HONOR Magic 6 Pro REVIEW | More sparkle than MAGIC?
Переглядів 32,183
День томуI used the HONOR Magic 6 Pro for two whole weeks as my day-to-day phone. I LOVE the display and cameras, but there are small things that mean this flashy Android phone doesn't fully stand out from the crowd.

I've had every pixel phone and fancied a change three weeks in with the Magic6Pro I'm liking it, it's really grown on me, as suggested in other comments I use Gboard and made it bigger, compared to the Pixel8Pro I had the hardware is better, the screen is better, the battery life is better, the sound is better, the software isn't as good but it's pretty good, cameras are really good, really happy with it 👍
@brasavid 29 днів тому
And the network signal is recieved much (really much) better than on a samsung, pixel or iphone. (Yes, i make phone calls with a phone, a thing that reviewers evidently dont do)

Why don't you raise the keyboard? On Google keyboard you can raise the keyboard so like there will be an empty space beneath the keyboard

It's using a Microsoft Swiftkey keyboard which, he can just raise and move up the whole keyboard easily to match his thumb position.
@TAKUMI143 Місяць тому
You can always adjust your keyboard's bottom space 😂 both on Gboard & SwiftKey ( default )
@The_Z_Force Місяць тому
I love its curved screen. Hides the little bezels very well and makes swiping from the bottom or sides easier. Hate the boxy brick designs with flat screens. It is the only reason I didn't get S24 Ultra and waited for this.
@lltechview Місяць тому
I use the default swiftkey keyboard and just resize and move it a bit up. That makes it a very good typing device. Maybe even resize the left and right size as well, so keys don't touch the curved screen

Assuming that if I buy one for use here in the USA it will work fine if I am only getting it for the camera and occasional updates using wifi?
@toysupra09 Місяць тому
Great content. On my HM5 Ultimate in settings you have to select "direct unlocked" so you won't have to swipe up during face unlock. I'm glad Honor phones work great here in the states because I've grown tired of Samsung and Apple.

@tweetlikepeet6355 Місяць тому
I give you total right, the typing is so shitty, BUT, use Swiftkey and change the SIZE of the keyboard and swipe the bottom a little higher, than it will be like every other phone, as Honor makes it too much down the bottom, which gave me always miss placed letters. Now it is the same like all other pones and of course, when gestures activated, activate the line on the bottom.
@fiuploii 21 день тому
better sound?
@ismailakram Місяць тому
How are haptics on this phone? Lack of haptics on the back gesture, I can't position the keyboard the way I want, and then can't use the 3rd party launcher is a few of the annoyances I have felt. Thing I loved the most is display more specifically watching HDR content is way better than S23 Ultra or OnePlus 11 or even Xiaomi 13 Ultra (talking about Honor Magic 5 Pro) Phone smoothening is only matched by OnePlus 11 else S23 Ultra or Xiaomi 13 Ultra feels less smooth compared to Honor.

I can see that Honor has a lot of room to improve. This is brand new phone, only 3 weeks old in the market. Im pretty sure that the company are listening to the reviews, and should make an update it in the future.

Keyboard is customisable. Are you just forcing to look for some negatives
@samtheman7366 Місяць тому
Why Magic 6 Pro? At least in europe absolutely flagship specs without compromise but 400€ cheaper. You could save 200€ more with Pixel 8 Pro or Oneplus 12, but then we are not talking about the highest flagship specs and performance(Mostly the camera on oneplus12 and the chipset + battery on the P8Pro).

@@xeon2k8I watched the video, i actually watched many more videos and comparisons and I can say I like the hm6p in low light, and often like it more than pixel or samsung that overbrighten the scene. Video stabilization is a point i guess, but also remember honor has better screen, battery, charging speed, so its not just benchmark score lol. Also face unlock is amazing. Educate yourself a bit before shitting on something and also remember cameras are somehow subjective.

I have a Honor 50, I can vouch for battery life stays outstanding even after 2 years. I dropped it into water many times and came out without any damage. I cannot really say the same for any of the IPhones or Samsungs I owned in the past. The only reason I am thinking about upgrading is due to the video lagging with 4k recording, but I think I will stick to Honor in the future.
@kennetha6594 Місяць тому
Sorry, but this is a poor review. Why are you surprised with the face unlock being good? It literally has the same mechanism present on iPhones. As a lot of people have suggested here, the keyboard can be greatly customised if you care enough. Please put a little more effort into your reviews.
@1PaulJ Місяць тому
A lot of effort went into the review actually. I found the keyboard difficult to use, average consumers won't know how to move the keyboard up & this was my experience.

@SDav21 Місяць тому
Samsung is truly overrated and every Samsung product I've had crapped out after 2 years or before. Every galaxy S up to the S20 either had major battery issue before the 2 year mark and they become super laggy and slow and a few of my galaxy devices just crashed. Software wise, I didn't dig it either. The galaxy z fold was the last straw. Literally just before the 2 year mark it no longer wants to charge and switches off when folded even with 100% charge. So clearly something has gone wrong. And it isn't just their phones. Samsung fridge and microwave were shite always needing repairs. I once had an LG phone and my family still uses my V30 to this day. And my Huaweis were always rock solid never slowing down, battery remaining good and overall being way better built than an equivalent Samsung. For all these reasons, Samsung is off my list so I'll take anything else. The Google Pixel isn't available in my country.
