A fitting finale for #techtober?
Right before October comes to an end, Honor officially joins the slider trend with the Honor Magic 2. Making their offering unique is its six camera setup consisting of three front cameras and three rear cameras.
Going to the cameras, the rear cameras consist of a 16-megapixel f/1.8 main snapper, 24-megapixel f/1.8 monochrome camera, and 16-megapixel f/2.2 ultra-wide-angle camera. As for the front, you get a 16-megapixel f/2.0 camera accompanied by two 2-megapixel f/2.4 depth sensors.
Speaking of the sliding mechanism, the Honor Magic 2 comes with an IPX2 rating, which means it is safe against dripping water for 10 minutes. Other unique features include an in-display fingerprint scanner, 3D face unlock, dual-band GPS, and 40W Magic Charge.
