Honor Magic 2 review | Trusted Reviews

Honor Magic 2 review, features, price and early review: Honor's latest China-only flagship have some fancy features. But do they all work?

Solid battery life ; Bold notch-free screen ; Powerful

Finicky fingerprint scanner ; No headphone jack ; Packed full of unwanted software

A clever alternative to a phone with a notch, but not the best option at the price.

Honor Magic 2

Want a slider phone with six cameras, 45W super charging, a Kirin 980 processor, and an in-display fingerprint scanner? You might want the Honor Magic 2 - but you'll have to get one from China.

Honor Magic 2 review: A nostalgic sliding phone with ultra-modern internals – and no notch

The Magic 2's clever sliding mechanism eliminates the display notch

Retro sliding mechanism ; Superb performance ; Impressive battery life

No official UK supplier ; No water-resistance, nor headphone jack ; Uninspiring camera

The Honor Magic 2 smartphone is a break from the norm. Its design is at once both innovative and nostalgic, cleverly eliminating the notch as it rolls back the years. It’s one of the fastest, longest-lasting Android phones of 2018, and it has a...

Honor Magic 2 review

Display packed ; Decent camera setup

A little heavy ; No headphone jack ; Gaming performance not as good as the OnePlus 6T’s

The Magic 2 is quirky but it's not for everyone, and the software is a pain, but it shows you what a notch-free future looks like

Huawei's Honor Magic 2 gets slide-out screen and six cameras

It's only available in China (for now) but it will have face unlock and fast charging.

Honor Magic 2 Smartphone Review

The Magic Phone. Unfortunately, Honor does not officially sell or distribute the Honor 2 in Europe. Officially, Honor claims that the intelligence built into the Magic 2 was designed to make life easier for the Chinese, and it would not work at all in...

full-view display ; triple-camera setup ; plenty of storage ; plenty of RAM ; dual SIM, dual VoLTE ; modern, sleek design

not officially available outside of China ; lacks Play Store and international keyboard layouts ex-factory ; special features unavailable outside of China ; storage not expandable ; heavy

No doubt, Honor’s Magic 2 is a very special smartphone. Its true full view display is going to please anybody who prefers a bezel-less display but dreads the existence of a notch despite the fact that these design abominations are getting smaller and...

Honor Magic 2 Review: enchanting but mildly disappointing

The quest for “edge to edge” bezel-less screens have forced smartphone makers to search for solutions to a problem of their own making. Unless you completely ignore it the way Samsung does (at least for now), there is no escaping the notch, a.k.a. the...

Gorgeous all-screen display ; High-end flagship performance ; Impressive battery life ; Reliable cameras ; Addictive fidget toy

No water resistance, 3.5mm jack, wireless charging ; Bloated default experience ; Limited options for slider trigger
