The verdict, up front

Honor's first post-Huawei flagship Pro.

Magic3 Pro was Honor's declaration that it could build a flagship without Huawei behind it — IP68, 50 W wireless, a dedicated monochrome sensor, a 3.5× periscope. The Magic UI 5 ads and waning support are the modern caveats; as the line's independence statement, it earned its place.
