Images are horrible overprocessed mess but somehow, they've managed to make video even worse. This has to be the worst flagship camera phone of the year.

        It would be beyond ridiculous to assume that it is somehow just a slightly modified version of 9000 when it has been shown numerous times that they are completely different, here you're the only one who believes in your own conspiracy theory.

            Upon further inspection, I realised why P70 Ultra's photos look a bit "off" in many situations. Sharpening isn't a problem (It looks fairly restrained to my eyes), but an aggressive HDR tonemapping and local contrast boost to emphasise details give these photos a very iPhone-esque look. I don't see any tint or colour shift caused by its RYYB CFA, but everything looks as if it has been imported to Lightroom and the clarity boost has been set to 50. These photos have a hard tonality which I'm simply not a fan of.

            I think the sheer amount of effort put into the development of motion compensation algorithms is impressive (Samples on X show it really can freeze movements without introducing a lot of unnatural artifacts), but what makes the cameras on Xiaomi and Oppo flagships so attractive is their colour mode - Leica Authentic and Hasselblad Master Mode really have a muted look that adds depth to a certain tones (mostly greens). Huawei's greens, in comparison, simply look dull and flat in most of these photos. Huawei just doesn't have any character to its colour rendition, and it's something they'll have to figure out sooner or later.

              Disappointed... should have atleast priced it right, but the 10x telephoto quality seems good though

                Is it known whether the periscope uses again an RYB color filter?

They have to innovate all over again, other Oem would just use Qualcomm tech or licence them but Huawei has to create it from scratch.

                  This newer kirin is indeed different, it use Bigger core equivalent of Cortex X, same core used in Kunpeng, that's why you see Geekbench single core of 1400, normal android core wouldn't be able to reach that score, you can also check cpu throttling, this one throttle a lot like any other soc with Cortex X.

EVERY SMARTPHONE COMPANY DOES IT. They all spy/sell your data and whatnot. There were many other reasons, known and unknown, for the US ban that hit Huawei.

                                Compared to the Magic6 Pro, GSMarena said that the Honor is on par with the regular cameras.

                                But how does it stack up with the telephoto? Specifically at 10x range? It seemed to me like the Magic6 runs out of steam really fast after 5x.

Huawei really has a ton on their plate, no 5G and Google mobile services for the global release, plus a ton of competitors offering a much better, complete package (Xiaomi 14 Ultra, iPhone 15 pro, Samsung S24 Ultra). Also, like mentioned, these are cheaper than the asking price of Huawei's latest.
