Both displays support a 120Hz LTPO refresh rate, Dolby Vision, HDR Vivid, and stylus input, with a peak brightness reaching 5,000 nits.

    Hardware

    Internally, the Honor Magic V3 is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, paired with 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. It houses a 5,150mAh battery that supports 66W wired fast charging and 50W wireless fast charging. The device runs MagicOS 8, based on Android 14 OS, straight out of the box. It also includes AI capabilities, parallel space, and smart private call features.

    Camera

    The Magic V3 is equipped with Honor’s Falcon Camera system, comprising a 50MP main sensor with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), a 40MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens that supports 100x digital zoom alongside OIS. For selfies and video calls, there are 20MP cameras on both the internal and external screens.
