Reviews for the Honor Magic4 Pro
The Honor Magic4 Pro is a high-end smartphone with a wide variety of features and the first model from the former Huawei subsidiary since the acquisition. Thanks to the lack of trade restrictions, it offers a great feature set with a focus on the camera setup.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro is an overall very good device from an audio perspective. As a playback device, it does equally well for music, movies and gaming, making it a great all-rounder for smartphone users who rely on the built-in speakers. The device offers a pleasant midrange and good attack rendition, with sharp transients. It also offers a wide stereo soundscape where individual voices and instruments are easy to locate. On the downside, the tonal balance lacks some low-end and high-end extension, making it a little thin, and the minimum volume step is too quiet, which means it’s not ideal for listing to softer sound, such as classical music. The Magic4 Pro does well for Playback but is even better as a recording device, offering good performance across all our test attributes. It’s a very good option for recording in all sorts of situations, including concerts, meetings, and voice memos. It also sounds great when recording sound with main camera or selfie videos. Our testers found the device to be particularly good at dealing with high sound pressure levels, where it still offers a nice tonal balance and envelope as well as great intelligibility. Audio zoom works very well, too, allowing you to focus on one particular source of sound and drown out all the rest.

The HONOR Magic4 Pro is a great way for the company to break the ice as they seek to mount a comeback to the Philippines. It’s a great offering that delivers on performance with its processing package and cameras. However, there are a few kinks that need to be ironed out to make the experience even better. All in all, the Magic4 Pro is a fantastic reintroduction of the brand to the Philippine market and it does make us look forward to what they have in store for us in the future.

There's a lot to like about the Honor Magic4 Pro - it looks stunning, the fast-charging is amazing (every modern flagship should charge from 0 to 100 in 30 minutes, if you ask me), and the camera system is pretty versatile. The latest Qualcomm chipset makes this phone fly, and have I mentioned the screen? It's amazing - bright, easy on the eyes, crisp - one of the best in the business. There are, however, a few caveats that come with this far eastern beauty. For starters - the price is very... premium. The Honor Magic4 Pro costs 949 pounds in the UK (US price to be confirmed), and that's a lot of money to blow on a phone with the Honor moniker. No disrespect toward the brand but when your main competitors are Samsung and Apple, and their models come in cheaper, you're in for a tough ride.

The Honor Magic4 Pro is an excellent phone; its pricing, however, puts it in direct competition with flagship phones widely available with financing from US carriers. That, along with the fact that the phone is still hard to find in the US, makes it less likely this phone will take the US by storm. Even so, it is good to see Honor back on the stage!

On paper, the Honor Magic4 Pro is a contender that could go head-to-head with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, but it can’t quite live up to those expectations in the real world. Honor still has its work cut out for itself if it wants to truly compete in the premium flagship segment in Europe and other markets. The hardware is on point, Honor’s software team needs to deliver one or two updates before the Magic4 Pro truly shines. The good news is that Honor is back where it belongs, filling the void left by Huawei and giving us more options on the high end of the market. The Honor Magic4 Pro is a solid first step towards Honor’s return to dominance in the market. It’s not quite as good as the Galaxy S22 Ultra or the OnePlus 10 Pro, but it’s a great alternative if you’re looking for something that stands out in a crowd.

The Honor Magic4 Pro display put in a strong performance for color rendering, with colors that were well managed in all tested conditions. The device’s high screen-to-body ratio and a basically flicker-free display also meant that the Magic4 Pro had very few artifacts, which earned it a high score in this attribute. However, the device was a bit fickle when it came to brightness in low-light conditions because the brightness level would depend on the app in use. For example, the screen would be noticeably too bright when browsing the web in low-light conditions. Unstable brightness levels in low-light conditions also affected the video-watching experience, as did the noticeable frame drops. Our testing showed that the Magic4 Pro had many more frame drops than the Magic4 Ultimate. This is a good device for gaming thanks to a fast touch to display response time and a good smoothness.

