment as Huawei and I'm used to his gestures, thanks to which the phone is quickly controlled. For me now after 3 days only minus are weight and no adaptor in packaging. Honor support 88W charging power, but in my country the original adaptor from Honor is support "only" 66W, but for 5000mAh battery I think is small.
🎉
10:40 its a Graureiher.
You do have magic portal you find it under accessibility
No it wasn't there initially. An update was necessary and that arrived roughly two weeks after I had the device
@@lltechview ok i myself just orderd the magic 6 pro. I was thinking about the xiaomi 14 ultra or the 6pro but the honor has great battery life face id like the iphone and great camera specs
P40 pro the same curve design
Yeah a classic
Honor magic 6 pro vs S24 Ultra vs Huawei Mate 60 Pro when?
I don't have the S24 Ultra
@@lltechview Well, others?
@@RioJaneiro Mate 60 Pro vs Magic 6 Pro will be coming
It has a few minuses: 1) Really slow software support; 2) Zoom camera it's really trash, photos over 10x are really bad compared to s23 ultra which had usable photos even at 30x; 3) Video quality it's really bad due to EIS instead of OIS and this is a bad thing that it's persistent for more than 3 year
I think Honor is working on the slow software support. And with bumping up the support for this phone there is nothing you can go wrong about.
2. I still have to finally evaluate this one. But yeah long zooms seem to suffer with this one.
@@lltechview about 1 they said that they're working to fix this but instead, honor magic 5 pro still doesn't have final stable android 14, only beta... But yeah, overall, it's a good alternative to s23 ultra/s24 ultra if you don't care about zoom/eis :)
I see in other channel a test of the 100 zoom, and no good photo ,very blur and awful ,the photo was a mountain and u cant see anything .
I took some images from like 27,90,100 zoom and not something I would use but you can make out what I'm looking at.
Yeah right 100x is crazy. No phone does wonders here. Up to 10x I think its ok. 15x barable. Maybe you can get away with 20x on certain things. But it all depends if the object or subject you are photographing is moving or not. If not then you can get away with higher zoom levels otherwise not.
Standby clock doesnt work?
It works
@@lltechview it is. Set to on I have the honor case with stand it doesn't come on? Am I doing something wrong?
@@Doesmybumlookbig It should come up like an AOD if you have the device in landscape. It does not appear in portrait orientation.
@@lltechviewI put in landscape AOD is on just doesn't show maybe a faulty device
@@Doesmybumlookbig Maybe some software issue. Try resetting the phone.
xiaomi 13 pro or magic 6 pro?
Magic 6 Pro
@@lltechview thx
The camera quality in third party apps like Snapchat and Instagram is bad. That’s such a pity! 😔
It needs adjustments from these apps to the API provided by Honor or Honor has to API map what Samsung offers
@@lltechview it’s just bad that honor does not make any partnerships. I have to return the phone because of that problem
Hi friend, do you have a specific scene? Such as previewing, taking photos or video calls?
@@xinji-rc2kj The camera quality is poor in every app, unless you record directly via the camera. Snapchat is even worse than Instagram
Which phone you recommend for over all good?
1. Honor magic 6 pro
2. xiaomi 14 pro
3. oppo find x7 ultra
4. vivo x100 pro
5. huawei mate 60 pro
7. samsung s24 ultra
8. Iphone 15 pro Max
All of them fall in that category
@@lltechview which one you will pickup if that person will be more focus on reliable & longevity
@@khanbahadurshah6989 again all of them
You said you wouldn't get it😂
True. That was when the chinese version came out. As many many people wanted a review and someone donated enough money for me to buy the global version I did it.
@@lltechview that's nice
Congrats! @@lltechview
Everything is nice except the software. It's their only weakness. If they work harder on software they will take big share of the market!!
I think they are investing a lot in the software. I hope they can improve a bit more still.
Fix some bugs and improve the camera processing a bit more.
Оце , в середині в нього є такий ... ZENFONE 8 FLIP !...
