Leaks suggest Honor will launch two new devices in the Magic9 series this September, featuring high-end Snapdragon processors and advanced camera systems. The Pro or Pro Max model is expected to include a massive battery and high-wattage wireless charging.
Why it matters
The release highlights the competitive landscape of the Chinese smartphone market and the rapid advancement of mobile hardware specifications.
Honor has already confirmed that the Magic9 series is coming in September. You may have been wondering how many devices will be part of the lineup, and today Digital Chat Station has shared the purported answer on Weibo.
According to him, we're getting the Magic9 , powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, just like the Magic8 (blame the RAM and storage chip crisis, presumably). This device will have a 6.36-inch screen with a "1.5K" resolution and a "large battery" that isn't detailed any further.
Along with it there will be another device, which will either be called Magic9 Pro or Magic9 Pro Max (the leaks haven't been able to agree yet). This one has a 6.8-inch screen with a "1.5K" resolution and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro SoC at the helm.
