Beijing, October 14 (Daily Kiran): Ahead of the official launch of the Honor Magic8 and Magic8 Pro on October 15, Honor has named Nicholas Tse as its Future Technology Experience Officer. To mark the announcement, the company released a promotional image showing the Hong Kong star holding the upcoming Magic8 Pro, while also teasing its superior night photography performance compared to the iPhone 17 Pro.

Nicholas Tse — a renowned actor, singer, songwriter, martial artist, entrepreneur, and TV chef — is known for his constant reinvention across multiple creative fields. Honor said Tse’s journey of “identity evolution” mirrors the brand’s philosophy of continuous innovation and transformation.
This message ties into the AI-driven “self-evolution” concept behind the Magic8 series, where the smartphone’s hardware works in tandem with on-device AI to learn user behavior, anticipate needs, and optimize performance over time.
Honor also released a promo video in which it compares the Magic8 Pro with the iPhone 17 Pro at high altitude. They both capture night scenes from a helicopter, and do you care to guess which device produces the better shots? Of course it’s the Magic8 Pro – this is an Honor-made video, after all.
The phone is expected to sport a 50 MP main camera, a 50 MP ultrawide, and a 200 MP periscope telephoto with 85mm focal length, f/2.6 aperture, and a 1/1.4″ type sensor. This was teased in some more detail a few days ago.

The upcoming Magic8 Pro has already generated excitement for its AI-enhanced imaging system, particularly its night photography capabilities. In recent teasers, Honor has positioned the Magic8 Pro as a direct rival to the iPhone 17 Pro, claiming it delivers clearer, more dynamic results in low-light conditions.
With Nicholas Tse as its new ambassador and an AI-focused narrative, Honor appears to be setting the stage for a major global statement with the Magic8 lineup. All eyes are now on the brand’s October 15 event, where the full details will finally be revealed.
