EDITORIAL: As last year, Honor brought us a customized (luxury) version of it's top phone. The Magic 7 RSR Porsche Design is an amazing phone in every regard, beaten only by phons with best cameras. Recommended, if you can find it in your market.

EDITORIAL: Xiaomi got it right with this outstanding phone. The processor, excellent battery life and charging, top screen, main camera and OS update support. It is a mystery why there is no AF on the selfie (again), no SDmemory expansion and no desktop replacement functionality. This is a China market exclusive.

CONs
this is a China-only phone, selfie with no OIS or even AF, lack of expandable SDmemory storage and a lack of desktop replacement software (updated Mar 26, 2025)
