Honor's best phone yet: standout telephoto camera, class-leading OLED, long battery life and seven years of updates, though software and glass protector options are drawbacks.
Telephoto camera produces near DSLR-quality shots
Class-leading OLED with strong eye-friendly features
Ultrafast charging and about two days of battery
Seven years of OS updates
Rugged IP68/IP69K build with good haptics
Magic OS still feels clunky in places
Curved glass makes tempered protectors harder to find
A premium flagship with top performance, a great display and superb battery life, held back by low-light camera flaws, fussy software and a bulky camera bump. Probably not recommended given…
Great performance with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
Excellent 6.71-inch display with high peak brightness
Superb battery life and fast charging
Long seven-year OS and security update commitment
Versatile camera system with strong long zoom
Bulky camera module that doubles phone thickness
Disappointing low-light camera performance and white balance
