HONOR Magic6 Pro at a Glance

HONOR Magic6 Pro is a HONOR phone that reached the market on 2024-02-25. It runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 12GB of RAM, and storage comes in 3 sizes (256GB, 512GB, 1TB). Our estimated street price sits between $989 and $1209, which puts it in the upper-premium bracket.

Display

The screen is listed as 6.8" LTPO OLED, 120Hz, 2800x1280. At 6.8 inches it is a large panel that favours video, reading and split-screen work over one-handed use. A 120Hz refresh rate makes scrolling, animations and gaming look clearly smoother than on a standard 60Hz screen.

Performance and Storage

Performance comes from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. 12GB of RAM leaves generous headroom for heavy multitasking and large games. Because there are several storage options (256GB, 512GB, 1TB), it is worth deciding how much you really need: photos, 4K video and downloaded games fill space quickly, and this phone's storage cannot be assumed to be expandable unless the spec says so.

Cameras

On the back, the camera setup is 50MP main + 50MP ultrawide + 180MP periscope telephoto (2.5x-100x zoom), a 3-lens arrangement. Having more than two lenses usually means dedicated zoom or ultrawide options, so check which focal lengths you will actually use. The front camera is 50MP + 3D depth sensor, which is the one that matters for selfies and video calls.

Battery and Charging

Battery life is described as 5600mAh silicon-carbon cell. A 5600mAh cell is on the larger side for a modern phone. Charging is 80W wired, 66W wireless; a 80W wired rate is fast enough for a large top-up in a short break.

Software and Build

It ships with Android 14, MagicOS 8.0. The build is Aluminum frame, Gorilla Glass Armor, IP68. The IP68 rating describes dust and water resistance: the first digit covers dust, the second covers water, and neither guarantees protection from every kind of liquid or damage over time.

Who It Suits

At this price you are paying for the best hardware the brand offers, so judge it on camera quality, long-term software updates and resale value rather than on specs alone. Read the full HONOR Magic6 Pro verdict for how it behaves in real use.
