Honor is poised to make its mark in the global foldable phone market, and the excitement is building. During the IFA 2023 event held in Berlin, the company made an exciting announcement: the Honor Magic V2 is on the horizon, ready to launch in select regions of Europe and Latin America.
The Honor Magic V2, boasting the title of the world’s thinnest foldable phone, is gearing up to hit the shelves in Germany, Italy, Spain, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. Furthermore, there are expectations that this remarkable device will also find its way into the hands of consumers in certain Latin American countries.
As for the exact release date, Honor has kept that card close to its chest for now. However, according to reports from AndroidAuthority, we can anticipate the grand unveiling of the Honor Magic V2 during the first quarter (Q1) of 2024, which translates to a potential release window between January and March of the coming year.
Just as a quick reminder, the Honor Magic V2 made its initial debut in China back in July. Being hailed as the world’s thinnest foldable phone, it measures an astonishingly slim 9.9mm for the leather variant and tips the scales at a mere 231 grams, making it even lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro lineup!
Now, let’s delve into its impressive specifications. The device sports a spacious 7.92-inch internal display along with a 6.43-inch external one. Under the hood, it houses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, accompanied by a generous 16GB of RAM and the option for internal storage capacities of up to a whopping 1TB. Remarkably, despite its sleek and lightweight profile, the Honor Magic V2 packs a punch with its 5,000mAh battery.
In the realm of photography, it doesn’t disappoint. Equipped with a 50MP primary sensor boasting Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), a 50MP ultra-wide camera, and a 20MP telephoto camera offering 2.5x zoom, this device is a photography enthusiast’s dream. Additionally, it doesn’t skimp on selfies, featuring a 16MP front-facing camera on each of its screens.
In the Chinese market, the Honor Magic V2 is available with a starting price tag of Rp19 million for the 16/256GB configuration. With its impressive features and capabilities, it’s poised to give the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 a run for its money in the competitive foldable phone arena.
