A dimmer tint of magic audible In a world where magic exists, it is not always grand and vibrant. There are moments when magic takes on a different form, a dimmer tint that is barely audible. This kind of magic may not catch the attention of many, but it is still present and can be just as powerful. The dimmer tint of magic audible is subtle and understated. It is not flashy or showy, but rather whispers quietly in the background. It can be felt in the gentle rustling of leaves in the wind, the soft babble of a brook, or the hushed murmur of a crowd.

As the "180 megapixel 68mm camera" seems to be a crop from a 180 megapixel 62mm camera, I wondered why they chose 68mm. I think I have an explanation: The 27mm crop from the 50 megapixel 23mm camera will give you approximately 9.1 megapix.

Apparently, the field of view of the periscope camera is 62mm in its 201 megapixel mode. I have seen a sample image with 62mm f/2.6 and I also just found this interesting post: twitter.com/ML_Autofocus/status/1745435443376841078?t=tXMxUe7P7AYV6PfPNyU.

By the way, the specs on Honor's website indicate that you can take 201 megapixel photos.

HONOR Magic 6 Pro launched with a crazy 180MP periscope camera

We’ve heard murmurings for a while now that HONOR could be working on crazy periscope camera technology. Now, the company has launched the HONOR Magic 6 series in China, and the Pro variant indeed looks like a beast of a camera phone.

The Magic 6 Pro’s standout feature is easily the 180MP 2.5x periscope camera (1/1.49-inch, f/2.6), with HONOR saying this camera covers focal lengths from 68mm to 270mm (~11x). The phone also sports 100x digital zoom, but HONOR’s own marketing material (seen below) suggests that these images will still look horrible.

Nevertheless, we’re keen to see what a 180MP periscope camera can do. After all, even a crop to 5x from this 2.5x camera should yield a 45MP image. But we hope this periscope camera can avoid the usual pitfalls associated with many ultra-high-resolution sensors (e.g. increased noise, reduced dynamic range).

The rest of the Magic 6 Pro’s camera system seems great on paper too. There’s a 50MP “Eagle Eye” main camera (1/1.3-inch) with a variable aperture (f/1.4 to f/2.0), while a 50MP camera handles both ultrawide snaps and macro shots. Switch to the front and you’ll find a pill-shaped cutout hosting a 50MP camera and a 3D ToF sensor for 3D face unlock.

Expect a suitably high-end experience elsewhere. There’s an IP68 rating, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a 6.8-inch FHD+ 120Hz OLED screen, a 5,600mAh battery, 80W wired charging, and 66W wireless top-ups.

The new phone also brings the Magic OS 8.0 Android skin, and this software offers a number of nifty features. This includes call volume adjustments based on your environment, dragging content to a sidebar to share it with other apps, what appears to be HONOR’s take on Apple’s Standby Mode, and eye-tracking tech for opening some notifications.

It speaks to those who listen closely, who seek out the beauty in the ordinary. It is a reminder that magic doesn't always need to be loud and bold to be meaningful. The dimmer tint of magic audible teaches us to slow down and appreciate the little things. It shows us that there is beauty in the seemingly mundane, and that even in the quietest moments, there is magic to be found. It encourages us to look beyond the surface, to listen with our hearts and not just our ears. This kind of magic can be found in the simplest of things. It can be heard in the laughter of a child, the sigh of a loved one, or the melody of a song. It is the magic of connection, of human emotion and experience. It is a reminder that even in our darkest times, there is always a glimmer of hope, a touch of magic to guide us through. So let us not overlook the power of the dimmer tint of magic audible. Let us take a moment to appreciate the beauty it brings to our lives. For even in the quietest moments, there is always a hint of magic waiting to be discovered..
