Performance
Under the hood, the Honor Magic 2 is powered by the Kirin 980 chipset. Built on a 7nm process, the processor boasts an octa-core arrangement, providing robust performance capable of handling demanding tasks and multitasking efficiently. Coupled with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, depending on the variant, the phone ensures smooth operation of applications and an overall snappy user experience. The inclusion of the Mali-G76 MP10 GPU enhances graphic rendering, making it suitable for gaming enthusiasts. Running on Android 9.0 Pie with EMUI 9 or Magic UI 2, the user interface is customizable and smooth, though it might bear an initial learning curve for those unfamiliar with Honor's UI ecosystem.
