The Honor Magic 7 series smartphones are officially launching globally. This announcement, made by Honor’s global PR head Bhavya Siddappa on X, was expected, as Honor has traditionally launched its Magic flagship phones worldwide.
Pre-installed with Android 15, the phones run MagicOS 9.0, Honor’s latest Android skin with AI features. The availability of these AI features in the global market remains to be seen.
During the event, Honor also revealed the design of the Porsche Design Honor Magic 7 RSR, which will launch globally in December. However, it is unclear whether this launch date applies to both China and global markets.
While an exact date for the global launch hasn’t been announced, it’s likely to happen in the first quarter of 2025. Honor typically releases its flagship devices globally a few months after their initial launch in China. Given that the Magic 7 series was just announced in China, a global launch in early 2025 seems plausible. This timeframe would also allow Honor to capitalize on the momentum generated by the holiday season and compete effectively in the global market.
The global launch of the Honor Magic 7 series is poised to significantly impact the smartphone market. The Magic 7 and Magic 7 Pro, with their impressive specs and features, are strong contenders in the high-end smartphone segment. The Porsche Design Honor Magic 7 RSR adds a touch of luxury and exclusivity to the lineup, further elevating Honor’s brand image. It will be interesting to see how these devices are received in the global market and how they compete with other flagship smartphones.
