While it also comes with a slightly higher price tag of S$2,199, we feel that the Magic V5 still offers excellent value compared to other pricey book-style foldables such as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 or OPPO Find N5, even if its battery uptime in controlled testing isn’t as high as its predecessor. Not to mention, the higher price tag is also due to the additional RAM and faster storage offered on the Magic V5 compared to the V3, and we haven’t yet even accounted for other tangible improvements that the phone boasts. The ability to have three apps running at the same time is a boon for productivity, and there’s a decent suite of AI tools that work well enough without becoming too gimmicky. The cameras are fantastic, and the upgraded 64MP telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom offers more flexibility when shooting far-away subjects.

The HONOR Magic V5 sets a new standard for slim foldables without compromising on performance or features. It delivers solid photography, smooth display performance, and excellent battery life in a surprisingly thin package. While the camera bump and video playback quirks are notable drawbacks, its value proposition is hard to ignore, especially at a competitive price point of RM6,999. For those considering a foldable phone, the Magic V5 is a serious contender.

Honor somehow manages to improve on its flagship foldable year-on-year. From the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip to the new dust resistance rating, or a bigger battery with further reduced thickness and weight, the Magic V5 is an upgrade across the board. While it also comes with a slightly higher price tag of S$2,199, we feel that the Magic V5 still offers excellent value compared to other pricey book-style foldables such as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 or OPPO Find N5, even if its battery uptime in controlled testing isn’t as high as its predecessor.

HONOR Magic V5As the market becomes saturated with newly released foldables, the HONOR Magic V5 certainly faces some tough competition. While its form factor is impressive, there other phones are capable of matching its thinness, as evidenced in the competition tab. That said, there is more to the device than its appearance, which, by the way, is quite bewitching. Its deceptively durable build, IP59 rating, and stylus support stand, in my humble opinion, as its strong points. It also comes with lots of practical features. The highlight is naturally the multitasking function, which is fun, convenient, and easy to access. For RM6,999, the Magic V5 certainly lives up to its name, offering an experience that’s nothing short of enchanting.

When it comes to flagship book-style foldables, there are really only a few serious choices in the game and the Honor Magic V5 is one of them. You get the world’s slimmest phone with flagship-grade displays and hardware, good cameras and solid build quality. Add in its generous assortment of free accessories that include a casing and a charger and the Honor Magic V5 makes for a compelling choice if you’re looking for a flagship foldable.

If there's a prize for the slimmest foldable phone, then the Honor Magic V5 is definitely taking it — for now. At 8.88mm thick, Honor's latest foldable is so thin, it feels just like a regular phone. Compared against, say the newest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, which claims a 8.9mm thickness, you can barely tell the difference. But as slim as it may be, you still have to get used to the phone's massive camera bump, which really sticks out. It also doesn't help that the camera makes the Honor Magic V5 unbalanced when unfolded, which feels a tad irritating when trying to use it while it's lying on the table. The camera bump helps to keep the phone stable when folded, though.

Foldable phones are lit at the moment and are getting a lot of attention and IMHO rightly so. We have got to the point where we can now make the choice between having a skinny slab with a 6ish-inch display or a skinny phone with two displays, one hiding away until it is needed. All the big players have one (except Apple, but trust me, it’s coming). However, in this spicy but growing sector of the smartphone market, there is a lot of competition to have the best in categories. Honor have stuck to what they do best, as they proved last year with the Honor Magic V3; they have gone thin. They have (for the moment at least) the thinnest* folding phone in the world, the Honor Magic V5, at a preposterous 8.8mm folded and 4.1 mm unfolded. Sounds good, let’s have a closer look then.

There’s little to say about the software experience at this point. Honor didn’t say much about it and with the focus being initially on the launch in China, I’m not surprised: the software experience built around Google and offering AI features will come in the future. I wouldn’t expect it to vary too much from the sort of thing we’ve seen on the Honor Magic 7 Pro or the Honor 400 Pro, though. But for now I’m happy to put the software to one side. It’s Honor’s hardware that shines and this is going to be a powerful folding phone, which is slim, lightweight and potentially offering great battery life. The ball now falls into Samsung’s court, while we’re expecting to hear more about the Honor Magic V5’s global launch later in the summer. Currently there’s no price on the Honor Magic V5, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it keeps the £1,699.99 asking price.

I think a good foldable phone needs to excel in four key areas. It needs to be slim and light, have strong battery life, be robust and durable and have high-class cameras. Considering what you have to pay for the things, this doesn’t seem like an unreasonable list, and yet most foldables on UK shelves fall down in one area or another. I won’t be sure on the battery life or quality of the cameras until the time comes for my full review but, based on the specs, I’d say Honor has a pretty decent balance on its hands. The camera hardware and bigger battery look promising, the slimness of the build is an affront to physics at this point and the dust and water resistance is the best we’ve seen from a foldable so far – though there’s room for Samsung to do better.

The Magic V5 is Honor's latest flagship foldable smartphone, and it has just been announced for the Chinese market. A global launch will follow later this summer, but we had the opportunity to do a quick hands-on with this incredibly thin and light device.

这个屏幕尺寸介于智能手机和平板的边缘。大部分平板电脑都采用更大尺寸的屏幕,不过也有一些智能手机提供了这样大的屏幕。
大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
