Recent poll results have shown a clear preference for the Honor Magic8 Pro over the standard Magic8 model. The Pro variant's superior camera capabilities have played a significant role in its rising popularity among consumers.
Honor Magic8 and Magic8 ProVoters have expressed high satisfaction with the Honor Magic8 Pro, with many anticipating positive reviews to further bolster its reputation. However, some skepticism remains regarding the extent of the camera improvements advertised by Honor.
A notable portion of respondents are waiting for the upcoming Ultra model to be unveiled before making a final decision. Nevertheless, the majority seems inclined towards the Pro version due to its attractive balance of features and pricing.
Criticism has been directed at the significant discrepancy in battery capacity between regional variants, particularly in the Euro model, as well as past negative experiences with MagicOS among some users.
Meanwhile, the Honor Magic8 has garnered less attention and has received a lower level of positive feedback in comparison. It faces potential competition from the rumored Magic8 Mini, although interest appears to be gravitating towards the larger Pro model.
Consumers are also considering alternative options from competing brands, such as the Oppo Find X9 series and the vivo X300 series, which have announced upcoming global releases. Xiaomi's 17 series and potential new entries in the Honor Magic8 lineup are anticipated to reveal further details on their global availability.
Looking back at last year's release schedule, the Honor Magic7 Pro was unveiled in late October and launched in China shortly after. However, its availability in Europe was delayed until mid-January of the following year. If you are eyeing the Magic8 Pro and reside in Europe, be prepared for a potential wait until an official launch timeline is confirmed by Honor.
