Honor has launched the world’s thinnest foldable phone, Magic V5. But it is only the slimmest phone if you overlook the camera module, and that too if it is the white edition. The Magic V5 was launched in China on July 2, Wednesday, and it is yet to be released in other parts of the world.
The thinnest foldable phone will be available in three colourways: Ivory White, Black, Dawn Gold and Reddish Brown. Even though its availability in India is not known yet, here is everything you need to know about Honor’s latest smartphone.
Design and build
When it comes to thickness, the Magic V5 at 8.8 mm beats the Oppo Find N5, which is 8.9 mm. In day-to-day use, the 0.1 mm difference is insignificant, but Honor’s phone seems to be slightly thinner than the Oppo thanks to a very small curve. It needs to be noted that this only applies to the Ivory White version of the phone. The other colour options are 9 mm thick, as they come in fibre and vegan leather finishes. It is also among the lightest foldable smartphones, sharing the title with the Vivo X Fold 5, weighing in at 217 g. The phone features Honor Super Steel Hinge, offering enhanced strength and allowing a smooth folding action.
Cameras/photography
Despite having a thin overall design, the Magic V5 seems chunkier due to its protruding rear camera module. However, the company has added a well-designed camera with advanced photography. According to the company, the Magic V5 offers a complete photography experience. It sports a 50MP wide camera, a 50MP ultra-wide camera, and an improved 654MP periscope telephoto lens.
AI features
The Magic V5 comes with cutting-edge AI image processing to produce sharp, detailed images and videos. Additionally, Honor offers an AI agent, YOYO, which enables users to easily complete everyday tasks with basic commands. These tasks include creating PowerPoint presentations, searching, sharing files, coding, booking taxis, accessing live cameras, sharing screens, and more.
Display
Both displays use 120Hz LTPO OLED panels. The 7.9-inch inner screen offers room for multitasking, allowing users to make the most of the expansive display. On the other hand, the 6.43-inch external display allows easy access to all the essential apps on the go. The Honor Magic V5 has dust and water resistance ratings of IP58 and IP59, respectively. The device features remarkable resistance against scratches and impacts during daily use. This is possible owing to its build, which includes HONOR’s Carbon Fibre Reinforced Inner Display Panel and Anti-scratch NanoCrystal Shield on the exterior screen.
