Honor Magic 6 Pro Hands-On: 180MP Periscope Zoom with Large Sensor!
Ғылым және технология
The Honor Magic 6 Pro has a 180-megapixel Periscope zoom lens with a 1/1.5-inch image sensor. These numbers are off the charts for a zoom lens. How does it perform? I gave it a quick test against the S24 Ultra and Vivo X100 Pro.

So happy you're the first guy to Review ( 1st Impressions ) with the Honor magic 6 Pro ... Really keen to see how it does in comparison to the competition and against the Magic 5 Pro ( Truly think Honor is such a underrated company and I hope we get the Magic 8 OS and the 6 Pro globally )

A comparison with Vivo updated, would be definitely the way to go! Vivo X100 Pro really intrigues me. Do you know how many years of Android major releases Vivo gives to customers?

to be fair, the magic 5 pro also had pretty nice depth of field on the tele, but this guy's review of the hm5p was really half-assed.

@@KZread-Censorship-Police With phones having larger sensors with periscope style lens and wider aperture, it produces nice results. I absolutely loved using 4X on Pixel 6 Pro when it came out, it was my most used lens for portraits without any need of portrait mode. And now phones doing periscopes with even wider aperture than f/ 3.0 is super nice. Magic6 Pro must have the most intense natural blur yet with its persicope it being 1/1.4" sensor and with wide f/2.6 aperture. Can't wait to see more "continuous optical zoom" style persicope implementation like Sony does.
That camera bump of this phone looks crazy.. Your presentation is always great
Been following your channel for sometime.No Bullshit, straight to the point with details/samples about the device,no unnecessary yapping,quick videos after release,..keep it up 👍👍 Same with lim reviews and few other channels
I've been looking forward to this video for a long time
Ben! I CAN NEVER GET BORED WITH YOUR VIDEOS you are always all the way amazing
Waiting for your full review on this one. Thank you for yet another amazing video with your honest opinion without any bias and bs🙏🏽👍🏽
Thank you for traveling so much that we can see very early the newest phones (and not only Apple, Google and Samsung). 🙏🏼🥰
I just can't wait for this. I have the M 5 pro and I absolutely adore it. In terms of software, as an ex Huawei user, this is the best thing ever. Thank you Honor.

It's really like old good Huawei? My last Huawei was mate 20 pro and after that I got iPhone 11 and pixel 6a. Looking to upgrade this year to a flagship and wondering if it's better to get Honor Magic 6 pro, Vivo x100 pro or wait for Pixel 9 (really love clean android).

@@michamaecki5678it is. Sorry for the late response. Most of the features are there including gimmicky stuff like mirror or mirror compass. You do get the good stuff. Great screen, 3D face unlock, the SEARCH SCOPE (best feature on a smartphone), desktop mode, etc...I have the Pixel 7 pro as well and I love the pics and some picture related software as well as the design, but HM 5 pro is a different beast. Better everything in my biased view 😂. I have to say, I don't like the vanilla android. Have an older Pixel 4A 5g as well...meh. Tried different stuff after Huawei's ban. As soon as HM 6 pro gets here in Europe, I'll grab it even if the 5 looks like it could take on the world for another 5 years. For me, after seeing a few devices, the HM 5 pro is the best smartphone of 2023. Battery, screen, packed with features, fast shutter (faster than Iphone's), also quick transitions in the camera, that 3D face unlock with a small cutout that doesn't feel intrusive. I'm addicted. Biased reviewers who can't see through samsung and apple are a desease. I wish people would give this a try for two weeks and talk later.
I'm really looking forward to a further detailed review. I really like that they are using a 180 MP sensor for telephoto, so you get really good zoom photos over different zoom ranges. Also that they are using 28mm standard focal range, which feels more natural and less unnecessarily wide. You are also probably the first trustworthy reviewer, making video about this device.
Another great review from Ben. Thank you so much, Ben.
With this early impression, I am impressed. For the price, this is what I was waiting for!!!
As usual, one of the best reviewers with his best reviews! Looking forward to your other comparisons...keep it up man!
Can't wait to see the full review!
I was patiently waiting for your hands on video of this device
Professional and informative, as always Ben!
Excellent and detailed review as always thanks a lot!!! No need to apologize mate!
can't wait to compare this to X100 Ultra upcoming this year.
Thanks Ben! Can't wait for full review. I love my Magic 5 pro. So good, everyone thinks I'm a pro photographer and ask me to take their pics not their iphones

