The spelling is the same, but we pronounce it slightly different.
While in English, the emphasis is on the first syllable (“MA-gazine”), we accentuate the second syllable in French (“ma-GA-zine”). Also, note that the “i” of “zine” is a shorter sound in French than in English.

Be careful: a lot of people confuse the words “magazine” and “magasin.” The second one means “store”.
