Honor has announced its first foldable smartphone, the Magic V launching currently in the People’s Republic of China. This flagship has the same design language as Leader Samsung Z Fold3, featuring a large screen when folded and a small one when closed.
This foldable goes on sale on January 18 with ¥9,999 price for the base model that’s about $1,600 for the 256GB storage model. Let’s get to the specifications of the Honor Magic V, it has a 7.9-inch size, a resolution of 2272 by 1984 and an aspect ratio of 10:9. Disappointingly, there is no 120Hz refresh rate in comparison with the Samsung Fold3.
The external screen measures 6.45 inches with a resolution of 2560 by 1080 and a 120Hz refresh rate, although with a 21:9 aspect ratio. According to Honor, this will make the device more useful when used as a phone.

Right at the back of the Honor Magic V is a 50MP main camera, wide 50MP angle lens and 50MP ” spectrum enhanced camera” lens. Interesting, it also has a dual 42MP selfie camera within the foldable and on the outer display.
There is no announcement of a global model. But unlike former Parent Company Huwaei, Honor most certainly will sell this Foldable in the US. The Chinese model has a higher 512GB storage option that is also available only in titanium silver, Black and burnt orange colours.