The Honor Magic4 Pro’s battery was excellent in charging, but the device fell short on autonomy. Despite having a sizeable 4600 mAh battery, the Magic4 Pro could not reach 2 days of autonomy in the typical usage scenario; nor did it perform well in the calibrated and on-the-go tests. The device’s discharge currents were higher than average in nearly all the test cases, something that was similarly observed on other devices equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The Honor Magic4 Pro, however, handled charging very well. Thanks to its 100W charger, it took only 22 minutes to fill the battery to 80% of its capacity. The wireless charging was even more impressive, taking only 34 minutes to reach the 80% mark and making the device one of the best in wireless charging that we have tested so far. On average, a quick 5-minute charge yielded an ample 6.5 hours of autonomy. In the Ultra-Premium device segment (> $800 at launch), the Honor Magic4 Pro takes the top spot in the charging ranking, but lingers near the bottom in the autonomy and efficiency ranking.

The Magic 4 Pro isn't a revolution in mobile technology and doesn't offer any particular "must-have" features that separate it from its rivals. But it doesn't really need to. It's a high-performance flagship Android handset that ticks all of the boxes of a top phone thanks to its great performance, solid camera, fast charging and 5G connectivity. Its price is high, but it undercuts the S22 Ultra while costing almost exactly the same as the Pixel 6 Pro and OnePlus 10 Pro (with 256GB of storage). While I think the Pixel, with its stock Android 12 interface has a smoother user experience on a day-to-day basis, the Honor has a more potent processor and offers significantly faster charging speeds, the latter being of particular use if you frequently forget to fully charge your phone overnight.

The Magic 4 Pro is a flagship-grade phone from Honor that comes packed with power and very fast charging rates. There's a compelling camera selection around the back of the phone and a great display on the front. However, asking flagship prices and only offering two years of updates - on top of a software experience that's mixed - means it needs to be approached with caution.

It’s great to see Honor return with a fully-fledged flagship device, and the Magic 4 Pro certainly has a number of eye-catching features. From the ultra-fast 100W wired and wireless charging, the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, the 50MP main camera that delivers great photos, and the unique camera housing, Honor’s flagship is a sign that the brand is once again on the up. This is good news for the smartphone industry that in Europe at least, has been dominated by the BKK stable and Xiaomi over the past couple of years since the Huawei ban came into effect. However, taking off the rose-tinted glasses, it’s clear that Honor’s work isn’t done and that the Magic 4 Pro relies a little too much on sentiment and its past to be truly considered as the equal of the Galaxy S22 Ultra, or even the OnePlus 10 Pro. And that’s fine because despite having a £949 price tag in the UK, Honor is bundling in a case, Earbuds 2 Lite, and Watch GS3 with the phone which adds value to the proposition. All-in-all, the Magic 4 Pro fits like an old glove in the hand,

The HONOR Magic4 Pro brings a lot to the table with great value for its top-notch features. While Magic UI can be a bit of an eye sore and requires a lot of tweaking on the user’s side, it is a compromise that I’m willing to make if it means getting the superfast biometric security options and the ultra-sharp cameras at a price point that is not completely unreasonable. While the 100W wireless charger costs an additional RM299, I can’t see myself going back to using other wireless chargers that now feel unbearably slow, by comparison. It is a phone that I would recommend with heavy caveats, but with a thumbs up nonetheless.

The HONOR Magic4 Pro is priced at RM3,999 which is what you would expect from a typical flagship nowadays. While it is still a solid phone, it does have its fair share of drawbacks so it’s best for you to be aware of it before biting the bullet on this one.

Only if you’re feeling particularly adventurous. There isn’t really a monetary advantage when it comes to the Honor Magic4 Pro compared to other flagship phones. At €1,099, it’s an incredibly expensive handset that’s right up there with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and the iPhone 13 Pro, all while carrying a lot more risk with it. As beautiful as the hardware is, Magic UI still can’t compete with other Android skins and tries to copy iOS just a little too closely. Further, Apple and Samsung support their devices with software updates for more than four years, and Honor is still a newcomer in this market that doesn’t offer the same promises, stopping at Android 14.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro is an impressive phone, with premium performance, an excellent display, fast charging, and a powerful camera. But with minor issues ranging from poor portrait photos to inconsistent charging, there’s a distinct lack of polish, made worse by the lack of long term software support.

