So, have you seen the great cameras on the Honor Magic4 but wished the company would make a smaller flagship this year? Wish granted! While you should have been more specific with your wish, the Honor Magic5 is smaller but just about right.

Last year’s Magic4 was almost exactly the same size as its Pro sibling. This year’s Magic5 has a 0.08-inch smaller screen, and the phone itself is shorter, narrower, and about a millimeter thinner. So while it’s technically smaller, it’s hard to quantify the difference even when holding both the Vanilla and Pro phones.

One thing you’ll notice is that the Magic5 is significantly lighter – 28g less at nearly the same size makes a tangible difference. It’s also lighter than last year’s Magic4, although some things have been lost.

For starters, the 2022 model had dust and water resistance with an IP54 rating. The 2023 model is not officially rated for any strength. Now, IP54 didn’t suit a £900 phone if you ask us, but no rating at the same price is a disappointment. Yes, the Honor Magic5 (with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage) launches at €900.
