2025 is becoming an exciting year for smartphone enthusiasts as the companies producing smartphones are rolling out their flagship devices. Its launch is Honor Magic 7 Pro, a handset seeking to push the successor of its previous model ahead of the curve, redefining the premium smartphone.
Battery and Charging: Efficiency Meets Speed
In 2024, the Honor Magic 6 Pro won praise for its excellent battery life, and the Honor Magic 7 Pro impressively continues the gang with a 5,270mAh battery. The capacity was slightly decreased compared to its predecessor, but the new model makes up for that with 100W fast charging (up from 80W) to get back in speed faster. Honor’s second-generation E2 chip improves power management and battery health monitoring for efficiency and longevity.
Display: Designed for Comfort
The Magic 7 Pro has a 6.8-inch AMOLED screen full of functions designed to lessen eye strain. Hardware-level low blue light technology, 4320hz PWM dimming, and the Natural Light Honor AI Eye Comfort Display mimic natural light to deliver a more comfortable viewing experience. The range of these innovations is especially attractive, considering that users use their devices for extensive hours at a time.
AI Advancements: Smarter and More Integrated
In the Magic 7 Pro, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset powers it, with AI at the center stage. One of the notable features of Magic Portal is that it lets users perform various tasks with just a single click. MagicOS 9.0 enhanced allows users to draw or circle certain items on their screen’s surface, and the system suggests the appropriate app and services, another feature akin to the pre-installed Circle to Search.
Real-time translation for up to 13 languages via the ‘AI Translation’ feature and a newly overhauled Notes app that can summarize lengthy texts on the device are supported. Honor collaborates with Google to remount the Google Gemini app for better AI functionality.
Camera: A New Approach to Photography
The Magic 7 Pro has a triple camera system: a 50MP main sensor with an adjustable f/1.4 aperture, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 200MP telephoto lens that can zoom 100x. Honor’s hybrid AI model, which hybridizes device and cloud processing, promises better image quality. This innovation’s real-world performance separates the Magic 7 Pro from the pack and could give it a winning edge in mobile photography.
Availability and Pricing
Priced £1,100 and €1,300, the Honor Magic 7 Pro will launch first in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Customers who pre-order will get a complimentary MagicPad 2. A US launch is unlikely, as the phone has not yet expanded into other European markets, though the phone is expected.
Final Words
The Honor Magic 7 Pro features great AI innovations, a passion for eye comfort, and the latest camera technology, adding to a strong premium smartphone contender. Facing the OnePlus 13 and Samsung Galaxy S25, but with a premium user-centric design and cutting-edge features, Honor is likely a force to be reckoned with in 2025.
