DADDY FUEL Honor Magic4 Pro

Put an iphone 13, a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, a Google Pixel 6 and Honor’s new Magic4 Pro in a wireless charging race, and one of them would be propped up at the finish line sending out celebratory Whatsapp messages before the rest had even got their induction coils in gear. And yep, it’d be the Honor.

While its 4600mah battery is far from the largest around, its support for 100W charging – both wired and wireless – means it’ll hit 100% in just 30 minutes, or 60% in half that. Chances are you’ll need it, because with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor (also rather fast), 6.81in 2848x1312 OLED screen with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, you’ll probably struggle to put it down.

That’s not to mention the camera setup, which consists of a 50MP wide snapper, a 50MP ultrawide, a 64MP telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom, and a 12MP selfie-cam on the front. Throw in 10-bit 4K HDR video recording at 60fps, plus 5G data and IP68 waterproofing, and you’ve got one of the most advanced smartphones we’ve seen so far this year. And that’s Magic.

As hot as… the flushed faces of the losers in a smartphone charging race
