It offers many of the features associated with premium flagship devices, but with a price tag well below Honor’s Magic Series, which is nominally the top of the range. It also comes loaded with AI tools that range from useful to mildly eccentric.

South Africa has reached a moment in the adoption of agentic AI that Salesforce compares to the rise of the internet in 1999. According to the global customer relationship management software company, businesses that delay adoption risk falling behind as AI agents begin changing work, customer engagement and how value is created.

Despite hit-or-miss AI features, including bizarre video generation and entertaining dance animations, the new “number series” device might be the “flagship killer” the Chinese company claims. A sleek 6.57-inch AMOLED display, slim bezels, prominent camera housing, and an extra side button deliver a premium feel for the 600 Pro.
