Boki, 23 May 2024How to test 2D TOF and 3D TOF sensors in practice?2D is not TOF. It's simple recognition. 2D needs to flash your face with light to recognize you. 3D Tof don't need that.

Dove, 16 Mar 2024Magic 5 Pro Zoom camera is a gimmick. So useless, every photo is like a watercolour painting... moreThe 3.5 zoom is incredible but at 10x it is weak.

Magic 5 Pro Zoom camera is a gimmick. So useless, every photo is like a watercolour painting. I am so disappointed, I will never buy this crap again. If you don't need cameras, this is the best phone, other than that, the front camera is trash, 3x zoom cam is terrible, and you only have a main camera that is good, which in this price range is ridiculous!
If you need cheap phone to with honour, if you need premium, flagship device, just go with Samsung or iPhone.

After long journey with Huawei / Honor phones, it´s nice to be back on track.

I had: Honor 6, Honor 7, Huawei P10, P20 Pro and P30.

After it, i tried OnePlus 9 and Moto Edge 30 Ultra.

Now I finally grab nice price for H M5 Pro, and after first week, I can say - what a machine.

I was slightly worried about size, but no problem with it. Yes it´s slippery (Special prices were here just for blackone version, for green is more interest here). but size is absolutly ok.

Nice:
Display, design, software (like EMUI, so of course, I have to like Magic OS too), battery (wow so amazing, even if I do not use dynamic refresh rate and just get highest), nice sound, and very amazing Camera.

It´s first time after P30 photos, when I just get from me: Wow.
Very fast autofocus, nice details, nice zoom, nice colours and amazing dynamic range. Indoors photos, when dark is coming, are the most impressive I ever seen.

I compare around 30 photos from the same places with Edge 30 Ultra - and my score is clear:

26 - H M5Pro (And around 20 were absolutly demolished wins...)
2 - Edge 30 Ultra - but it was so tense...
2 - Draw

I am so happy to be back on tour if not with Huawei, at least with ex daughter´s company Honor. Same spirit with Huawei is still there, and for former fans of Huawei is not bad message.

;)

Upgraded from a s22 ultra to this and have had it for a few months now. The battery life is so much better than the s22 ultra. There are some things I've had to adjust to in magic ui but overall I've had a great experience

In my experience, the wireless charging went from 12% to 100% in 45 minutes.

That throttling is still ridiculous and I am still angry that they gave it such a good score despite being the worst phone in years in terms of throttling.
