Honor Magic 8 Pro review: A 7,200 mAh silicon-carbon flagship with a 200 MP periscope.
The endurance flagship to beat.
Magic 8 Pro answers the question nobody else would: what if a flagship simply didn't run out? The silicon-carbon 7,200 mAh cell delivers genuine two-day use with the Elite Gen 5 at full tilt, and the 200 MP periscope is the most usable long-zoom this side of an Ultra. MagicOS remains the asterisk for Western buyers.
