Honor phone is consider all around phone , i would rate it more to working , stable + balance phone  , especially on the Eco-system , the honor MagicRing should be the best eco-system among all the android competitor , and the Honor AI also doing well too.
For vivo & oppo , they have extender lens kit which can make u zoom gao gao on concert / park / F1 and more , so they stil nail the edge when come to photography , if photography is your first priority , then this is your choice.

But when back to normal consumer usage , it really more more more than enough , because not everyone mou itu zoom gao gao lenses right.
So the Question have to answer by yourself , do u need high usage on photography? Or u are a 50% feature of the phone & 50% on photo person , then i think u cant go wrong with honor. It's kind of very balance phone.

- Good SOC 8E gen5
- Bigger battery capacity
- Better Eco-system
- 3D face unlock
- Last but not least , honor is always doing better on the eye protection, eye care display.

for sure... too bad they nerfed the camera a bit... now waiting for more cam comparison...

they nerf the telephoto camera so that got more space to fit in larger battery.

now just wait for the malaysia price. if priced like stupid realme gt8 pro, then ppl rather top up go for vivo x300, senheng price not bad.

Don't be surprise if the launch prices is ass, those making the pricing decisions most of them smoke weed one laugh.gif

they set it high so that telco can con postpaid + device plan users.

also ppl rather to buy old model when new model comes out.

after old model finish clear stock then baru give a lot of discount for new model.

electronic gadgets all use this kind shit pricing strategy now.

From the reviewer from china , Honor MagicOS is the one that not changing much on performance and battery life after a year of update.

macam vivo and oppo , some will discuss about the battery life degrade after major update , or camera degrade after some update , but rarely heard MagicOS have this kind of problem , so i always rate that Honor magicOS is like huawei (actually they memang same company  laugh.gif ) , very stable , less surprise mean less problem.

In my china wechat group , huawei & honor actually they rate as more "mature" (uncle style) phone , because it's too stable, so young ppl actually more toward to freshness feeling like the vivo & oppo , while after they getting age , will more toward to huawei & honor and looking for more stable usage.

So just choose which type of people are you , and buy the most suitable phone for you.

for battery charging habit, just maintain charge don't let it below 15%.

for upper limit, u want it to be 90% 95% 100% also not a problem.

Nop bro , not about battery health , is the battery life become like negative optimization (负优化).
For example

Let say when u are on your day 1 new phone with OriginOS 4 , u can get SOT 7 hour , but after some minor update , it become 6.5 SOT only , then come a major update to OriginOS6 , then SOT become 5-6 hour only , then after few minor update , the SOT become normal back to 6.5 SOT , then few more update then become worse back to 5hour SOT ,very unstable , unlike MagicOS , every update wont give u better or bad feeling , it just feel like u using the same phone from the day 1 to day 365.
MagicOS or huawei phone now had the less negative optimization if compared to other brand i would say , maybe there are some cases , but rarely can heard about bad thing on MagicOS.
*
no la...19:38 also mentioned no negative optimization.

it's all about the background app that draining battery.
sometimes u just need to restart phone like the video said.

and "negative optimization" sometimes is a bug, clear cache might fix it.
even app like lazada and shopee, sometimes also need to clear cache after update to fix bug.
last time kan ppl always recommend factory reset after big major os update.
now less hear it because all os getting better, but of course can't eliminate there will be chance bug happens la.

battery life got co-relation with battery health, regardless apple or android.

certain model will trigger lock battery capacity by limiting voltage output after certain charging cycles, china call it 降压锁容
this is how iOS do it: https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV13W421c7FV/
not sure how android do it.

good charging habit maintain your battery health better.

why need to stay above 15%?
because li-ion battery is 3.7V rated, if below 15% then it can't output constant 3.7V voltage already.

why some 100% drop to 99% takes so long time?
because 100% at 4.2V, drop till 99% at 4.15V takes quite lot of times.

why must use good quality charger?
because need voltage detection at least ±1% precision, 4.2V as 100% fully charged, overcharged will hurt battery.

so always maintain battery around 15%-100% (once 100% just unplug to stop continuing trickle charge)
if you worry about the trickle charge to 100% will be counted as more charging cycles, but also worry charge until 85% not enough juice for daily usage,
choose the balance method like Sony, their battery protection mode around 93%, means charge until around 4.1V.
but so far nowadays android phone with fast charging tech, many ppl no worry on this dah.
