Honor is gearing up for the much-anticipated release of its Magic 6 series devices. Following the 3C certification received by the Honor Magic 6 (code-named BVL-AN00) last month, the Magic 6 Pro, identified as BVL-AN16, has also successfully passed the 3C certification. This confirmation highlights its support for satellite connectivity.

DCS sheds light on a 1″ OV50K main sensor, 3D ToF face recognition, variable aperture, and more

In addition to the 3C certification details, there are now rumors circulating about the specifications of the Magic 6 Pro, courtesy of DCS. These speculations shed light on the device’s advanced technologies, including 3D Time-of-Flight (ToF) face recognition inside the pill-shaped cutout in the middle, OV50H/OV50K image sensors, an impressive 160-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, and variable aperture capabilities. Excitingly, there are rumors of a design collaboration with Porsche.

The mentioned OV50K is a 1-inch camera sensor from OmniVision, signaling an upgrade in the camera system compared to its predecessor, the Honor Magic 5 Pro. The latter featured a 1/1.12-inch main sensor. For the front camera, the same 12-megapixel selfie is expected.

While specific configurations are still under wraps, tech enthusiasts can draw parallels with the Huawei Mate60 series, which supports features like 3D ToF face recognition and variable aperture.

Looking at the predecessor, the Honor Magic 5 Pro, equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, it’s reasonable to expect the Honor Magic 6 Pro to feature the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. The Magic 5 Pro boasted a 6.81-inch quad-curved display panel with a peak brightness of 1,800 nits and a 120Hz LTPO refresh rate. Additionally, it featured a robust 5,450mAh (typical) battery, supporting 66W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging. Notably, the 3C certification has now confirmed 100W charging support for the Honor Magic 6 Pro.
