Leading the flagship to new heights
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the Qilian Mountains, and the sky was gradually shrouded in a touch of light purple. This tranquil scene seems to speak of a supreme power, an unremitting pursuit of perfection. On this silent night, a new flagship phone was born - the Honor Magic6 Ultimate.
This is a mobile phone with a very technological and artistic atmosphere, which perfectly integrates the Tianqionghao Realm at sunset in the Qilian Mountains with the Black Rock City in the secret realm of western Sichuan, and introduces two high-end colors of Tianqiong Purple and Moyan Black. Made of plain leather, with delicate stitching and high-end leather texture, it shows the luxury temperament of the ultimate version, both visually and in the hand.
The Honor Magic6 Ultimate has a unique exterior design with a highly recognizable square image module. This irregular, rounded rectangular design is inlaid with a circle of gold trim on the outside and misaligned lines on both sides of the body, highlighting the unity of strength and elegance. Inside the module, we can see three cameras and a flash, of which the square design at the top is a 180-million-pixel periscope telephoto lens that achieves up to 100x zoom.
DSLR-level image experience
The biggest highlight of the Honor Magic6 Ultimate is its super imaging capabilities. It is equipped with an ultra-high light ratio H9800 sensor with LOFIC technology. The so-called LOFIC technology is a high-density capacitor placed next to the pixel to collect the light electrons that would otherwise spill due to saturation, thereby greatly improving the dynamic range, and a single frame photo can reach 15EV, which is comparable to a professional DSLR camera.
With this main camera, there is also a 1200-point lidar array focusing system. This is the industry's first high-resolution laser focus array on a mobile phone, which enables precise focus on fast-moving objects, effectively reducing out-of-focus when shooting moving targets.
In the camera app, we can also change "Focus Priority" to "Sports Focus Priority" to further improve focusing performance.
Measurements show that the Honor Magic6 Ultimate can reproduce the most realistic colors and precisely control highlights and shadows, whether in backlit or evenly lit daytime scenes. Even in mixed indoor lighting environments, it can also take photos with soft colors and a pleasant look. In night scenes, the device's excellent noise cancellation capabilities are impressive. Even when shooting fast-moving targets, you can still capture clear images with a powerful focusing system.
The telephoto capability of the Honor Magic6 Ultimate is also among the best in the industry. It uses a 180-million-pixel outsole sensor, which can effectively reduce noise, providing a solid foundation for low-light photography. Judging from the samples, the detail in the long view is very strong, and even when zoomed in, you can see amazing resolution.
Eye-friendly visual experience
The Honor Magic6 Ultimate not only has excellent performance in terms of imaging, but its display is also a highlight. The phone uses a 6.8-inch Honor Oasis eye protection screen with a resolution of up to 2800x1280 and supports a high refresh rate of 120Hz.
The screen uses a Tandem dual-layer OLED structure, which uses two layers of light-emitting devices to work in series, which greatly reduces power consumption and extends the life of the screen. This technology has only been used in high-end TVs before, and it is the first time in the field of mobile phones.
In addition to excellent hardware specifications, the Honor Oasis eye protection screen also has a unique visual experience. It uses 4320Hz ultra-high frequency PWM dimming technology, which effectively eliminates the flickering problem of traditional screens and brings users an unprecedented eye protection experience. With a peak brightness of up to 5,000 nits and a global brightness of up to 1,600 nits, the screen delivers a detailed and rich picture content in both direct sunlight and dark environments.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen3 delivers full performance
The strength of the Honor Magic6 Ultimate is also reflected in its top-of-the-line hardware configuration. The phone is equipped with the third-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, which is manufactured on TSMC's 4nm process and has a CPU frequency of up to 3.3GHz. With 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, it's easy to handle whether you're using it every day or running big games or apps.
In gaming testing, the Honor Magic6 Ultimate did an impressive job. Even when running a large triple-A game like Genshin Impact, its frame rate can still be maintained at around 59fps, and the power consumption is only 4.76W, which is 17.6% lower than the previous generation. Thanks to the ultra-wide-area liquid cooling module, the temperature of the fuselage can always be controlled within 40 degrees Celsius, and there will be no hot feeling when holding it with both hands.
The Honor Magic6 Ultimate's outstanding performance is not just due to the Snapdragon 8 Gen3. Honor has carried out in-depth system-level optimization at the hardware and software levels, so that this mobile phone can achieve the ultimate balance between power consumption control and performance release.
The battery life is worry-free
The Honor Magic6 Ultimate's outstanding performance is also reflected in its excellent battery capability. The phone comes with a large 5600mAh battery and supports 80W wired fast charging. In the charging test, it only takes 38 minutes to charge from 1% to 100%, which brings great convenience to users.
The HONOR Magic6 Ultimate's excellent sailing capabilities are also due to its low-power hardware design. It adopts BOE's flexible OLED low-power solution, which has been fully optimized from multiple levels such as screen structure and light-emitting devices, so that the power consumption is greatly reduced. The phone is also equipped with a new generation of LTPO technology, which enables the screen to have a stepless speed change capability from 1Hz to 120Hz, which can minimize power consumption when the picture is still in motion.
The Honor Magic6 Ultimate's excellent battery life is not achieved by brute force. It uses Honor's own E1 energy-enhancing chip, which intelligently schedules the working status of each hardware component to achieve system-level power consumption optimization, so that the mobile phone can play excellent performance while also taking into account excellent battery life.
Rugged and durable, open without worry
In pursuit of excellent performance, the Honor Magic6 Ultimate does not ignore the durability requirements for daily use. This mobile phone uses Honor's self-developed King Kong giant rhino glass, which has outstanding performance in scratch and drop resistance.
Based on the second-generation nano-glass-ceramic technology, the optimized material formula increases the crystal density by 50%, the storage stress by 20%, and the overall drop resistance by 30% compared with traditional glass. In harsh environments such as marble, asphalt, and gravel pavement, it can achieve a 10-fold increase in drop resistance in all scenarios.
More Glory King Kong Giant Rhino Glass is the industry's first mobile phone screen glass that has passed the Swiss SGS multi-scene gold standard five-star scratch and drop resistance certification. Its hardness is comparable to that of ceramic, and keys, blades, and sandpaper cannot leave scratches on its surface, opening a new era of mobile phones without film.
