The Honor Magic 7 series comes with a lot of bells and whistles, global release expected early next year
The next big thing in tech showed its pretty face in China today, and boy oh boy does it scream innovation. While other brands exploit their former glory and loyal fanbase, Chinese smartphone companies try to win market share through aggressive development.
The brand in question is Honor, and the company has just unveiled its next flagship series, the Honor Magic 7 in China. You can talk all you want about spy conspiracies and government ties, but there’s a reason why the Magic 6 Pro is still on top of our all-time Best Android Phones article.
