"These days, it's mostly the Vivo X300 Pro I miss when I'm testing something else, a phone whose camera remains unmatched. Some phones may best it on battery life, or have smoother software, but there's always a moment when I'm shooting a portrait, or framing a dimly lit photo for my food blog, that I think: "The Vivo would have handled this better.""
"The Magic 8 Pro is Honor's newest flagship phone, launched in China in October but only getting its European release now. At £1,099.99 (around $1,500) it's meant to rival the likes of the iPhone 17 Pro Max and Galaxy S25 Ultra, along with similar flagships from Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo. Honor has long pitched its hero devices as photographic powerhouses, the same strategy that brought its former parent company Huawei success,"
After a month of testing, the Honor Magic 8 Pro rarely prompts desire for another phone; its camera handles portraits and dimly lit scenes with strong consistency. The handset launches in Europe at £1,099.99 (about $1,500) after an October China debut and targets flagship competitors such as the iPhone 17 Pro Max and Galaxy S25 Ultra. Honor emphasizes photographic performance, following the strategy that previously drove Huawei's success. Historically producing capable cameras but not top-ranked results, Honor now delivers a device noticeably closer to best-in-class that can outshoot many current flagship handsets.
