Last week we asked you what you thought of the Honor Magic 7 series – now the results are in and they’re not too surprising. Mainly, the Pro model came out on top, while the cheaper but less capable Lite model didn’t get as much attention.

The Honor Magic 7 Pro proved to be quite popular in the polls, but that is not perfect. Many commentators say it’s not a big enough upgrade from the Magic 6 Pro (and we came to the same conclusion in our review). The new telephoto camera failed to wow us and the European model got a smaller battery for some reason. Still, the phone gets almost everything right with a couple of unique features to make it stand out (like the face scanner on the front).

The Honor Magic 7 RSR Porsche design also attracted attention, but that’s mostly in the way that sports cars do – people love to gawk at these and they raise the company’s profile, but most probably prefer the brand’s more proper models. Will buy. ,

The Honor Magic 7 Lite is more of a mid-ranger, so clearly not suitable for those looking for a new flagship. The chipset and 5MP ultra-wide camera aren’t great, but with prices dropping quickly in some markets, the Lite will find its own fans.

We’re not done, there’s actually a fourth member we need to talk about – the vanilla Honor Magic 7. For whatever reason, Honor chose not to bring it with the Pro, RSR and Lite. Which may have been a mistake, given the number of comments from people who would have picked it up over Pro if they had that option.

The vanilla model omits the 200mp telephoto module (it has a 50MP 68mm tele camera) and the face scanner (leaving only a small punch hole for the 50MP selfie camera). But it still packs the Snapdragon 8 Elite and a high-quality LTPO OLED display. Its design is overall similar to the Pro, although the 5,650mAh Si/C battery would probably have had a lower capacity had it launched in Europe. Still, though, the Pro’s price was one of the most common complaints against it and having a vanilla version would have been a great way to introduce a cheaper model, but still a flagship (unlike the Lite).
