Living up to the marketing tagline, the phone measures 8.8mm when folded and 4.1mm when unfolded, all in a compact package that weighs just 217g. More importantly, the form factor doesn’t compromise its hardware.
Within the device lies the 5820mAh HONOR silicon-carbon battery. Together with the E2 Power Enhanced Chip and SoC voltage regulation, the Magic V5 delivers power efficiency, heat management, and operational safety for a full day’s worth of use. With 66W wired and 50W wireless charging, the Magic V5 recharges rapidly when you need it to. It also touts 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage.
The 7.95-inch OLED inner screen offers a 2,352 x 2,172 resolution in its full form, providing ample room to enjoy content and boost your productivity. Even in its folded form, the 6.43-inch OLED screen with 2,376 x 1,060 resolution is more than enough to fulfil your everyday needs, and it’s all powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform.
Camera-wise, users will be getting a device capable of taking fantastic shots thanks to its hardware and the HONOR AI Falcon Camera System. A powerful 64MP Periscope Telephoto Camera capable of up to 100x zoom is the main headline, alongside a 50MP Wide Camera and a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera. The high-performance lenses and HONOR’s sophisticated AI image processing will ensure all your shots come with clear clarity, accurate colours, and incredible detail.
After the shots, you can utilise tools like AI Super Zoom, AI Enhanced Portrait, and AI Motion Sensing Capture to achieve pro-quality results, whether in fast-moving or low-light conditions. Similarly, integrated editing features such as AI Outpainting, AI Eraser, AI Cutout, AI Upscale, and Live Photo provide more options for post-editing without the need for additional apps.
The HONOR Magic V5 is also well protected. The Carbon Fibre-Reinforced inner display keeps thing working within, while the Nano-Crystal Shield on the outer screen helps prevent those everyday drops and scratches from leaving a mark. we
