Honor is strengthening its claim in the foldable phone market with its new model Magic V5. The device, which will be introduced in China on July 2, offers remarkable innovations in its segment in terms of both hardware and design. The company is launching the Magic V5 as the world’s thinnest and lightest foldable phone.

The device’s rear camera system has a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto lens. This lens, which supports optical image stabilization (OIS), provides high image quality in both long-distance shots and macro shots.

There is a 50-megapixel sensor in the main camera and a 50-megapixel lens on the ultra-wide-angle camera side. The triple camera structure aims to provide consistent performance in different shooting scenarios.

On the hardware side, the Honor Magic V5 comes with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Version chipset. This processor supports up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of storage, taking the device to the next level in terms of performance. The operating system is MagicOS 9 based on Android 15. The interface is equipped with both high functionality and user-specific experiences.

The screen design supports the foldable structure of the device without compromising on image quality. The 7.95-inch OLED screen on the inside offers 2K+ resolution and 120 Hz refresh rate. The outer side has a 6.45-inch LTPO OLED screen, which also supports the same refresh rate. LTPO technology provides power efficiency by dynamically adjusting the refresh rate of the screen.

The dimensions of the device also stand out in terms of its segment. The Magic V5, which is only 8.8 mm thick when folded, weighs 217 grams. With these values, it offers a thinner and lighter structure compared to the Magic V3. On the battery side, a large battery with a capacity of 6,100 mAh is used. This battery is equipped with 66 W or 80 W wired fast charging as well as 50 W wireless charging support.

The Honor Magic V5 stands out among foldable phones not only with its physical thinness but also with its technical capabilities. Featuring ambitious features in many areas from the camera system to the processor, from the display technology to the software interface, the device may create a new balance point in the foldable segment after the launch.
