Honor MagicPad 3 is coming: What will it offer?
Honor will introduce its new foldable phone, the Honor Magic V5, at an event in China on July 2. Following the Oppo Find N5, the Magic V5 will be the second foldable device to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite processor. Alongside the foldable, Honor appears set to launch its premium tablet, the Honor MagicPad 3. The company has already begun official promotions for the MagicPad 3.
What Will the Honor MagicPad 3 Offer?
The first official images reveal that the MagicPad 3 is only 5.79 mm thick, making it one of the thinnest tablets in its class. Honor has also confirmed the tablet will have a 13.3-inch display. For comparison, its predecessor, the MagicPad 2, launched with a 12.3-inch OLED screen.
Leaked details suggest the MagicPad 3, developed under the codename “Changan,” will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. It is expected to offer up to 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 1 TB of UFS storage. The tablet will come with a large battery and support 66W fast charging.
The device will be available in three colors: white, gold, and gray. Official marketing materials especially highlight the gold variant.
