Honor Magic 8 series, including the vanilla Magic 8 and Magic 8 Pro, was unveiled in China on October 15. Now, the company appears to be preparing to launch its flagship lineup in Europe and other global markets. The tech firm will reportedly launch the Honor Magic 8 Pro with smaller batteries outside China. Moreover, the European and global models might not feature 120W wired fast charging support, as seen on its Chinese counterpart. However, it might be powered by the same flagship 3nm octa core Snapdragon chipset.

Honor Magic 8 Pro Might Ship With a Smaller Battery in Europe

GSMArena reports that the Honor Magic 8 Pro will be launched in Europe with a 6,270mAh battery, which would be significantly smaller than its Chinese and global counterparts. Globally, the phone is expected to debut with a 7,100mAh battery, which would also be smaller than the Chinese variant's 7,200mAh silicon-carbon battery. The publication spotted the information in the About section of the phone's settings.

On top of this, the Honor Magic 8 Pro might not support 120W wired fast charging. In Europe and other global markets, the phone might only feature 100W wired fast charging support. Meanwhile, the two variants might offer 80W wireless charging, the same as the Chinese model. Other specifications of the handset are yet to be revealed by the company. Moreover, the reason behind the change in battery capacity and wired charging speed is not known.
