Honor has unveiled its latest flagship foldable smartphone, the Honor Magic V2, which sets a new standard for slimness in the foldable phone category. With a thickness of just 9.9mm, the Magic V2 is as thin as some traditional bar phones, offering a sleek and lightweight design without compromising on features. It boasts a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and a large 5,000mAh battery. Let’s dive into the details of this impressive foldable device.

 

 

A Remarkably Slim and Lightweight Build

The design and build quality of the Honor Magic V2 take center stage. The smartphone features a premium design with a rectangular camera module, reminiscent of the previous Magic V series. When folded, it measures a mere 9.9mm in thickness. However, when opened, it impressively slimmed down to just 4.7mm, surpassing even the thickness of conventional bar phones like the Huawei Mate 50RS.

 

Not only is the Honor Magic V2 incredibly thin, but it is also remarkably lightweight. The plain leather version weighs just 231g, while the glass version weighs only 237g. To put it into perspective, both versions are lighter than Apple‘s iPhone 14 Pro Max, which weighs 240g. In terms of durability, Honor has introduced a new hinge technology called the Honor Luban titanium hinge, which has passed rigorous folding quality certification and can withstand 400,000 folds without any issues. The hinge also supports multi-angle hovering, allowing users to use the phone in various positions.

 

Impressive Display Specifications

The Honor Magic V2 boasts an impressive display setup. It features a 6.43-inch 2376×1060 BOE OLED outer screen with a 20:9 aspect ratio. The display supports a 120Hz LTPO refresh rate and 3840Hz high-frequency PWM dimming. The panel has received TÜV Rheinland flicker-free certification and offers a peak brightness of 2500nit. The inner display is a 7.92-inch 2344×2156 BOE OLED panel with a 9.8:9 aspect ratio, matching the refresh rate and dimming frequency of the outer screen.

 

Powerful Performance with Overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

Under the hood, the Honor Magic V2 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. However, this is not the standard 3.18GHz variant; it is the overclocked version with a maximum frequency of 3.36GHz. This chip, known for its performance, has also been used in flagship devices like the Samsung Galaxy S23 series and the recently launched Red Magic 8S Pro.

 

 

Software and Camera Capabilities

The Honor Magic V2 runs on MagicOS 7.2 based on Android 13. It incorporates a self-developed RF enhancement chip and utilizes wrap-around antenna extension technology, enhancing the device’s antenna performance. In terms of camera capabilities, the device features a 16MP camera on the outer screen and another 16MP shooter on the inside. On the back, it boasts a triple camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 20MP telephoto lens capable of 40x zoom. The device also packs a large 5,000mAh battery with support for 66W fast charging.

 

Price and Availability

The Honor Magic V2 is currently available for purchase in China. The 16GB RAM + 256GB storage version is priced at 8,999 yuan ($1,300), while the higher-end 16GB RAM + 512GB storage variant costs 9,999 yuan ($1,450). For those seeking even more storage, the Honor Magic V2 Ultimate edition offers 16GB RAM + 1TB ROM and is priced at 11,999 yuan (~$1,700). The pre-sale will begin on July 12 at 21:30, and the official sale will commence on July 20 at 10:08. Please note that the availability of this product is currently limited to China.

 

The Honor Magic V2 truly raises the bar for foldable smartphones with its incredibly slim and lightweight design, powerful performance, and impressive display. It offers a seamless and premium user experience, making it a compelling choice for those seeking the latest innovations in mobile technology.
