FULL STORY ====================================================================== Christmas has been and gone, but January is once again proving to be the most wonderful time of the year for Android phone fans. Following the launch of the OnePlus 13 series last week, Honor has debuted its own flagship offering for 2025 the Honor Magic 7 Pro on the international stage. Boasting a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a supersized 5,270mAh silicon-carbon battery, and an eye-friendly 6.8-inch display, the Magic 7 Pro sports hardware specs to rival the best Android phones on the market right now (OnePlus 13 included). However, as promised , it's Honors suite of decidedly unique software features that really catch the eye this year. Among the most interesting is Deepfake Detection, an on-device security tool that uses AI to scan for facial trickery during video calls. Honor teased the innovative new feature last year , and it finally ships with the Magic 7 Pro alongside numerous other human-centric AI tools, including AI Translation, Real-time Transcript, and Magic Portal 2.0 . The Magic 7 Pros cameras have been decked out with some neat AI wizardry, too. The snappers themselves comprise a 50MP wide lens (f/1.4-2.0, 23mm), a 50MP ultra-wide lens (f/2.0, 12mm), and a 200MP periscope telephoto lens (f/2.6, 69mm), but Honors proprietary AI Image Engine brings various AI-powered tricks to each one.

The new flagship also introduces three new software-based photography features: AI Motion Sensing Capture, HD Super Burst, and AI Super Zoom. The first two of that number allow you to capture high-speed movements or sequences in optimal clarity. AI Super Zoom, meanwhile, aims to enhance the detail of natural landscape shots taken at 30x or more using generative AI. Were currently testing the latter tool and look forward to sharing our impressions in an upcoming report.

Honors latest flagship launches today (January 15) in the UK for 1,099.99, the same launch price as last years Honor Magic 6 Pro . Given Honor's recent release strategies, availability in the US and Australia seems unlikely. The Magic 7 Pro also releases alongside a cheaper, lower-spec variant the Honor Magic 7 Lite which is now available in the UK for 399.99.
