Magic 6 Pro - Long term experience report

[@D-Theo]

I use it and I love it. I think at this price it's one of the best phone you can buy.

[@everstar8056]

It is better than iphone 16 pro max.

[@Uncle_Tham]

Sold my s24u and got a hm6p 6 days ago...liking it a lot , really do remind me of the good old Huawei days with gms...it's honor now

[@StefanRoll]

Man I have an S24 for 30 days now.. I really think about returning the Samsung and getting this Honor. Is it a big difference in the photo area between the two? Is Honor actually better? Before the Samsung I had and I still have my Mate 20 Pro, faithful old friend for almost 6 years now. Can you compare them for me what is better what is worse?

[@MRsiniSSDT]

Having both a samsung and an honor I feel like Honor hardware is better (beside build quality that is better on samsung) but for the UI samsung just feels better and better finished with more options

[@zhining133]

good news is that Huawei's video&camera department boss has come to HONOR, and Magic7 images will take a leap forward

[@mikoyeshiro963]

I got it. One of the best.

[@GraemeAdamson]

Great review! I got mine a few weeks ago, to replace my Huawei Mate 50 Pro. Having Google services again is nice, it feels faster, and the battery life is much better. The zoom, as you said, is not great (and the Mate 50 Pro was worse than the Mate 40 Pro); I believe an update coming up may help. Macro mode is really good. The phone migration from the Huawei was not great at all, I had to do lots of stuff manually and set many apps up again.

[@lltechview]

@@GraemeAdamson Oh. Too bad it worked for me from Mate 40 Pro to Magic 3 Pro+ and after that to Magic 4 Ultimate just fine.

[@gethealthy7413]

I've been using it since May, it feels amazing, some small annoyances, the image quality isn't a 10/10. The PWM is great I never got that eye strain or headaches I got from the S24 Ultra or the Pixel 8 Pro

Thank you very much 🙏🏽 sir

[@juniorknowles-x2c]

by the way it was apple who clone the capsule from honor and not vice versa honor was the first to use the capsule around camera

[@lltechview]

@@juniorknowles-x2c Of course I know. But the way it is implemented now in Honor is copied from Apple.

[@Red_Ford]

Honor Magic 7 coming soon!

[@lltechview]

@@Red_Ford Saw it already. I am in China right now

[@Red_Ford]

@@lltechview All I can say is.that the Honor Magic 6 Pro looks better than 7 😉

[@Altair.O.B]

Oh god… I was just about to buy this one!!! Now I don’t know if to wait… I’m in Spain btw

[@1978hv]

​@@lltechviewyou already saw it? Is it quad camera on the pro version? If so, what is the arrangement?

[@lltechview]

@@1978hv Only saw it from front and not allowed to touch it

Serious long-term presentation indeed! Could you help me, what kind/model of case is that you are using on?

When can we expect the long-term review of the Pura?

[@lltechview]

@@n10tkey1 Testing it in China right now

[@subash4885]

I think Hawaii pura 70 is best for camera but performance like gaming and multiple tasking is not best...

[@stepankhachatryan1544]

Please get magic os 9 beta and make a video. I can't wait to see it's new design and functionality

[@lltechview]

@@stepankhachatryan1544 I try to so far it only offers it for the Magic V3

[@TDELAC66]

If we are honest, all mobile phone manufacturers are more or less the same today, they sell us fog and always semi-finished products that they will improve with upgrades, and we will remain the same and continue to buy 😁

[@speedster1264]

I come from an S23u and I use an iPhone 15 pro max at the same time as my honor magic 6 pro, and I find the honor better, it's really a perfect balance between android and Apple In the photo part I find the Honor better, especially compared to the Samsung s23u which was very bad! It's very close to the iPhone, but the Honor remains better in photos than my iPhone. In short for 800eur it's a surprise for me and I discovered a phone which meets all the most important criteria which are the best compared to the competition.

[@alriyada2008]

Thanks 🙏

[@mbktalk8395]

Watching on my beloving Honor Magic 6 RSR porsche design..

[@emmanuel6782]

My only problem with Honor is they are slow with updates and the lack of customisation. Im enjoying my MagicPad 2 though. Wish there was more to offer in the software department

[@abis2235]

They got a lot better with them though it seems, pretty consistent monthly updates on the flagships, magic 5 and 6, hopefully early a15, as they already roll out beta globally

[@jeremyhelias5450]

what camera do you use to record this video?

