Earlier today (14th September 2021), Honor officially announced that it would be hosting a new launch event later this month. On September 22, the company would hold the Magic3 series Imaging Technology conference in China.

While the Chinese tech giant has revealed the date of the conference, it has yet to reveal any finer details regarding the event. Although, in an official Weibo post (a Chinese microblogging website) the brand stated that its Magic3 series was quite well received, especially in regards to its camera capabilities. And now, the company is apparently looking to further improve on this aspect of the lineup. In the Weibo post’s caption, Honor mentioned the word “communicate” for the lenses and even shared an image poster as well. It did not offer any specifics but it does hint at a deeper level integration of software and hardware to offer an improved camera experience.

Furthermore, the company is also expected to unveil new camera features for the Magic3 series, which could include AI video based algorithms or film industry grade video processing. On the other hand, it could simply bring a notable software update that bumps the camera performance overall. Interestingly, the online post from Honor also mentioned the upcoming iPhone 13 series launch and stated that Apple is a notable contender in the domestic and global market.

CEO Zhao Ming even added in an interview that this allows for an unlimited possibilities for improvement. These improvements can be done through updates to hardware lens calculations and photographic algorithms. We don’t have a lot of information to go on at the moment, so stay tuned for more updates.

Honor Magic 3 series Specifications(Expected)

An Honor Magic 3 series phone recently appeared on Geekbench with model number HONOR ELZ-AN10. It is believed to be the vanilla Magic 3 smartphone. The listing revealed that the device scored 3,556 single-core points and 10,257 multi-core points on the Geekbench 4.

These scores were possible, thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset. It was paired with 8GB of RAM, which we are expecting to be a base configuration.

Moreover, the Honor Magic 3 Pro with model number ELZ-AN20 arrived on the AnTuTu benchmarking portal. It revealed that the phone has 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. The device scored 749,223 points on the AnTuTu benchmarks.

Although the other specs of the series are scarce, we do know that the phones will feature a large OLED panel with curved edges. According to a tipster, the Magic 3 prototype features a 6.76-inch display panel with 2772 x 1344 pixels resolution. The series is expected to have multiple camera sensors at the rear. But, the exact megapixel numbers are unknown.

Nonetheless, the series is launching next week and until then we expect to see some more rumors about the smartphones.

As per multiple teasers released by the brand so far, the HONOR Magic3 series will come with a giant camera module, which could be either circular or squircle. The exact rear design of the phones is a mystery as of now. But we know that the front will include a dual punch-hole display.

It is said that these smartphones will be identical to the HUAWEI Mate40 series but with Qualcomm chipsets. However, we think the design will be slightly different even if the handsets come with a circular camera design on their back.

Further, their exact specifications are also known at the moment. Different sources mention different specs. As per official information, at least one of the models will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888+ SoC.

Just like the HONOR 50 series, these phones will likely run Android 11 with support for GMS (Google Mobile Services). Since the launch event is labeled as ‘global’, the devices should be available outside mainland China as well.

As per rumors, the HONOR Magic3 series will comprise the following four smartphones.

HONOR Magic3
HONOR Magic3 Pro
HONOR Magic3 Pro+
HONOR Magic3 SE

Honor Magic 3 series global launch set for August 12

Honor has a global event scheduled for August 12, and while it didn’t say what it will be unveiling, we are expecting the launch of the Honor Magic3 phone. Today, the manufacturer has confirmed that the Magic3 series will indeed launch on that day.

A tweet by the Honor Global Twitter account has revealed that the Honor Magic3 Series 5G will be announced at the global event on August 12. Seeing as it used the word “series”, we should expect more than one model will be unveiled at the online event.

Earlier leaks have revealed that there will be more than one Magic phone this year including a foldable too. Several Chinese leakers have revealed that there are three models in the Magic3 series. The reliable leaker that goes by @RODENT950 on Twitter also disclosed in a tweet earlier this week that there are three models in the Magic3 series with model numbers ELZ-AN00, ELZ-AN10, ELZ-AN20, so we should expect a standard version as well as pro and pro+ variants. We believe the foldable Honor Magic isn’t among the aforementioned devices.

All three phones will be powered by the Snapdragon 888 Plus according to an official statement by Qualcomm last month.

The teaser image shows the main camera of one of the Honor Magic3 models, and while it is a close-up image, it does appear it will take up significant space on the device which means it is a large sensor.
