HONOR partnered with the Night Safari at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve to see the night differently through the lens of the HONOR Magic8 Pro. From elusive sugar gliders darting through the dark to the wise, watchful collared owlet, the Magic8 Pro’s 200MP ultra-night telephoto camera brought every moment to life with stunning clarity.

Even the soft fur of a wandering binturong and the glimmering scales of the carpet python are captured in remarkable detail, made possible by the phone’s 10x Ultra Night Zoom and master-grade imaging capabilities.

Master-grade Imaging Flagship Photography: Delivering Next-Level Night Telephoto performance with AiMAGE

HONOR elevates smartphone photography to new heights with the latest advancements in its AiMAGE Camera System, delivering unprecedented clarity, stability, and creative control powered by next-generation AI.

The HONOR Magic8 Pro introduces the industry’s most advanced AI telephoto system to date, featuring a 200MP Ultra Night Telephoto Camera[2] with a large 1/1.4-inch sensor, wide f/2.6 aperture, OIS, and 3.7x optical zoom. This setup drastically improves light intake, delivering clearer details even at long distances. The 50MP Ultra Night Main Camera (f/1.6, OIS) and 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera (122°, 2.5 cm HD macro) further expand creative possibilities, offering vibrant tone accuracy, natural portrait rendering, and immersive landscapes.

Powered by HONOR’s AI Adaptive Stabilization Model, users are seven times[3] more likely to produce great zoomed images even without a tripod or gimbal. Thanks to the industry-leading AI Adaptive Stabilization Model, the HONOR Magic8 Pro achieves the industry’s most stable CIPA 5.5-level[4]. It boasts a 4x improvement in shake detection accuracy and a 1x improvement in dynamic response.

The HONOR Magic8 Pro introduces Magic Color, an AI colour engine that extracts 16.77 million colours and uses device–cloud processing to track and adjust tones with high accuracy. It delivers fast, precise colour rendering for both overall scenes and fine details, ensuring high-quality output and smooth real-time previews.

Magic Color lets users recreate cinematic looks, apply professional tones, or generate personalised templates from any reference image for use in-camera or through Magic Portal. It streamlines colour grading, making pro-level results easy.

Beyond capture, the AI Photos Agent[5] enables one-tap or voice-based operations, including AI Eraser, AI Outpainting, AI Color, and AI Cutout. This allows for precise background removal, portrait refinement, artistic restyling, and complex image manipulation.

The new AI Button, separate from the power key, instantly launches the camera with a double press, even from the lock screen. Users can customise their gestures to access HONOR AI, AI Settings Agent, AI Photos Agent[6], and other features as desired.

Performance, Endurance & Display: Power Meets Comfort

Powered by the world’s fastest mobile system-on-a-chip, the Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile Platform[7] features significant improvements in CPU, GPU, and AI computing power compared to the previous generation, with benchmark scores demonstrating industry-leading performance. HONOR Magic8 Pro introduced the industry’s first GPU-NPU Heterogeneous AI super-resolution and frame-generation technology, designed to transform low-resolution, low-frame-rate gameplay into high-resolution, high-frame-rate experiences. This enables demanding open-world titles to achieve 120fps at 1080p from an original 60fps at 850p, delivering both super-resolution and ultra-high frame rates.

Its 7100mAh[8] silicon-carbon battery ensures all-day endurance, while 100W Wired and 80W Wireless HONOR SuperCharge provide ultra-fast, flexible charging. The 6.71-inch LTPO OLED display supports an adaptive refresh rate of 1-120 Hz adaptive refresh rate[9] and achieves HDR peak brightness up to 6,000 nits[10] (global peak 1,800 nits). Integrated the Chip-Level AI Defocus Display, Dynamic Dimming, Circular Polarized Display 2.0, and Circadian Night Display work together to emulate natural viewing conditions, supported by 4320 Hz PWM Dimming[11] for low-flicker eye comfort.

Additionally, the HONOR Magic8 Pro is powered by the upgraded HONOR C1+ RF Enhanced Chip, delivering stronger, more stable network performance across everyday usage. With improvement in Wi-Fi performance, users can enjoy faster and more reliable connectivity, be it streaming, gaming, or working on the go. The device also features HONOR’s advanced Signal Antenna Structure, which boosts signal transmission by up to 90% and signal reception by up to 108%. Together, these enhancements ensure consistently robust coverage, even in congested or low-signal environments.

MagicOS 10[12]: Translucent Design and Seamless Ecosystem Connectivity

MagicOS 10 introduces a light, translucent visual style that feels airy and readable across Lock Screen, Home Screen, Control Center, Notification Center, Contacts, Notes, and other apps. Beyond visuals, breathing interactions link subtle light flow effects, sound, and haptics, buttons in the Lock Screen keypad, Dialer, and Control Center glow in response to touch for a more natural, tactile feel.

Elevating the Intelligence Experience with Advanced AI Capabilities 

The HONOR Magic8 Pro delivers a balanced mix of creativity, reasoning, and contextual task handling AI experiences.

Running locally on MagicOS 10, HONOR AI focuses on perception, context understanding, and execution, making every interaction more intuitive and efficient. It intelligently understands on-screen content, interprets natural commands, and quickly adjusts system settings to help users efficiently complete tasks. With a long press of the dedicated AI Button, users can directly access AI Screen Suggestions. These intelligently adapt to the current scenario, activating features like AI Photos Agent, Summary, and AI Deepfake Detection. Furthermore, the AI Settings Agent processes user commands, whether typed or spoken, to understand semantic intent and provide responses in both text and voice. The Magic Sidebar offers one-swipe and hold access to HONOR AI, Magic Portal, and other features without requiring users to leave their current app. For real-time communication protection, AI Deepfake Detection and AI Voice Cloning Detection provide immediate safeguards against face-swap and voice-clone fraud during calls and video chats, helping to ensure authenticity and safety in every conversation.

The HONOR Magic8 Pro comes pre-installed with Google Gemini, empowering users to interact seamlessly via text, voice, or image for comprehensive assistance on the go. This marks a significant step towards building a truly intelligent AI assistant – one that is conversational, intuitive, and genuinely helpful. Users can access information and answers with fewer steps, leveraging features like Overlay and Screen Context. Furthermore, they can streamline tasks and projects with advanced functionalities such as Nano Banana in Gemini, Veo 3, and Connected Apps. Gemini Live further enhances interaction through real-time visual understanding and live translation, enabling it to recognize landmarks, read signs, and instantly translate menus or documents, effectively bridging physical and digital information.

Giving users a seamless, intuitive experience across devices, the laptop pairs effortlessly with the Magic8 Pro phone through AI Cross-OS WorkStation, enabling smooth file transfers, shared workflows, and unified multi-device productivity.
