I have Honor Magic 4 pro, two things I don't like, battery not too good and I can't make bigger icons like OPPO find or One plus !

    Anonymous, 28 Mar 2023Honor Magic 5 Pro Zoom is best. Check Dxo Mark Zoom Score. ... moreHard to say. Dxomark only test zoom at certain ranges (not sure what zoom factors they test). Definitely for long range zoom (like 10x and above) it won't be as good as something like the s23 ultra in daylight anyway. I think it's hard to say which zoom camera is the best as it depends on what zoom is measured e.g. 2x or 3x or 5x or 10x or 20x. Different phones may be stronger depending on what zoom factors are used. Also depends on the lighting I think. Oppo's new find x6 pro for example and Huawei's p60 pro seem to be very good in lowlight zoom.

Check the nighttime photos in this comparison with the main camera from this Japanese reviewer. Look at the few where he crops in and it is fairly clear that the magic 5 pro has better detail than the x90 pro+ and s23 ultra in night samples provided. However, when he compares the night zoom then the other two are indeed better in general

            AnonD-814624, 17 Mar 2023Yeah, totally down to personal preference. I'd prefer ... moreAccording to Facebook honor group page i saw samples of magic 5p and the 10x already very bad in some situations you can't compare it with 23 ultra zoom and on YouTube i saw also a review between honor magic 5p and vivo 90x plus and honor was brighter at night but no details and lights was mess

                        "A quick look through these specs reveals nothing is really missing on the Magic5 Pro."

                        And still misses the 3.5mm headphone jack.

                          As i understood this review is not based on the final software version. After comparison I'm not sure that Xiaomi 13pro ultrawide camera takes better photos. Also it would be great to compare photos capture speed honor falcon feature vs x13pro and s23 ultra ,because i doubt samsung will be first there.

                            Super Android 22, 16 Mar 2023Either one is a winner. Honor has the huawei magic (excuse ... moreYeah, totally down to personal preference. I'd prefer the honor one due to the independent rf chip that boosts the antenna signals for 5g and wifi because I have poor signal strength in my apartment and the signal strength of the magic 5 pro is really really good according to real users but that doesn't matter if you live in an area with very good signal. For most people it would boil down to software preference, which brand they prefer, and price in their region. The cameras are closely matched as are most of the specs. Unfortunately though the Honor doesn't support gms in China so I wouldn't get it for that reason

                              Anonymous, 16 Mar 2023Do you own one?No, but I was able to compare it with my S23 Ultra and if it wasn't for the S-Pen and the generally improved productivity of my Ultra I'd absolutely take the Xiaomi 13 Pro!

                                Better review score than Iphone 14. CONGRATS

                                  Super Android 22, 16 Mar 2023Either one is a winner. Honor has the huawei magic (excuse ... moreyeah, i'm using mate 30 pro right now and the ui is pretty similar. I dont like miui tbh, i'd rather use magic ui, one ui or color os but 13pro lasts 1-3hours more on a single charge depending on the usage according to the few reviews i've seen but i guess we will see more until its officially released with final software. but yeah, i do like the convenience of face unlock on my huawei so that should be nice to have.

                                    Anonymous, 16 Mar 2023And what's wrong with 109 hours?? Seriously 🙄nothing is wrong with it, but it has the same(even more technically) capacity as s23 ultra and xiaomi 13 pro but has the worse battery out of the three. Not to say its bad, its still good but many people expected a bit more looking at the spec sheet. Especially because this is a high end phone

                                      namzap, 14 Mar 2023what do you think is better, magic5 pro or xiaomi 13 pro? B... moreEither one is a winner. Honor has the huawei magic (excuse the pun, not quite prime huawei quality but not that far off). Both got great cams, great screens, build quality, battery etc. Its basically you want the extra secure face unlock or slightly brighter screen/higher res with dolby vision/record in dolby vision format.
