Honor has officially introduced the Magic8 RSR Porsche Design in China, alongside the Magic8 Pro Air. These new models enhance the Magic lineup, joining the Magic8 Pro and Magic8 that debuted last October.
Continuing the tradition of Honor's RSR Porsche Design series, the latest Magic8 variant showcases a striking design with styling cues inspired by Porsche supercars. Additionally, it features a nano-ceramic rear panel, which Honor claims has a Mohs hardness rating of 8.5.
Importantly, the Magic8 RSR Porsche Design is reported to be 10% lighter than its predecessor. The camera module design draws inspiration from the matrix headlights found on classic Porsche models.
The device boasts a 6.71-inch quad-curved LTPO AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, offering peak HDR brightness of 6,000 nits. It also supports Dolby Vision and 4,320Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, all protected by Giant Rhino Glass.
Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, available with up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. It operates on Android 16-based Magic UI 10.0, equipped with a variety of AI features.
In terms of photography, the Magic8 RSR Porsche Design includes a 50MP 1/1.3-inch main rear sensor with f/1.6 and optical image stabilization (OIS). For wide-angle shots, it features a 50MP sensor with a 122-degree field of view, supporting macro photography as well. The zoom capabilities stem from a 200MP 1/1.4-inch sensor with an f/2.6 aperture, OIS, and 3.7x optical zoom.
Honor emphasizes that this model receives the first-ever CIPA 6.5 rating for stabilization. It also includes an AiMAGE color engine and the ability to use an external 200mm telephoto lens from Nox.
For selfies, the device offers a 50MP sensor located within a pill-shaped cutout on the front, accompanied by a 3D depth camera for facial recognition.
Powering the device is a 7,200mAh battery that supports 120W SuperCharge (wired) and 80W wireless charging. Additional specifications include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, infrared sensor, an IP68/IP69/IP69K rating, 5G connectivity, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and NFC support. It weighs 239g and measures 8.45mm in thickness.
