What you need to know

Honor is inviting everyone to the global launch event of the flagship Magic 3 Series on August 12.
The new devices will be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset.
Rumors suggest three new models are coming, including one with a 6.76-inch OLED display.

After the unveiling and release of the mid-range Honor 50 series just last month, there's already word on the net of new Honor smartphones coming soon. Rumors suggest the upcoming "Magic 3" will be a proper flagship series, and thanks to a press invite sent out by Honor on Thursday, it looks like we won't have to wait much longer to learn more about the new devices.

The notice sent out by Honor invites those interested in the new Honor Magic 3 Series to a live global launch event happening in just a few weeks on August 12, 2021. Along with telling us a bit about the new phones, the event also promises to share a few key updates about Honor and how it has reached new benchmarks in innovative design and technology.

The event will be streamed on Honor's website as well as several major streaming websites beginning at 12:30pm BST.

Though not much is confirmed regarding the Magic 3 Series devices, Honor has already announced that they will feature Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset for faster and best-in-class performance, making them the first Honor devices to do so.

Though there are no other confirmed details, the well-known Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station as well as reliable tipster @RODENT950 have shared some potential specifications that appear to have some legitimacy behind them.

If the rumors are to be believed, we're expecting to see three new models when Honor debuts the Magic 3 lineup next month, including one which could feature a 6.76-inch OLED display. That model is said to have a dual punch-hole design with QHD+ screen resolution, along with support for 66W/100W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging.

Considering the press invite shows a close-up of a camera lens, it's also suspected that the new devices will feature a powerful camera setup. Depending on the price and specs, it's possible one could even land on our list of the best Android phones soon enough.

Honor's Magic 3 Series event will be available to stream globally at 12:30pm BST on August 12, 2021, so be sure you're there if you want to be among the first to learn about these new devices.

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
