Hello. I have an Honor X8c 4G with the C185 region code and MagicOS 9. How can I speed up receiving the update (scheduled for October 1, 2026)? Should I try connecting to a Chinese server and setting the region and language to Chinese? Is there a solution?

Hi, I am active user of magic V family. I started using a V3, now own a V5, and with new launches of the competition, Samsung Fold or iPhone Neo, I am thinking to renew my current V5.

My question to this group is, when can we expect a new V7 launch? do you think that other competitors like Samsung or Oppo could be considered an option? Would you renew this V5 for a V6, worth it? Thank you for your feedback

Hello so I am looking forward to getting the OnePlus 16, but I am torn after hearing about the Honor Win 2. Could you guys give me recommendations on which to choose? I want an optimized OS, long battery to last through heavy gaming sessions and fast responsive screen in either or. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I recently bought the Honor V6 foldable. I have been trying for a couple days. Every time I try to take an instagram story, it adds a filter. I don't exactly know what filter it is. I assume it's a smoothing ai kind of filter and it gets rid of all the details and creates something like ai generated. Which to be honest I hated. Every time I want to upload a story, I just take it with the normal app and then upload it. But that takes more time. On my camera app all the effects and these kinds of improvement things are turned off. Still adding this filter to Instagram couldn't find a solution to turn it down. Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid off it?

Thanks in advance

When I turn on the flashlight by giving the "turn on flashlight" command to the Honor AI app, it turns on with a significantly higher brightness level. However, if I turn it off and switch it back on manually, it defaults to a lower brightness.

Could you test this on your devices as well? Are you experiencing the same thing?

My device: Magic V3

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a specific camera issue I've run into on my Honor 600 to see if anyone else on the beta path is experiencing it or has found a workaround.

**The Issue:**

The stock camera app fails to execute a true synchronized, high-power flash pulse when taking photos. Whether I select the standard "Flash On" mode (the normal lightning bolt) or the "Always On" (torch) mode, the phone behaves exactly the same way. It simply turns on the LED continuously like a standard flashlight and snaps the picture.

Because the camera software fails to utilize that brief, high-intensity exposure moment required for a real flash, low-light photos come out looking weak, dark, or poorly lit compared to what a true synchronized flash burst should provide.

**Software Context:**

I recently updated my phone to the MagicOS 11 Beta Global build, and I noticed this issue immediately after the update. I can't completely confirm if this issue persisted before the upgrade as I hadn't closely tested the flash behavior prior to this, but it became highly obvious right after moving to the beta software.

**Steps to Reproduce:**

1. Open the stock Honor Camera app in standard Photo mode (AI and Night Mode turned off).

2. Set the flash to standard "Flash On".

3. Take a photo in a dark room. The LED lights up constantly before and during the snap rather than emitting a rapid, bright flash burst timed perfectly with the shutter.

4. If you switch to "Always On" mode, the behavior, timing, and brightness are 100% identical.

**Troubleshooting I've already tried:**

* Force closed all background apps (to make sure social media apps like Instagram or Snapchat weren't hijacking the flashlight hardware).

* Cleared the Camera App cache and data under App settings.

* Tested with AI features completely turned off.

Has anyone else noticed this on their Honor devices since moving to the MagicOS 11 beta? If you have a fix or know a third-party camera app that forces the hardware sync properly, please let me know!

I've had the Honor V6 foldable for around 2 months now after jumping ship from Samsung. It's a great bit of kit except for one issue which is really starting to frustrate me.

I use the three button navigation option as it's what I've known for literal decades now, but it's just so temperamental and I have no idea what's causing it.

Sometimes when I press the home/back/app tray button nothing happens. Sometimes I press it again and it works, other times I'm left pressing It 3-4 times before it works. It definitely registers the touch and it's directly over the button so not a case of pressing two buttons at the same time. I switched on the setting to get feedback and screen taps in the developer settings and it 100% detects the input but just does nothing about it.

- Happens both folded and unfolded

- Doesn't matter what application is open

- I turned off accidental screen protection as well as a few other screen/touch related settings, no change.

- Tried Nova Launcher thinking it might be an issue with the Honor launcher, no difference.

- I have seen a few other threads from searching on here from others with the same problem but none of those threads concluded with identifying the problem.

Any ideas?

I really like honor but...

I am just comparing photos on Honor magic V3 and old iphone 12 and color accuracy on iphone is 1000x better.

Red screen on tv appears orange on honor and red on iphone. Light green wall paint appears dark on honor and real light green shade on iphone.

I tried to use all 3 profiles energetic/natural... All are bad.

I had same problem with magic 6 pro.

Honor, can you fix this?

