HONOR’s CEO, Zhao Ming, talked to the media following the HONOR 100 series launch in China. The company’s CEO did actually mention HONOR’s upcoming flagships during the interview. He said, according to Sparrows News, that the HONOR Magic6 series will be “meticulously refined”.
The HONOR Magic6 series to be ‘meticulously refined’, says CEO
Something along the lines of “groundbreaking innovations” was also mentioned. Zhao Ming did confirm the inclusion of satellite communication in the HONOR Magic6 series. We’re not sure if that functionality will be available globally, though. The company will also be relying on AI quite a bit when it comes to the Magic6 series.
Now, the HONOR Magic6 series is expected to launch next year. The HONOR Magic5 series launched in February this year, so the Magic6 series is expected around the same time. In fact, we expect those phones to arrive around MWC 2024.
Earlier, a well-known tipster, Digital Chat Station, said that the Magic6 Pro will include a 1-inch camera sensor. Surprisingly, however, he mentioned OmniVision’s upcoming OV50K camera sensor.
The Magic6 Pro will use a 1-inch camera sensor with LOFIC tech
This camera sensor will introduce something called the LOFIC technology. (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor). This should help prevent overexposure in HDR images.
We don’t have all the information about that camera sensor, in fact, the information is scarce. OmniVision is expected to announce it in the near future, and the Magic6 series could have an exclusive period with it.
That will be the company’s first 1-inch camera sensor, by the way. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is expected to fuel the HONOR Magic6 Pro, as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 was included inside the HONOR Magic5 Pro.
Android 14 is expected to come out of the box, along with HONOR’s MagicOS 8.0. The phone will also pack in top-of-the-line specs across the board, including a 120Hz LTPO OLED display with high PWM dimming, stereo speakers, top-of-the-line RAM and storage, and so on.
