On March 17, Honor's new generation of wisdom flagship Honor Magic4 series was officially released in China. As another proof of Honor's scientific and technological innovation strength, honor Magic4 series has once again joined hands with a new generation of Snapdragon 8 mobile platform to achieve all-round advancement in the fields of screen, imaging, performance, and security.
The Snapdragon 8 Series mobile platform has always been synonymous with the top Android mobile experience. The honor Magic4 series is equipped with Snapdragon 8, combined with Qualcomm's in-depth tuning, fully combined with the leading technology research and development strength of the two teams, and the powerful performance and comprehensive experience of Snapdragon 8 are brought to the extreme. In terms of hardware configuration, Snapdragon 8 uses an advanced 4nm process, and the new Kryo CPU integrates the Arm Cortex X2 super core, which improves performance by up to 20% compared with the previous generation platform. The 7th generation Qualcomm AI engine includes ultra-high-performance, ultra-energy-efficient Qualcomm Hexagon processors, which are 4 times faster than the previous generation platform. In terms of GPUs that are critical to the gaming experience, the newly built Adreno GPU renders 30% faster, has 25% more energy efficiency, and has up to 60% more Vulkan gaming performance. In terms of connectivity, the Snapdragon 8 integrates the Snapdragon X65 modem and RF system and fastConnect 6900 mobile connection system. In terms of powerful hardware configuration, honor Magic4 series cooperates with the newly upgraded self-developed Turbo X technology, so that the soft and hard power of both sides can be fully combined, bringing users more smooth and smooth system operation, audio and video entertainment experience and more durable and stable running endurance, creating an unparalleled top experience.
Imaging capabilities are the touchstone that tests the insight of user needs and the comprehensive strength of software and hardware technology research and development. As a leader in mobile image technology innovation, the imaging capabilities of the Honor Magic4 series have been comprehensively upgraded in three dimensions: hardware specifications, software algorithms and innovative experience, and the Honor Magic4 to The Ultimate Edition has created the highest score of DXOMARK with a total score of 146, winning the first crown of image scoring, once again highlighting the top technological innovation strength of the Honor team. Achieving an excellent computational photography experience is inseparable from the powerful ISP and AI capabilities of mobile platforms. Snapdragon 8 supports Snapdragon Sight Snapdragon imaging technology, and the new Spectra ISP pioneers support for 18-bit triple ISPs, capturing up to 3.2 billion pixels per second, increasing the amount of dynamic range image data by 4096 times, and supporting the ultimate dynamic range, color and clarity. Snapdragon 8 also fully integrates AI technology in image algorithms for the first time, supporting ai-based real-time face recognition and AAA algorithms.
The powerful processing power brought by the Snapdragon 8 Three ISP can fully dispatch the top camera module of the Magic4 series, and combine it with the Glory Multi-Main Camera Fusion Computational Photography Technology to achieve a brighter and clearer imaging experience in scenes such as night scenes, sports and portraits. Snapdragon 8's powerful AI capabilities can be combined with Honor's self-developed HONOR Image Engine image engine to achieve innovative video shooting gameplay such as recording while shooting, recording Chinese and American shooting, and recording multiple times in view of the common pain points of user video shooting, and achieving the wisdom of user shooting experience.
Qualcomm believes that security is the foundation of all Snapdragon experiences and an important part of creating a top-notch mobile experience. With the continuous improvement of user needs, to create a top flagship mobile phone and excellent experience, not only rely on the performance of general computing units such as CPUs and GPUs, but also need to introduce more dedicated computing units to better meet the needs of different scenarios and achieve a more complete comprehensive experience. Honor and Qualcomm's concept of technology research and development are perfectly matched, and the Magic4 series adheres to the concept of user privacy protection, relying on the powerful security technology solution of the new generation of Snapdragon 8 vault level, bringing system security capabilities from the inside out, soft and hard collaboration. Snapdragon 8 took the lead in introducing a dedicated trust management engine under the Android operating system, and supported a dual trusted execution environment based on Qualcomm Hypervisor, helping the Honor Magic4 series to become one of the first smartphones to support dual TEE systems, which can protect and isolate sensitive information and achieve end-to-end user information security. In addition, Honor's many pioneering and innovative personalized security experiences are also supported by Snapdragon 8. For example, Qualcomm and honor engineering R & D team in-depth cooperation, in the face of the pain points of user call leakage, joint tuning, through low latency to achieve a two-unit collaborative sound solution, bringing users expect excellent experience.
The many experience innovations of the Honor Magic40 series reflect Honor's deep insight into user needs, a deep understanding of mobile platform technology and rich experience in polishing high-end smartphones. The joint tuning work between Qualcomm and honor teams has penetrated into all aspects of the smartphone experience and is committed to solving user pain points. In terms of games, Snapdragon 8 Adreno GPU performance has been greatly improved, while supporting Snapdragon Elite Gaming's many end-game game features, combined with Honor GPU Turbo X technology, bringing higher frame rate and lower power performance, according to the measured data in the heavy-load game "Bright Mountains", Honor Magic40 Pro average frame rate is as high as 50.58fps, peak temperature of 47.8 °C. In the multi-application concurrent scenario, the Honor Magic40 series has also achieved long-lasting and stable performance input performance through in-depth tuning of Snapdragon 8.
