HONOR Magic6 Pro 12GB+512GB Black / Green Dual Sim, Snapdragon 8 Gen3, 5600mAh Smartphone with code

Chinese version so no warranty, nearly 2 months for delivery and also stuck with chinese version of magicOS so no android auto among other issues

They have given it No1 for camera as well ✅

Agreed, I thought there would be better deals, with the 5 pro there was free wireless headphones, wireless charger and an case, the plug and clear case came as standard in the box.

Even with the V2 there was some headphones.

Be careful mate, that could turn into a pretty expensive brick if it was taken on a contract and the seller gets tired of paying.

I think there will be better offers, but not immediately, surprising they aren't offering a freebie now being honest, but suppose £250 off they think is good enough.

Also bought a Magic 5 Pro. 

By far the worst software I have ever used on a phone. 

Saw your initial impression video of the phone. Looking forward for your comparison.

I believe that the Oneplus had esim. Useful if you're traveling

I received it today and these are my first impressions and ofc just my opinion:

Display: best display hands down - had tried the S24 Ultra and had experience with the M5P which was better than the S24U. This is a bit better than the M5P (probably due to brighter HDR but more than that it's the clarity/maybe tech that is kind to the eyes that the Honor devices have which are a level above others)

Speakers are very impressive, louder than the M5P from memory and better to my ears than S24U although I never pumped the S24U too loud as I found the lost a bit in the loudest volume.

Cameras: I haven't tested these in depth at all and last time I got bitten by the M5P with rainbow banding that not many people reported but was very prominent on my device and Honor support said it was due to the camera glass so returned it so won't make a judgement yet. I have been quietly impressed though with my tests so far. More aesthetically pleasing than the S24U indoors and less saturation than M5P on the green grass outdoors (that's a good thing as M5P would be very heavy on the green and blue saturation). The green still pops in comparison to S24U in overcast conditions but not too much which I personally prefer as I found the S24U bit flat. Clarity and detail seem very good though so far. The one thing I noticed is that the lights can cause a a small halo around them however I tested the camera by putting the focus on a bright lightbulb and it was able to capture the metal contacts inside clearly which I was surprised about (I tested this with a mate 20 and that wasn't able to do that) so maybe a software improvement can eliminate. Selfies are better than M5P for sure. Ultrawide is wider so need to test the stretching effect a bit more with landscapes where you would normally use it.

Battery: can't really comment but the charging speed is very very good considering the higher capacity so no worries there and absolutely feel no battery anxiety as the M5P was awesome and this should be even better according to battery tests others have done.

Other: absolutely love the face unlock - very accurate, this thing works in a very dark room as I pleasantly found out! Other android devices I have tested haven't been able to do this but need to test this further to fully confirm.

Edit: confirmed the face unlock works in a completely dark room with the display being at minimum brightness. Very impressive

So far quietly impressed though but just need to see if the cameras fit my needs as the only reason I had returned the M5P was the camera.

Tip: change the animations to 0.5 in developer options to make the UI a lot more snappy (edited)

I'd honestly say this is universally true of upgrading from any current gen flagship to the next gen flagship. Whethers it's Honor, Samsung, Apple or any other brand.

It's predecessor is still £749, so I'm not sure it will be as cheap as you say.


I'm happy to pay an extra £100 or so and not have to wait - life's short. (edited)

OnePlus 12 CN version flashed with oxygen all day for me

In fairness, I think there is a lot of pressure on these companies about being more environmentally friendly and not filling landfill with old chargers, however I suspect the main motivation is it's cheaper for them.

They are useless with cashback. Check the reviews. Worth a go but wouldn't hold your breath. Definitely allow at least 12 months to get it....

Yes exactly. Most have gone for 5x optical.
Magic 5 pro head 3.5x. Which was decent

Did you get the £500 off after trading in any phone? For example a crap phone for £9.you get £500 off?

I would say yes, I was on the same boat as you.
My P30P battery isn't gerat any more, only can handle about 3000mAh and I have to keep deleting video/photos to save storage as I only have 256GB.
I would keep using my P30P if I can make the storage larger.
So I bought the 16GB+1TB version, and works great so far.

10% for me, their code matches one above but different to the one emailed as a honor subscriber/member so make sure you use the 1 they listed.

Mine arrived today with tablet/case/charger - not sure how much protection their case offers, lifts camera off table and bumper corners.

Everything just downloading on both

Does come with factory fitted screen protector (edited)

That's really helpful, thanks. I've had my P30 Pro for 5 years now and been waiting for a worthy successor. I had a new battery in my P30 last year, so will probably hang on a bit longer, as it's still doing everything I need it to.

I haven't done any research on the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, but personally I would choose the phone I wanted first and foremost. It sounds like yoir decision is geared towards the tablet differences.

The 6 lite? It's already out.

Absolutely no problems at all. I've bought a few honor products over the years and returned a couple of them without a hitch. Don't worry about it, you'll be fine. I really like the m6pro myself but am not long into my oppo. If I was up for a change I'd be right in there. Go for it! (edited)

The parts alone cost far more than that, let alone R&D, Vat, Shipping, Distribution and shipping

I think if buying for the first time then its fine. However replacing a phone every one or 2 years "just because harry next door has one..." does seem pointless and a waste of money... Lifecycle should be minimum 4 years unless something breaks tbh.

Let us know what you think

Mine arrived today to my workplace, but I've not had time to have a proper play and I'm out for an Italian now.

I'll be back in touch later

Is wonda still the best place to purchase one or is it cheaper somewhere else with as good customer service ?

Reviews for 6 isn't great. Stick with 5 pro. I'll be sticking with it

How? Can I get on V2?

Why the heck not.