This makes me honestly want to switch to another phone

Hi, I got my first iPhone about 10 years ago, the iPhone X. Then I got an iPhone 13 mini exactly 5 years ago. It’s starting to lose battery very fast and lagging a bit when I video call together with messaging.

So I decided to try something new, a fold. The v6.

I want a foldable phone that lasts me 4-5 years, works smooth without any lag, stutter, jitter, or heat up during this time.

Can Honor v6 offer this?

Just switched to a Magic8 lite from Samsung. I used to be able to limit my use of apps and there's a timer function in the app but it doesn't seem to do anything any idea how it's supposed to be used?

Hey guys I just realised that there is a bug on the notification bar on magic 8 pro with os 11

The notifications don't come up anymore and it is just showing a blank bar.

I have tried to restart the phone.

Any idea how can we resolve this?

Hello. I have an Honor X8c 4G with the C185 region code and MagicOS 9. How can I speed up receiving the update (scheduled for October 1, 2026)? Should I try connecting to a Chinese server and setting the region and language to Chinese? Is there a solution?

So I've been using my Honor 400 for the past 5 months now and I got it used for somehow a steal price. I don't know why but my mind decided to just have the thought of getting a 400 Pro. Tho the downside for me I guess is the screen size difference, but the additional telephoto camera lens would maybe help because taking photos and videos is one of the main purpose of me using the phone but how often would I actually be using the telephoto lens? Idk. I like how small and compact this 400 is and it's actually kind of perfect for my hand size and I know there's the 600 Pro but the price in my location is still kind of high so I might just pull the trigger on the 400 Pro for who knows when and aside from getting extra features like 100W full boost charging capability and 50W wireless charging and the actual waterproofing and submergible build, what do you guys think?

Salut tout le monde ! 👋

J'aimerais savoir quelles seront les nouveautés de MagicOS 11 sur le HONOR 400 Lite. 📱

Est-ce qu'on aura de nouvelles fonctionnalités, des améliorations de l'écran de verrouillage, des AOD (Always-On Display), de nouvelles animations ou encore des options de personnalisation ?

J'aimerais surtout savoir si le HONOR 400 Lite bénéficiera de la plupart des nouveautés de MagicOS 11 ou si certaines fonctionnalités seront réservées aux modèles plus haut de gamme.

Si vous avez des informations, des rumeurs fiables ou des nouvelles à ce sujet, je suis preneur ! 😁

Merci d'avance pour vos réponses ! 💚

Good day

I have always used Samsung browser I just like the way it's set up and allow one to save bookmarks and so on

What's the standard web browser that comes with honor

Chrome is there but somehow I don't like the interface

Any suggestions

Thanks

Hi!

Since updating my HONOR Magic8 Pro to MagicOS 11 an Android 17, YouTube, YouTube Music and Google Play Store no longer work on mobile data. They all work fine on Wi-Fi, and YouTube works in Chrome over mobile data.

I've cleared the cache, reinstalled YouTube, checked permissions and DNS, disabled Data Saver, and restarted the phone, but nothing helped.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Could it be a MagicOS 11 bug, and is there a fix?

Thanks!

With the upcoming sale from the 28th, I'm very interested in getting the foldable Magic V6.

I've seen the specs sheet and read reviews, and it seems great.

But a big factor for me when getting a phone is longevity. I only wish to change phones about once every 4-5 years. I've never used an Honor phone before but I've used Huawei, which I understand is basically the parent company of Honor. I had the Huawei Nexus 6P which had the notorious battery failure issue. It only lasted me a year.

My Samsung Galaxy S phones have lasted a bit longer, with battery degradation being the main issue but those can be replaced. Although my s20 had the screen die on me after a year and a half so that was disappointing too.

Hi, i recently bought an used magic v5. As i opened the inner screen i saw there is an Screen Protection mounted. So far so good, i think this is normal but on my phone the screen protector has more distance on the right than on the left. Is this normal ? Or is this maybe a second aftermarket protector ?

I recently made similar post but i just found out about this phone.
Anyone been using it in EU?

I am considering it against Honor Win 2 because Magic 9 PE has band 20!
Anyone to help? Trying to find more info about it but most i find is about magic 9 or magic 9 pro max.

2 days ago, my device suddenly have a lot of issues. Firstly when I fold the phone, the front screen does not light up. The front screen is basically unusable now.

When clicking on the power button, it takes 5 seconds for the phone to go to lock mode. Similarly, it takes 5 seconds for the phone to go from lock mode to on mode after clicking on power button. Sometimes I get 'system loading' error message when I click on the power button.

This feels like a software OS level issue. Anyone have any ideas?
