Google unveiled the Pixel Fold, while Samsung will launch the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 in two weeks. But Honor released the Honor Magic V2 in China, a foldable smartphone roughly as thick as the iPhone 14!
This form factor is amazing. Honor may be the first to compress a foldable phone into a tiny tablet. The Magic V2 definitely rivals the Pixel Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 5.
Several advancements helped the Chinese company achieve this design breakthrough. If Honor’s phone survives real-world durability tests, it could put Samsung and other manufacturers under pressure.
The Honor Magic V2 is a flagship Android phone with a 120Hz OLED panel, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 CPU, 16GB RAM, up to 1TB storage, and a triple-lens camera. To clarify, this is Honor’s greatest Android flagship.
Design details are more intriguing. Amazingly, the Honor Magic V2 weights 231g. The handset’s 9.9mm folded thickness is noteworthy.
The foldable Magic V2 is lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro Max!
Honor claims its new hinge uses an SGS-certified unique steel alloy. Thus, you can fold the handset over 400,000 times. It may live 10 years or 100 folds each day.
The battery is the second advance that allows compact foldable phones. Honor Magic V2 has the “thinnest dual silicon-carbon batteries” at 2.72 mm. Also, Magic V2’s 5,000 mAh battery supports 66W SuperCharge.
