Camera
The Magic7 Pro’s camera system is a standout feature, equipped with a versatile triple-lens setup. The HONOR Falcon Camera system is a powerhouse.

With its 50MP Super Dynamic Falcon Main Camera, 200MP Telephoto Camera, and 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera with autofocus, it captures breathtaking images with incredible detail, as seen in some of the samples below:

The Magic7 Pro leverages AI to enhance its camera capabilities. AI Scene Recognition intelligently optimises camera settings for different scenes, ensuring optimal image quality. AI Portrait Mode delivers professional-looking portraits with accurate subject separation and bokeh effects. AI Night Mode captures stunning low-light photos with reduced noise and enhanced detail.

The AI Super Zoom feature allows you to capture clear and detailed photos of distant subjects. The advanced AI algorithms reduce noise and enhance clarity, even in low-light conditions.

The camera app also offers a Stage Mode, which is designed for video enthusiasts. It enhances the subject’s focus while subtly blurring the background, creating a cinematic effect. This mode is perfect for recording presentations, performances, or any scenario where the subject is the star.

The front camera meanwhile is a 50MP Wide Camera, along with a 3D ToF Camera placed next to it.

Whether you’re on a business call or travelling abroad, it offers real-time translation of voice and text, making language barriers a thing of the past.

Then, there’s the AI Interpreter, which goes a step further by providing dynamic interpretation during live conversations. This feature ensures that meetings and interactions flow smoothly, regardless of linguistic differences.

AI Eraser allows you to say goodbye to photo bombers. This feature lets you remove unwanted objects or people from your photos effortlessly, thanks to advanced AI technology that seamlessly fills in the background.

AI Cut Out is another of my favourite AI tools for creating perfect cutouts. Whether it’s for professional use or social media, this feature helps you isolate subjects with precision, offering clean and crisp edges.

AI Outpainting meanwhile, extends the boundaries of your photos by filling in the surroundings, effectively ‘outpainting’ the scene. This feature is ideal for creating panoramas or enhancing landscape shots.

Another exciting feature that is coming in Q2 of 2025 is AI Deep Fake Detection. In an era where digital integrity is crucial, the AI Deep Fake Detection feature adds a layer of security by identifying and flagging altered images or videos, ensuring authenticity in your media.

Specs and Performance
Powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, the HONOR Magic7 Pro delivers exceptional performance. Throw in 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, and you get a device that handles demanding tasks, such as gaming and multitasking, with ease.

The large 5850mAh battery capacity ensures long-lasting usage, while HONOR’s 100W Wired and 80W Wireless SuperCharge technology allows for quick top-ups.

Verdict
The HONOR Magic7 Pro is a premium flagship smartphone that excels in almost every aspect. Its stunning design, exceptional display, powerful camera system, and intelligent AI features make it a compelling choice for users. For a price of AED 3999, you also get gifts worth AED 1547. This includes a Fuji Instax mini Link 3 printer (worth AED 649), the HONOR CHOICE S7 (worth AED 399), and the HONOR CARE 6-month package (worth AED 499). The HONOR Magic7 Pro offers exceptional value for the money, delivering a premium experience that rivals the best in the market.

The HONOR Magic7 Pro thus walks away with the Gadget Voize Editors’ Choice award.

Price: AED 3999
