The Honor Magic 8 and 8 Pro are Honor’s next flagships, coming soon, and reportedly launching with Qualcomm’s new flagship chip, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Now, a new leak details almost all the specifications for the series.
Magic 8 series specifications leak
The Magic 8 series is reportedly going to be announced on October 15 in China, so there’s not much time left for wondering. And there isn’t going to be much wondering, too, as a new leak is now detailing almost all there is to know about the Magic 8 and Magic 8 Pro.

Leaked Magic 8 specifications:
- 6.78-inch OLED display
- 7,000mAh battery
- 90W wired, no wireless charging
- 50MP main, 50MP ultrawide, 200MP periscope zoom
- 50MP front camera
- Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
Leaked Magic 8 pro specifications:
- 6.71 OLED
- 7,200mAh battery
- 120W wired, 80W wireless charging
- 50MP wide-angle, 50MP ultra-wide, and 50MP periscope
- Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
The vanilla Magic 8 may sport a gorgeous 6.78-inch flat OLED display, rocking a 1.5K pixel resolution. Of course, the huge battery capacity stands out for this model, as well as for the Pro-branded model. Curiously, the Magic 8 won’t support (reportedly) wireless charging, while its wired charging speed caps out at 90W, which is still huge.
As for the cameras, the Magic 8 is also rumored to include a red maple multispectral camera, which should help with improved color accuracy, especially with photos taken in low-light scenarios. The Oppo Find X9 series is also rocking this type of camera.
The Magic 8 is said to be available in black, white, light blue, and gold colors.
On the other hand, the Magic 8 Pro is said to rock a micro quad curved display, and unlike its other sibling, it may support wireless charging. It again rocks a huge battery and super-fast 120W wired charging, blowing the likes of Apple and Samsung away, basically.
The Pro model is also said to weigh approximately 222 grams. Both phones are reportedly going to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
Serious specs on paper, iPhone 17 and Galaxy S26 may need to be worried
One of the most eye-catching things in the leaked specs for the Honor Magic 8 series is those batteries and charging. No iPhone or Galaxy features such huge batteries right now, and battery life is more important than ever with the demanding things we now do on our phones. Coupled with the rumored super-fast charging for the Magic 8 and 8 Pro, we’re looking at two solid phones ready for the real business.
Honor Magic 8 series soon to be unveiled in China
These two phones should soon be unveiled in China, and subsequently, at least the Pro variant should be available outside of China as well. I feel like these impressive specs are something both Apple and Samsung should work to take inspiration from. I mean, come on, we now have phones with 7,000mAh batteries and 120W charging, what are Apple and Samsung doing?
Unfortunately, where I have problems with brands like Honor is the software side of things. Often, these OSes feel a bit bloated or lacking in comparison to iOS or One UI.
