Honor Magic is a smartphone that is only available in one colour – black. It is also the first time that Honor is putting the fingerprint sensor on its front and surrounded by the 8 curved edge.
Despite surrounded by black, the mid chassis comes with rose gold painted with UV technology. The black chassis is so dark that it hides all visible modules except the camera lens and LED flash.
The 12MP dual rear camera isn’t the same or comparable with the Mate 9 or P9 but it sure does a great job for black/white and colour photography. There is also a dual 8MP front camera as one are IR-enabled that bring more colours when taking selfie at night.
Honor Magic has an exclusive feature known as Magic Live. This feature assist user in daily queries by learning through user via artificial intelligence. With this feature enabled, Honor Magic can predicts what you would like to send next and appears in your prediction text.
The Honor Magic also has a feature that detects when you begin “staring” at the smartphone. This feature is somehow similar to Samsung smartwake as the display will eventually lights up without the need to press any of the button.
The IR camera on the front is able to recognize owner facial structure and thus prohibits unauthorized user from opening certain apps despite the phone has been unlocked.
And here comes the legendary quickcharging feature. The Honor Magic comes with a highly efficient quickcharging technology that recharges 91% of the battery in just 30 minutes! This could beat latest Qualcomm Quickcharge and other current QC technology available at the market today.
As with the quickcharge technology, the Honor Magic only comes with 2900mAh battery.
