The smartphone platform uses the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor with Adreno 750 graphics. It is complemented by 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal UFS 4.0 memory. Wireless modules include Wi-Fi 7, NFC, Bluetooth 5.3 with LDAC, and APTX HD. In addition, there is an infrared sensor for using a smartphone as a remote control for compatible equipment. GPS/AGPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo satellite systems are supported for navigation.

The Magic6 Pro runs on Android 14, with the MagicOS 8.0 interface on top of it. Google services are present in the device, so it can be stated that the formal separation from Huawei allowed Honor to circumvent the sanctions imposed on the parent company by the United States.

Support for AI functions is also included. Magic6 Pro will feature Meta’s built-in Llama 2 artificial intelligence model and will be able to answer questions, generate and read text without access to the Internet.