No charger or a case on a high end Chinese phone this is unacceptable
So acceptable on non chinese phones? I think its not acceptable on any phone
@@lltechview i am not sure but i think it's related to some new rules by european commission. I don't know how, but the EU rules is now a single charger USB C for all devices. I think now brand use this as a tool not to provide any charger for devices sold on european territory " Under the Commission's proposal, a USB-C connector will become the standard port for all smartphones, tablets, cameras, headphones, portable speakers and handheld video game consoles. Chargers will also be sold separately from electronic devices."
I'm being honest this device other than by the hardware is nothing close to oppo find x7 ultra
Hallo Leszek, das Magic Portal kam heute mit einem Update! 🙂
Bei mir noch nicht Schon gecheckt auch mit SIM drinnen. Wahrscheinlich in ein paar Tagen auch hier.
Ich habe auch die Globale Version. Für 999€ konnte ich nicht widerstehen. Das Update hatte 1,3GB. Mit dabei das Sicherheitspatch 02/24. Bis jetzt bin ganz zufrieden. Ich finde aber, dass der Akku beim X100 Pro besser ist. Bei den Kameras wird es kompliziert. Der Zoom ist bei Vivo besser. Keine Frage. Bei der Hauptkamera ist es mal so, mal so. Und UWW ist gleich gut. Die Front-Kamera beim Honor ist aber um Klassen besser. Viel schärfer. Bin auf Deinen Vergleich gespannt.
Schönes Unboxing. Auch wenn ich ein wenig enttäuscht bin. Außer einem dürren Kabel war nix weiter dazu.
Aber bei den Lautsprechern, fand ich, haben sie was ordentliches verbaut. Es müssen ja nicht die lautesten sein, aber gut klingen.
The Chinese version comes with everything
Die Lautsprecher sind mit das Beste was ich bisher gehört habe. Auch das Display ist eines der Besten. Eigentlich ein No Brainer. Es gibt wenig zu meckern.
Крім того , якщо там , просто в Меджік 6 , без про .. , є ІР68 , справді ... То Він справді дублюється ... Глобальним HONOR MAGIC 6 !!!...
Ohhh ! Finally you spend money and time ..:(
From what I seen camera quality is bad specially on zoom like cartoon looks even from 10x that's bad
Maybe good display speaker storage ir scanner battery fast charging but... Camera and software updates is bad and not acceptable..!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
So disapppointed with the software
Why?
That the magic portal is not available in the global version yet. They should have it available at launch. Ill wait it out as per your advice, and see what software updates they will provide for global
@@jamescao4128 Ah this, I got the update now that improves the camera and brings the Magic Portal as well. So if you get your Magic 6 Pro the first update should give you that as well.
Camera comparing vivo, oppo or even samsung looks really average, definitely not a flagship quality. Color science is really wierd, alyways yellowish color cast.
Yeah first impression is high contrast and warm look. Not always bad but definitely not the top
Watch ASBYT review of this as well as Xeetech etc and their reviews of this camera is all great. The main and wide especially better than Vivo and Oppo in many scenarios.
@@SDav21 I highly doubt that
@@lltechview It's based off comparisons I've seen. In one the normal and wide were way better than the Find X7 Ultra. On the one where they compared it to the Vivo, it was trading blows with the honor being better in quite a lot of the photos. Perhaps watch those? The reviews on the Honor are very mixed though.
@@SDav21Watched already 15 different reviews, all show same problems, yellow color cast, oversharpening, wrong red colours, totally random quality in portrait mode, worse optics than competitors.
Had huge hopes on this phone, because it is the only chinese phone available in my country.
More of an Iphone clone, all this Chinese brands aren't unique
Gotta love Chinese Spy devices.
lol
How is it any different to the Korean and American spy devices then if that's what you believe? It's people like you that affect the consumer because everything that isn't American or a Samsung is a spy device. Yall are exhausting. At the end of the day we have less choices because of a bigoted America that bans companies like Huawei because they can't compete. It has nothing to do with security.
Chinese are not quite up to western government snoop standards. Ask Edward Snowdon.
Well unless you're a spy I wouldn't worry too much