So, is the HONOR Magic4 Pro for you? That’s a question only you can answer. The Magic4 Pro is not perfect, but not a single phone is. This phone does feel really premium in the hand, and it’s quite large. The pill-shaped camera hole is not the most fortunate solution, but it likely won’t bother many of you. The performance is quite solid, the camera setup is good, and the sound quality is excellent. The software needs to be further polished, and so does the overall performance. I also have a feeling that HONOR can further improve the camera experience, as the included hardware is excellent. This is already quite a compelling smartphone, but with a couple of updates, it can become truly great. As things stand at the moment, I do believe there are better offerings out there in this price range. Things could change after a couple of software updates, though

As is always the case I will be using this phone as my daily driver for the next few weeks in order to evaluate the phone and give my opinions. One thing I will say is that from using it just for the 1st few hours it is very nice to be suing a true flagship grade phone from Honor. I feel that they may even be able to fill the void that has been left by Huawei, as they in my humble opinion have dropped off in the UK due to the lack of Google Mobile Services. Only time will tell if this lofty claim is to be truly lived up to but I have high hopes and I am looking forward to testing this device out.

The Honor Magic4 Pro is an awesome phone that's rather easy to recommend. It offers premium hardware and features sprinkled with some rare functionalities such as Ultra Wideband, high-frequency PWM backlight control, and an advanced facial unlock in combination with a great ultrasonic fingerprint reader. It also has a whole bunch of video recording and editing tools and the memory config. It's just that we are used to seeing Honor's flagships as somewhat more affordable than the rest. Instead, the company tries to tackle the best in the ultra premium segment. And there is nothing wrong with ambition. They've come up with a great product - even with the issues we've outlined in the review such as the unimpressive ultrawide camera low-light performance, the short battery life, the erratic and unpredictable switch between the main and telephoto camera and the arguably insignificant software annoyances. We are sure the Honor Magic4 Pro will find its place under the sun, especially in a few months when the dust settles and the pricing makes this great phone a considerably better deal.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro is in a weird spot because while it pulls off some things spectacularly well, it falters in others. The cameras are good though have major autofocus issues, the battery life is good at the expense of computation, and the software is good though lacking in some features. Every positive has an associated negative, and for the money, that’s a lot of sacrifices. While I’m glad that Honor is back, there’s a lot of work that needs to go into the company’s software before I can wholeheartedly recommend this phone. It’s a shame that the smartphone landscape is the way that it is currently, as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 seems to be a key cause of a lot of the issues smartphone makers are facing currently. Given the launch of the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 though, maybe things will get better for the second half of the year.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro has a great 120Hz OLED screen and an impressive camera system. Fast charging is hardly a novelty these days, but the fast wireless charging that's also on offer here is rare. Still, the battery capacity could be bigger and there is a lot of unnecessary software on-board, while the absence of a MicroSD card slot might disappoint some people. Even so, the Honor Magic 4 Pro is a very credible flagship smartphone.

The Honor Magic4 Pro sits just below the top-of-the-line model Magic4 Ultimate in the Honor smartphone lineup and uses many of the same components, including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset and a 6.81-inch OLED display with 1312 x 2848 resolution. In the camera module, the 3.5x tele module is the same as in the Ultimate, but both primary and ultra-wide cameras use smaller sensors than in the flagship model, and they don’t come with optical image stabilization. Let’s see how the Honor Magic4 Pro camera compares to the Ultimate and competitors from other brands in the DXOMARK Camera tests.

The Honor Magic 4 Pro represents a very strong flagship debut from the former Huawei sub-brand. It takes much of what we’ve always liked about Huawei’s premium hardware, with a sleek design, an excellent display, and a fine all-round camera system, but restores that reassuring Google support – even if Magic UI continues to be a second-tier Android skin at best. The phone’s stamina is a little lower than some of its rivals, which is a disappointment, but Honor partially makes up for this with blistering 100W wired and wireless charging support. All in all, the Magic 4 Pro sits just a bit behind the best that Apple, Google, and Samsung have to offer, but it has enough unique flourishes to make it a viable left-field alternative to any of them.