Love what Honor are doing these days excellent value for money. Much love Ben ❤
Looking forward to your full review of this phone Ben!!
28mm main and 70mm portrait seems like ideal setup, iphone and samsung are too wide focal for main camera and too tight for telephoto, making it more difficult to use for family pics, this one seems like a win already, win on paper, can't wait for your review!
Cant wait for the full Review, great phone so far
Amazing content and hand on review as always Ben's bro
One of the best camera reviews I've seen for the Honor Magic 6 pro. You highlights his strengths and his weaknesses. I notice at night the stabilization gets all jittery but the camera itself actually picks up lot of details, which was my main worry on other videos. Image remains very good but it's more about that jitter on the OIS!
Can't wait to see the full review.
one of the best phone reviewers out there!
3:49 This is a valid point you can save as many articles in the favorite space to read later. 3:49 I love this idea it's convenient and intuitive. 3:14 I love the way you swipe across the upper right corner of the screen to pull out the favourite menu.
Thanks for early expressions. You are very early and accurate in comparison with others - that is great. Greetings from Germany.
Big fan bro.... Never miss your single video ❤❤❤
Thank you Ben. It found me at the right time.
Dankjewel voor de review,ik wacht nu op je volledig recensie van de honor magic 6 pro,en dan maak ik een keuze de honor magic 6 pro of de One Plus 12. Bedankt 👍🏻
Really good video earned a follow
Thanks for the great reviews.
I got the Magic 5 Pro last year and Im lovin it. Battery life just excellent and the camera is exceptional. Got it for 740 usd 12 + 512. The only thing feels weird to me is the camera cutout position at the corner, now at the center is so much better.

Hi I’m watching your vidéo from France 🇫🇷 😊 I like you style and tests, Even if it’s a Little difficult to understand everything you explain 😅 You are doing a Great job 👍🏻
I knew you'll be the first one to get it. Nice work I switched to Magic 5 pro after a looong streak of S ultras and I'm loving it. The only thing i'm missing is ability to change the background blur of the photos already taken. Makes me not wanna shoot portraits at all. Please tell me thats added!? ...and i did have to restart the phone a few times which never happened with ultras (3x in 6 months, so its not that bad). ...but overall the speed is great, cameras are amazing, the battery life is the best one out there for sure!
No apology necessary! I honestly enjoyed how concise you were! In-depth reviews are great but this brass tacks overview piques my interest as most phones have similar specs, so focusing on what's different as well as the main points people are interested in is fantastic!
Looking forward to your full review

Arguably the best Camera design so far . Honor❤
👍👍👍👍👍Great initial review.

Thanks for your efforts.👍👍👍
I really appreciated this content and I am looking forward to see the camera comparison among this flagship and the oppo x7 pro , vivo x100 pro, S24 ultra, iphone 15 pro Max and mate 60pro. Regards from Brazil.
Beautiful design 🎉
Waiting for the full review and comparison against other monsters as s24 ultra, vivo x100 pro or iphone! Thank u ben

