Honor Magic7 and Magic7 Pro join Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite party with 5,000 nit displays and 200 MP telephoto camera

Honor and Xiaomi have both released their first smartphones based on Qualcomm’s recently released Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. With its most recent flagships, Honor has essentially expanded upon the design language of the Magic6 Pro. However, Honor makes several distinctions between the more costly Magic7 Pro and the Magic7 as usual.

For instance, the Magic7 Pro has a slightly larger battery than the Magic7, with capacities of 5,850 mAh and 5,650 mAh, respectively. Both models support 100 W wired and 80 W wireless charging, though. Additionally, the Magic7 Pro is the only one of the two to sport a 200 MP periscope camera, which delivers 3x optical zoom across a 1/1.4-inch optical format with a 60 mm equivalent focal length.

Conversely, the Magic7 utilises a 50 MP telephoto camera, which Honor complements with 50 MP ultra-wide-angle, 50 MP front-facing and 50 MP primary cameras. Incidentally, while the Magic7 Pro shares these cameras, it has an f/1.4-f/2.0 aperture compared to the fixed f/1.9 aperture of the Magic7.

Both smartphones feature LTPO AMOLED displays that offer 1-120 Hz variable refresh rates and 1,600 nits of full brightness too, or 5,000 nits when viewing HDR content. With that being said, the Magic7 has a moderately smaller display than the Magic7 Pro, although both have 453 PPI pixel density. Furthermore, both displays should provide 4,320 Hz PWM frequencies to mitigate flickering at low brightness levels.

The Magic7 series starts at CNY 4,499 (~$632) for the Magic7 with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. By contrast, the Magic7 Pro retails for CNY 5,699 (~$800) with the same memory configuration. As the image below shows though, the pair can be configured up to 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage for CNY 5,499 (~$772) and CNY 6,699 (~$940), respectively. Details about an international release are unknown for now, though.