You can still see the Huawei DNA at work in the Magic 4 Pro, and I do wonder how long it will be before Honor's fully abandoned the tech of its previous owner. But looking at the phone we have right now, it’s one of the best Android phones that still deserves to be counted alongside Samsung and OnePlus. The Magic 4 Pro packs a lot into its frame, like the five rear cameras, clever display, facial recognition unlocking and 100W charging capability. The good news is all of it works really well, the only exception being the lower quality low-light photos. That could be a deal-breaker for some users, but I still consider this one of the most effective camera set-ups available on a smartphone today. U.S. users will have to stick with the Galaxy S22 Plus or the OnePlus 10 Pro if they want a sub-$1,000 flagship Android device, but they won’t find quite as many toys for the price as what Honor offers with the Magic 4 Pro. However, those toys only work at their best for specific people who will invest time into making them work.

Honor has done a good job at speccing out the hardware of the Magic4 Pro. Its cameras are high resolution, it charges incredibly fast, its screen is beautiful (curved edges notwithstanding), and overall, the device’s hardware succeeds at having that premium flagship feel. If you want a phone that can wirelessly charge faster than many other phones can do over a wired connection, then the Honor Magic4 Pro is very happy to oblige. But I was never won over by the experience of actually using the Honor Magic4 Pro. Whether it was the occasional software hiccups, the aggressive background app management, or the lock screen shortcut that got in the way too often, it often felt like wearing a pair of shoes that were just half a size too big. When a phone costs as much as a Samsung or Apple flagship, you might find a better fit elsewhere.

When Huawei sold Honor, back in 2020, many people were skeptical about the divorce, and suspected some kind of an affair still going on behind the curtains. There were even allegations that the Honor Magic 3 Pro model is just a rebranded Huawei Mate 50, although both companies firmly denied those rumors. Holding the Honor Magic 4 Pro in my hands, I can see where all this is coming from. There certainly are similarities between some devices from the ex-married couple but at the end of the day, It really doesn’t matter all that much from a consumer's point of view. I highly doubt that anyone could ever know the 100% truth behind the split. The practical result of it, however, is the fact that we now have another high quality brand to compete with the usual suspects, and this time with Google Services on board. The Magic 4 Pro looks like a high-end flagship through and through, and it should tick all the proverbial technology boxes. From the 6.81-inch LTPO OLED display to the 100x zoom telephoto lens, this phone holds a lot of promise. Time to go deeper!

Honor set out to build a best-in-class flagship with the Magic 4 Pro and it’s a welcome return to the flagship space for the company. However, while Honor succeeded in most of its ambitions, it also missed the mark in several key areas that make it a tough sell. The phone’s camera package excels at portraits and selfies but is less good for landscape detail and general flexibility. Performance and battery life are great, but the 100W charging promise is a bit of a gimmick. Magic UI 6 is a solid piece of software, but the company’s two-year update promise is a real concern for a phone that’s this expensive. I could go on. For everything the Magic 4 Pro does right, there’s a fine detail that Honor didn’t quite nail. Honor has put together a superior hardware package to the Google Pixel 6 Pro (£849) in some regards, particularly in the charging and biometrics departments. Portraits and selfies aside, though, I’d argue that Google’s cameras still take the better pictures on average, while five years of security updates make the phone a no-brainer as a long-term investment.

I’ve missed seeing a new Huawei smartphone with Google Mobile Services installed, but when I use the Honor Magic4 Pro, that feeling goes away. From the outstanding ergonomics to its promising camera and super-fast software, the Magic4 Pro is very much how I imagine a 2022 Google-equipped Huawei phone operating. This isn’t a knock against it, it’s actually a very big compliment. Ignore the Huawei-like positive aspects and there are some negatives, with the uninspiring battery life and slightly disappointing screen performance lessening its appeal against the competition. This is a particular problem when you consider the high price. But neither has taken away from how much I’ve enjoyed using the Magic4 Pro. It has slipped into my life without incident, proving to be reliable and easy to use, plus the camera is shaping up to be a winner.

