The company has been teasing the Honor Magic7 Pro, showing off its design in a short video and talking about NPU game rendering and a new AI assistant that will be part of MagicOS 9.0. And, of course, the company took the opportunity to show off the phone on stage in Hawaii (where the Snapdragon Summit is held each year), as you can see above.
The Honor Magic7 series will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. Its beefy NPU will power the on-device AI assistant (named YOYO), help improve gaming performance and more.