Yes finally, Honor is the future 💯

Thanks a lot for this hands-on! I am holding my breath on the preorder deals on S24 Ultra because of this phone! X100 Pro is hard to get and F7 Ultra is interesting as well but not global!
WOW THAT SUCH AN AMAZING PHONE TO BE HONEST
This is dream camera hw for me. If only some brand will integrate this to smaller phone. Ben, another great video, but you shouldn't try to keep up with all new devices, beware of burn out. Take care!
Thanks for your first impression. I've been waiting for the global release of the X100 in Europe for 2 months now. And Samsung's S24 are available immediately after the launch and make many Chinese global releases obsolete.
Cannot wait for the full proper review... I had my X100pro stolen just last week in Barcelona and just bought a new one. Maybe I will change it to the Pro Plus later in the year if the rumors are true. If not it will be my daily driver for the next 3 years.
Great video the only Honor i have owned was Honor 8 love that phone maybe i should buy this if it comes to Denmark.
S24 ultra owner here. Want to see more of the honor, had magic 5 pro and this 6 pro seems promising!
Good screen and best camera 📸

Refreshing clean back design, Secure Face unlock, Stereo speakers, water resistance, good cameras, large 5600mah battery with 80w fast charging. If I was looking for a new smartphone. This would be my pick.
Can't wait to mine when it's released in Europe!! Will use it to upgrade my OnePlus 10 pro
I m using Honor magic 5 pro and it's a beast of a phone. Very nice phone.
Really loved the video Ben, definitely getting Magic6Pro, love my 5pro. 1 thing, are the side rails on the green colour gold or silver??? It often looks different. Thanks alot.
Good Job Bro 🔥👑👍🏻
Thank you! Keep on. Waiting Vivo vs Honor
Great preview, you got a sub! Does it have the same problem Honor Magic 5 pro has with Instagram where the camera goes dark if you wanna use it for Stories or Reels in the app. Looking forward for the full review!
All I can say is WTF😂😂😂 I love it and I cannot wait for your review Ben
Looking forward to the comparison with Vivo x100 pro!
very good video, I don't regret buying, very good phone, I have a Chinese version and the play store works and the cameras are phenomenal,HONOR MAGIC 6PRO
Just wow, how much Honor have grown over these years.
My father in germany just said he cant believe that oppo and vivo are real phones. If more people would know about those brands and you could buy them everywhere all phones would be much better by now. The vivo x100 pro has been the first phone in a while that impressed me.
Damn, the phone looks awesome :) Love how competitive the Chinese phones are becoming now :) I use Samsung, but I am considering to switch to OnePlus or so after the S26 Ultra (currently own the S23 Ultra)...
Thanks dude. Flash review on the spot as always. Honor 6 Pro and Xiaomi 14 ultra I am waiting for to decide between those two and oppo x7 ultra. Looking for the best camera. Of course the phone need to be working in Europe, for the moment Oppo covers almost all frequencies despite it is not Global. Following ❤
I wish the 3d Face unlock / selfie cam was in the left corner like last years model. I love the design of the phone. Watching from my Honor Magic 5 Ultimate that I promised to keep for all of 2024.
Bravo honor tu le meilleur ❤
5:50 - the Honor is making the text on the bottle unreadable. Looking forward to see a more in-depth comparison

wow..the photos from the zoom camera looks amazing.
nice review if ever you do continue on comparing this phone or other camera in the future can you do a photo/video test shots in lowlight conditions like concerts grounds on main and zoom lens. cause will probably use this zoom on a concert setup somehow at some point. thank you again for the hands on exp you got my sub!
It was almost an instant buy for me until I saw the video quality, hopefully it gets sorted, I will stay tuned.

Looking forward for the deep camera comparisons with the other camera beast... S24U, Oppo FX7U and Vivo X100 Pro. On the early photo sample we can actually see that Honor pumps up the saturation and exposure at least one grade higher than the most other flagship phone out there, which means that the color science and exposure tuning is a bit "old school". But the camera hardware wise, no complain at all.
Thank you so much
I'm particularly impressed by this phone's telephoto camera, and surprised that it seems to beat the Samsung Galaxy S24 ultra in nighttime zoom photos.Also intersted in the side by side camera comparison against other flagship smartphones like the S24 ultra,Vivo X100 Pro,Oppo Find X7 Ultra,etc . That would be interesting.