The much-needed improvements in the camera, processor, display, and battery give the Honor Magic 4 and 4 Pro smartphones an incredible value in the flagship market. If you want a flagship smartphone with incredible cameras, then you can’t go wrong with either of these two smartphones. Both the smartphones will provide an excellent flagship experience but if you want a slight edge in the display, camera, charging capabilities, and water resistance, then the Honor Magic 4 Pro model makes more sense. Considering the specs and the experience the phone provides, the price of both smartphones is justified. But if want an alternative to compare before you make your decision, then the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is quite the competitor and can go toe to toe with the new Magic 4 and Magic 4 Pro series.

Despite not having a major camera brand name to work with, Honor has created an impressive camera setup for the Magic4 Pro. The company's work in image processing in particular stands out, but the hardware looks quite capable too. And it looks quite well, arranging all those sensors in an attractive fashion isn't easy. The 6.81" display on the front may be too large for some, but if you are prepared to live with those dimensions, this is one of the most capable OLED panels around. At €1100, the Honor Magic4 Pro is priced to compete with flagships from Apple and the best Android makers. That sets expectations to "high", but Honor has put together a compelling package with no obvious weak spots. Aside from one, perhaps, we need to clear up how many OS updates the phone will receive and for how long it will continue to get security patches. As for the Honor Magic V, it is one of the best foldables we've handled to date. It's priced out of the mainstream market, but well-heeled early adopters will love it.

Honor Magic 4 Pro, as Honor’s top machine king of the year, can be said to have no shortcomings in the design of configuration this time, and almost every configuration is top-level, and there are leading technologies. For example, in terms of screen, the technology that supports both LTPO and 1920 Hz high-frequency PWM dimming is very rare on other mobile phone. The multi-lens fusion photography technology in image photography also belongs to the current leading state. The optimization of the Snapdragon 8 processor, coupled with the 50W wireless fast charging technology for 100W wired customers, also maximizes the performance of Honor Magic 4 Pro. Honor Magic4Pro as the top machine king, this time is undoubtedly a success!

Model:
The latest to join the Honor family is none other than the Honor Magic 4 Pro. It is said to be the true flagship phone from this brand. In terms of its design and build, this model comes with a 6.81inches display, which is similar in scale to the Pixel 6 Pro or Galaxy S22 Ultra. However, it is worth noting that at 9.2mm, this phone is actually slightly thicker than either of those, but still weighs around the same which is 215g. It is important to understand that this is not the phone for those who prefers smaller handsets, or for those who regularly use the phone one-handed as the scale of the phone demands both hands for anything more than quickly checking an email or replying to a text.
As far as its display is concerned, this device has been equipped with the ‘Quad-curved’ 6.18inches OLED display with 1312 x 2848 resolution. The phone also carries a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz, and LTPO tech which allows the phone to scale that responsiveness down as low as 1Hz to save power. Apart from that, the phone achieves a peak brightness of 1,000 nit, which is lower than some rivals, but there are not much problems at all while using the phone even in direct, bright sunlight. It is also quite bright enough to run the phone’s included HDR10+ support. As for the audio, there is no headphone jack. There are stereo speakers though which are rather loud, bright, and fairly punchy, but not the crispest or cleanest sound around.
In terms of its specs and performance, the Honor Magic 4 Pro has been incorporated with the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset paired with either 8GB or 12GB RAM along with 256GB or 512GB of storage. Putting aside dedicated gaming phones with extra RAM or the new overclocked 8+ Gen 1 chip, there are essentially no other faster Android phones than this in 2022, with the performance margins between flagships pretty marginal. Talking about its camera, this device carries a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultrawide and a 64MP periscopic zoom. It is worth mentioning that Honor has opted to use high resolution sensors for all three lenses.
The main camera is, as one would expect, the best. The details are excellent, the dynamic range is superb, and colours are vibrant but remain true to life. However, the ultrawide tedn to drop ever so slightly. In addition, night mode is available on all three cameras, but results does not impress much by flagship standards. Apart from that, with a 4600mAh battery, the Magic 4 Pro is an all-day phone, but nothing more than that. Overall, it is a great phone to be explored, depending on the need and preference of the user.