[@lltechview]

@@jeremyhelias5450 I think I stated it already the Pura 70 Ultra.

[@MaxPenguine]

Think that security of oppo is a bit low considering only one with VIP mode (OFF gps, internet or camera NO matter what). :)

[@rosarioscivoli6873]

Do you have the latest firmware version (8.0.0.206)? In this case have you noticed some improvements on photos? Maybe a little better on zoom and HDR?

[@lltechview]

@@rosarioscivoli6873 Not yet. I am still waiting for this one. I have the previous firmware

[@pob1971]

​@@lltechview... Click on try out version. For some reason I only got the latest firmware by doing that which isn't the usual way I've had updates...

[@gustavolima9828]

I used but i changed for 100 ultra... The honor 6 pro camera is kind disapponted me

[@ben_linux6474]

Same, coming from x100 pro the HM6 pro camera are really disappointing

[@abis2235]

​@@ben_linux6474That seems to be a really weird "upgrade" path

[@wackyxx3388]

i got this phone 2 weeks ago and i can tell u from someone coming from an iphone 14 pro max. everything so far is top notch my only worry was the front camera but it delivers. i use gcam after alot of back and forth between native camera. gcam is just better and more consistant. other stuff i like is the 3d face unlock is just like apple id. and there r countless things copied directly from apple which makes it seem like the iphone of andriods

[@everstar8056]

Agree fully

[@mariogrifus8020]

what about your xiaomi fold 4?

[@lltechview]

@@mariogrifus8020 Will maybe use it as daily for long term experience report next year.

[@shorkyy]

I had used Magic 6 Pro for like a week and I hate MagicOS so much that I go back to Vivo X100 Pro 😂 sorry but MagicOS is my worse UI

[@bgodard1]

After trying the Oppo Find X7 Ultra (my biggest disappointment of 2024), the Vivo 100 Pro and Ultra (Colors are so far from reality) and the Xiaomi 14 Ultra (not too bad, but I didn’t like the interface), I stuck with the Honor Magic 6 Pro. This Honor has one of the best battery life, excellent camera, stunning screen and 3D scan for unlocking. Surely one of the top 3 smartphones for 2024 👍

[@SibTiger33]

[@Uncle_Tham]

More honor magic 6 pro videos pls

[@muhammadsyafiq7760]

The one thing that turn me down from buying this phone is the video quality are very jittery

[@lltechview]

@@muhammadsyafiq7760 Is it. For the main cam only if it gets very dark outside

[@khalil9809]

Huawei is behind honor

[@lltechview]

@@khalil9809 Its very close. I am not sure yet

[@antonioventura8938]

I have the M6P but i have to say, i am a bit disapointed with it! I bought it when it was launched, believing that the cameras would be improved since the hardware was there, but no, Honor hasn't really put their money where their mouth is, we can see DXOMark but... not at the very highest level. The rest of the phone is Ok ish but battery life is getting worst on every update i got! Waiting for the new releases to exchange... and Honor won't be on the list!

[@martlodrld5934]

What would you recommend, the Honor Magic 6 Pro or the Pixel 9 Pro XL? Which do you think has a better camera?

[@lltechview]

@@martlodrld5934 I did not try the Pixel

[@martlodrld5934]

@@lltechview I'll wait for you to have the comparison so you can give me your opinion. For now I'll stick with my Oneplus Open

[@zhining133]

@@martlodrld5934 pixel chip energy efficiency is too rubbish, the screen is also very bad eyes

[@DR-kz8tw]

The biggest drawback for me is the poorly distributed weight, which is all in the camera and the phone in my hand feels 20 grams heavier than the s24 ultra

[@ben_linux6474]

I have the 6 pro since 1 month. Coming from a Vivo x100 pro, because I wanted better screen, better speakers. And I got this. This really is a premium phone. And as someone very pwm-sensitive I love it. BUT. I wasn't prepared for such a downgrade in the camera department. The 6 pro is unreliable, and even when it hits, the results are a far cry from the X100 pro. I would even say, my Oneplus12 camera was better. The s24 ultra too, while it has its problems too. As the camera is really something I value, I will sell it as soon as the vivo x200 pro (or even the OP13) will be available. DXO clearly lied on this one.

[@abis2235]

The OnePlus 12 for me compares consistently worse than Magic 6 pro in camera, id say it's a tier below x100 pro but a half tier above OnePlus 12

[@ylylenjoyer5903]
