The upcoming Honor Magic 6 Pro is set to make a striking design shift with its centered pill-shaped hole-punch display, departing from its predecessor's left-aligned cutout, as revealed by prominent tipster Digital Chat Station.

Intriguingly, the tipster has hinted at a significant design change for the Honor Magic 6 Pro, with a "centered pill hole" display, diverging from the left-aligned pill-shaped cutout seen in the Magic 5 Pro. Notably, the device will still incorporate a 3D face recognition sensor, while the second sensor within the pill-shaped cutout will serve as the front-facing camera.

Additionally, it's worth noting that Honor's upcoming UI, MagicOS 8.0, which is based on Android 14, has been adapted to accommodate this centered pill-shaped display. Speculation suggests it may introduce a feature reminiscent of the dynamic island style seen in iPhones. However, details about the device remain sparse, with an anticipated official launch in 2023, though a specific release date remains undisclosed.

Beyond the Honor Magic 6 Pro, the focus also turns toward Honor's new MagicOS 8.0 system. Reports indicate that this system will introduce a self-developed microkernel designed to enhance performance fluency and reduce power consumption.

This self-developed microkernel plays a pivotal role as the core of an operating system, managing fundamental tasks like memory management and process scheduling. By creating its own microkernel, Honor aims to optimize the performance and security of the MagicOS 8.0 system, raising expectations for a seamless and efficient user experience.
