HONOR has confirmed that the Magic9 series will launch in China on September 28, with a dual 200MP rear-camera setup and a new 500mm teleconverter. UAE availability and pricing have not been announced.
Honor Magic 9 Pro camera details
The launch teasers point to a 200MP main camera using a 1/1.28-inch sensor with an f/1.57 aperture, paired with a 200MP telephoto camera using a 1/1.4-inch sensor and an f/2.6 aperture. HONOR is also adding a 500mm teleconverter to the existing 200mm accessory, giving the camera system a distinctly long reach. The figures and launch date were reported by GSMArena, which linked the launch confirmation from HONOR’s Weibo account.
The phone shown in HONOR’s launch material has a large rectangular camera housing, a Moss Green finish and ARRI branding. The product image identifies the device as the Magic9 Pro Max in its fine print, while HONOR has not yet confirmed how many models will make up the full series.
