Honor has announced that its upcoming Magic 6 series will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile platform. The Magic 6 will also feature a new AI assistant called YOYO and an eye-tracking-based multimodal interaction called Magic Capsule.

YOYO is powered by an on-device large language model with 7 billion parameters, which means that it can perform complex tasks such as answering questions, creating short videos, and providing personalized recommendations without the need to send any data to the cloud.

Another feature is Magic Capsule, which Honor says is a new way to interact with your phone using your eyes. It will be powered by Snapdragon Seamless technology, although Honor has not yet announced any specific details about how it will work.

The Honor Magic 6 series will reportedly consist of two smartphones, the Honor Magic 6 and the Magic 6 Pro. The latter has already been spotted in the wild with a pill-shaped notch and is expected to have the same 12MP ultrawide selfie camera and time of flight (ToF) 3D camera as the Magic 5 Pro.

Honor has not yet announced a release date for the Magic 6 series, but we expect it to arrive early next year.
