This will be absolutly crazy phone. There is still some old Huawei feels and aroma, but like almost everytime, with some fresh young design.
Honor and Huawei are still my favourite ones.
Huawei with lot of problems is still able to make some great devices.
Honor has huge advantage with this.
Otherwise, still there is one strange thing about Honor´s phones portfolio.
Clearly has the biggest gap between its devices.
Magic5 Pro is one of the best devices on market,
This is the time, when this phone is here just little over 700 eur, and for this price it does not have any competitor. Starting price here was around 1100 eur, but behind it, there is nothing, just phones for common users, like Honor 50-70-90 or also Magic6 lite...
They even do not have stereo speakers, and id 2024, this should be like strictly in phones costs around 350-500 eur...
I think they should be more popular also in Europe, just get normal 2024 equipment in phones up to 500 eur, maybe called better midrangers:
* At least one nice camera with OIS
* Nice display (ok, this those mentioned theoretically have)
* STEREO SPEAKERS
* Solid chipset
* Nice battery with fast charging
* And if it would have also wireless, it should be real killer.
But still, Honor´s medium phones sells really well, even there are better options.
Anyway after Honor 6, Honor 7, Huawei P10, P20 Pro and P30, it´s time to get back to enjoy Honor or Huawei, i am choosing at this moment between Magic5 Pro (720 eur) or Mate 50 Pro (630 eur)...

DVSeal, 10 Feb 2024It works great for me in the case that Huawei phones become... moreI actually really wanted to own a Honor Magic 5 Pro, but due to the issues with software updates on Global phones (I see people commenting that the updates on Global phones are not as frequent or non existent as the China exclusive phones), I have to settle on the Huawei P60 Pro. I also like the Snapdragon 8 gen 2 of the Honor Magic 5 Pro compared to the Snapdragon 8+gen 1 of the Huawei P60 Pro since newer chips are more efficient than older ones and also I can live without a native GMS but I am playing games with Google pay or the official "paying center" of Google, and without Google pay, some games will refuse you to buy items that require real life money, so that is the only downside for me.
As for the cameras, Huawei's photography is un match even by its former sister company (or that is what they say). Huawei and Honor is pretty much connected to each other because of the fact that what Huawei has, Honor also has it. From the glass to the phone design to the camera design and I even started to think that maybe Honor's Photography system named "Matrix" is just a renamed Huawei's photography system named "XMAGE". But Huawei is still the leader of Photography indeed, when using night mode, the sky would turn blue making a 7:00 PM photo look like a 5:00 PM photo instead. But what Huawei lacks is the video stability since Huawei videos tend to be more shaky than Honors, I think Huawei wants you to see that the video is caught on a "unstable ground".
I also agree with you to stay away from pixels and iphones. Google hasn't learned a lesson that using a chipset that has a "samsung" architecture is not the right way as it can throttle down real quick due to heating issues. On the other hand, Iphones are the most uninnovative and greedy phones. I just missed Steve Jobs.

Anonymous, 10 Feb 2024For my observation, I think there's no differences bet... moreYou can say that Honor and Huawei are together but they are not alr. Huawei have sold Honor to someone else as Honor will get banned by US if Huawei continue to keep honor

I'd much rather switch to this than settling down for an iphone or a pixel or a samsung which most people resort to in the past years when switching from a Huawei because of the gms thing.

Alit, 10 Jan 2024Wow^_^For my observation, I think there's no differences between huawei and honor. From the design to the camera charging everything looks almost the same except that they have different name.
If you loves huawei phones and you can't buy because of the software issues I you can easily buy honor as an alternative.

Imrankhanconquerer, 22 Jan 2024Waiting to see it's satellite connectivity if it works... moreI actually got this phone from China and the satellite phone does work outside of China. When I signed up for the sim card (You need a subscription to use the satellite feature), they told me that it covers most part of Asia(not worldwide tho). The phone works great, GMS is basically built it. Just need to enable it in settings. The china version does not have esim.

Super Android 22, 23 Jan 2024Huawei actually does for flagship devices, kunlun glass is ... moreHuawei and Honor use the same glass they just named it differently so it's not as obvious. It is not stated anywhere of course but it is pretty obvious they are still sharing most technology just on the down low.
Both state their glass is 10x stronger than on other phones, both use silicon carbon batteries now that are originally patented and developed by Huawei, both have exactly the same chargers and even charging animations etc.
It's generally good stuff because you can essentially have your pick between Huawei and Huawei with GMS depending on what tickles your pickle.

I would be very surprised if the Magic 6 Pro is not e-SIM compatible, why don't you state that in the specs?
