Honor Magic V6 UK Initial Impressions
So I purchased the Honor Magic V6 on launch day and it was delivered yesterday. I chose the Black version with the free Honor 10 Tablet and Keyboard. I used the pre reg £600 voucher and Honor Points. I added the 100w charger and my total was £1349. I am hoping to sell the tablet for £200.
Battery:
Charged at 13:00 on Sat 4th and it is now 13:44 on Sunday 5th. I am on 68%. I think overnight it dropped by about two percent.
Cameras:
The Honor Magic V3 cameras were a complete joke. The V6 cameras are just brilliant. Faces are not AI slop and the detail levels are amazing. Colours are great on people and grass, sky, buildings etc..I have used the S26 Ultra, Vivo X200&300 Pro and X200 Ultra and Oppo Find X9 Pro this year. I can tell the photos are from Honor, but that is not a bad thing. Unless you really pixel peep, you will not notice much. For a parent with kids or on a day out, the camera is excellent. I think the pics of people clearly beat Vivo and Oppo cameras. Everything else I think is just preference. Samsung lags way behind in everything.
Software:
I had a Magic V5 for about 3 days before I went back to S26 Ultra. I missed one ui. However, I wanted to give Honor another go and Magic OS is growing on me. I gave the V5 back as I got it close to the V6 launch. I have set up my apps exactly like I had on One UI. I wish Honor will allow the inner screen and outer screen to have different layouts. I have no issues with software.
Inner Screen:
This is where I ask myself, why the hell did I go back to a slab phone. The viewing experience is good and the fact I can put the phone down and watch while eating breakfast, it is the small things!
These 3 areas are what I have focused on as the phone is around a day old, but any questions, please ask.
