Honor is all set to launch the Honor Magic 8 series of flagship phones in October in China. Like the Vivo X300 Pro and Oppo Find X9 Pro, the Honor Magic 8 Pro will also sport a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. At the same time, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has shared some details about the said periscope camera.
Honor Magic 8 Pro camera samples
Apart from sharing the camera samples captured using Honor Magic 8 Pro’s 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, digital blogger Ouyang Tongxuan shared some insights from a 4-hour closed-door session on Honor’s imaging technology, attended by Honor CEO Li Jian and key teams.
He highlights Honor’s openness to feedback, which has driven rapid progress in mobile photography over the past two years. In blind tests across 50+ scenarios, Honor’s phones won over 90% of the time, especially in night telephoto shots, where they balanced highlights, shadows and colours better than rivals.
Early use of the upcoming Honor Magic8 Pro shows it delivers stunning results in all conditions, with its 200-megapixel ultra-night telephoto, AI night mode, and stage mode with strong stabilisation, making handheld 10x shots in low light sharp and detailed.
According to DCS, the Honor Magic 8 Pro is equipped with a 200-megapixel 1/1.4-inch periscope telephoto camera featuring an 85mm focal length, f/2.6 aperture, and 3.7x optical zoom, with support for 10x hybrid zoom and CIPA-grade optical stabilisation. There’s no clarity whether it features the 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 or HP9 camera sensor.
The main camera, reported elsewhere to be a 50-megapixel sensor, has a 23mm lens with an f/1.6 aperture. This imaging setup is being promoted under the nickname “Night God”, emphasising its powerful night photography performance. As per other reports, the camera setup will also include a 50-megapixel Samsung JN5 ultra-wide snapper.
