Description
HONOR Magic9 Pro Max WKL-AN20 (CN Version)
Important Notice: This is a Chinese-market model. It supports all major system languages, and the Google Play Store can be installed, although it is not pre-installed on the device. Please consider these software differences before purchasing.
HONOR Magic9 Pro Max brings a dual 200MP rear camera system, a 6.8-inch OLED display and an 8,800mAh battery together in a phone built for photography, video and everyday multitasking. This PDAPlaza listing covers the Chinese-market WKL-AN20 with MagicOS 11, with memory and color choices available on this page.
Key Features
- 200MP main and 200MP periscope telephoto cameras with optical stabilization, plus a 50MP ultrawide camera.
- 55MP front camera with a separate 3D depth camera, flexible framing and 3D face recognition.
- 6.8-inch OLED display with 1320 × 2868 resolution, adaptive 1–120Hz refresh and up to 10,000-nit peak brightness.
- Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 Mobile Platform with MagicOS 11 based on Android 17.
- 8,800mAh typical battery capacity, up to 100W wired charging and up to 80W wireless charging with a compatible charger sold separately.
- Dual nano-SIM, NFC, stereo speakers, an infrared transmitter and IP68/IP69/IP69K laboratory-rated protection.
Two High-Resolution Cameras for Different Perspectives
The 200MP main camera pairs an f/1.57 lens with optical stabilization, while the 200MP periscope camera offers 3.5× optical zoom for tighter framing. A 50MP autofocus ultrawide camera adds another perspective. Maximum pixel counts depend on the selected mode; the highest still-image resolution requires the appropriate high-resolution setting.
Video Controls with Room to Create
Standard rear video recording reaches 4K at 120fps in supported modes. ARRI CINEMA adds a separate workflow with recording up to 4K at 60fps, LogC3, 10-bit color and ARRI Wide Gamut 3. ARRI CINEMA, flash portraits and firework portraits require an OTA update; camera and mode restrictions apply. Cinematic LiveVideo features may also require an update. Optional teleconverters and filmmaking kits are sold separately.
A Large Display with Adjustable Comfort
The OLED panel combines a wide DCI-P3 color gamut with adaptive refresh and several display-comfort settings. Its 10,000-nit figure is peak brightness under specified conditions, not sustained full-screen output; the listed global peak is 2,000 nits. Rounded corners reduce the visible area slightly. Eye-comfort features are intended for everyday viewing and are not medical treatment.
Power for Capture and Everyday Use
The 8,800mAh typical battery supports long sessions between charges, with actual runtime depending on use. Wired HONOR SuperCharge reaches up to 100W with the original charger and cable. Up to 80W wireless charging requires a compatible HONOR wireless charger purchased separately. Charging power varies with battery level, temperature and operating conditions.
MagicOS Tools and Connected Devices
MagicOS 11 combines YOYO assistance, translation, note-taking and multitasking tools with supported cross-device connections. Features and services depend on software version, region, language, account and compatible devices.
