About the Honor Magic5 Pro
The Honor Magic5 Pro was Honor's flagship contender when it launched in early 2023, and it made a strong case as one of the best camera phones of that year. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset remains powerful enough for any task, delivering flagship-grade performance in apps, gaming, and multitasking. The triple camera system is a genuine strength: three 50MP sensors covering main, ultrawide, and telephoto duties, producing consistently excellent results across all focal lengths. The 6.81-inch LTPO OLED display is a beauty, with a sharp 2848x1312 resolution, 120Hz adaptive refresh, and 1,800-nit peak brightness for excellent outdoor visibility. IP68 water resistance, wireless charging at 50W, and reverse wireless charging round out a comprehensive feature set. The 5,100mAh battery lasts a full day, and 66W wired charging gets you back to full quickly. At today's reduced prices, the Magic5 Pro delivers flagship camera performance, a stunning display, and genuine water resistance at well below current flagship costs. The trade-off is ageing MagicUI 7.1 software, which lacks the polish and update longevity of newer Honor devices.

Honor Magic5 Pro Specifications
Spec Scores
£700-£999 Phones · 82 phones
- Snapdragon 8 Gen 2
- Octa-core (1x3.2 GHz Cortex-X3 & 2x2.8 GHz Cortex-A715 & 2x2.8 GHz Cortex-A710 & 3x2.0 GHz Cortex-A510)
Based on calibrated CPU benchmark rankings (60%) and GFXBench GPU scores (40%). Apple chipsets included via editorial calibration since AnTuTu under-represents Apple's architecture.
- 6.81 inches
- 1312 x 2848 pixels
- LTPO, 120Hz, 1800 nits peak
Based on panel type (LTPO is the modern flagship gold standard), resolution, refresh rate, peak brightness, screen size, and HDR10+ / Dolby Vision support. Marketing peak-brightness claims are capped at 3500 nits to prevent inflation.
Lab-measured by DXOMARK (152 on their scale). The measured result replaces our spec-sheet estimate for this category.
- Single camera setup
- 50 MP main camera
- 4K video recording
Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality. Where DXOMARK has lab-tested the phone, its measured score replaces this estimate.
- 12 MP front camera
- 4K selfie video
Based on the image-processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra and Honor Magic lead on computational processing), sensor resolution in tiers rather than raw megapixels, autofocus, aperture and max selfie-video resolution. Calibrated against DXOMARK's selfie protocol.
- 5,100 mAh
- 66W wired
Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
