As usual in these cases, the device has not been officially announced in Europe and is therefore available only through third-party stores. It is the Chinese version but with multilingual software that includes Italian (as reported by the store). The phone comes with Google services and Play Store preinstalled and can receive OTA updates without problems.

For those who missed the latest news from China, Honor Magic 8 Pro Air was launched in its homeland in January. As the name suggests, we are dealing with a model with an ultra-thin body: we’re talking about 6.1 mm of thickness and a weight of 155 grams, with a 6.31″ OLED screen.

Wireless charging is also supported, with a power of 50W.
