Honor’s OnePlus 13 rival features more AI than HAL 9000. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Christmas has been and gone, but January is once again proving to be the most wonderful time of the year for Android phone fans. Following the launch of the OnePlus 13 series last week, Honor has debuted its own flagship offering for 2025 – the Honor Magic 7 Pro – on the international stage.

Boasting a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a supersized 5,270mAh silicon-carbon battery, and an eye-friendly 6.8-inch display, the Magic 7 Pro sports hardware specs to rival the best Android phones on the market right now (OnePlus 13 included). However, as promised, it's Honor’s suite of decidedly unique software features that really catch the eye this year.

Among the most interesting is Deepfake Detection, an on-device security tool that uses AI to scan for facial trickery during video calls. Honor teased the innovative new feature last year, and it finally ships with the Magic 7 Pro alongside numerous other “human-centric” AI tools, including AI Translation, Real-time Transcript, and Magic Portal 2.0.

The Magic 7 Pro’s cameras have been decked out with some neat AI wizardry, too. The snappers themselves comprise a 50MP wide lens (f/1.4-2.0, 23mm), a 50MP ultra-wide lens (f/2.0, 12mm), and a 200MP periscope telephoto lens (f/2.6, 69mm), but Honor’s proprietary AI Image Engine brings various AI-powered tricks to each one.
