Life in the fast brain
Honor’s latest hero phone promises never to miss a moment thanks to its quick-thinking cameras… and the rest of the package is pretty zippy too 2

No offence, Honor, but last year’s Magic4 Pro was a shock to the system. Here was a one-time budget phone brand suddenly competing with the big boys in true flagship territory – and in several respects beating them, courtesy of an excellent set of cameras and incredibly quick charging of both the wired and wireless varieties. Its successor has a lot to live up to, then.
Things are looking good for the Magic5 Pro right off the bat, with the sort of top-tier internals we’d expect from any great high-end handset in 2023, along with the stand-out styling to match. It’s also packing an overhauled trio of snappers, with fast focusing and fast subject-tracking via its bespoke Falcon algorithm.
