Honor’s Magic 7 series, launched in October in China, has achieved remarkable sales figures. The smartphones became the brand’s best-selling products on their first day, creating a buzz among global users. However, recent developments may bring mixed emotions to those eagerly awaiting the series.
Honor Magic 7 Pro: Global Release Leaked, But at a Higher Price
According to industry sources, the wait for the Honor Magic 7 Pro will not be long. The smartphone is expected to debut globally on January 25, 2025. However, the main highlight is its price increase compared to its predecessor.
The Honor Magic 6 Pro was sold in Europe for €1,299. If the rumors are accurate, the upcoming Magic 7 Pro will launch at €1,399 — a €100 increase. These claims remain unofficial for now, so it’s best to wait for Honor’s confirmation.
