Ultra-Slim Design: The New Standard for Foldables
HONOR’s Magic V5 is a game-changer in the foldable phone market, boasting an incredibly slim 8.8mm thickness when folded—making it as thin as a 50-cent Malaysian coin. Despite its reduced thickness, it delivers top-tier performance and multitasking capabilities.
HONOR hints that the Magic V5 easily slips into pockets or handbags without the bulk typically associated with foldables. And this is a celebratory achievement on top of the fact that the Magic V5’s thinness beats the predecessor, Magic V3, which was 9.2mm thick.
Multitasking Features for Maximum Efficiency
The Magic V5 is built to enhance productivity, offering features that are typically reserved for traditional bar phones but with the added benefits of a foldable screen. This device is optimized for multitasking, ensuring a smooth transition between apps, multitasking modes, and various workflows.
Like previous generations, you'll definitely be able to enjoy the likes of Flex Mode, where you can use multiple apps side-by-side with split-screen functionality. Definitely expect quick app switching and easy drag-and-drop features for productivity on the go.
Premium Performance with Robust Hardware
It's also said that the HONOR Magic V5 will be powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which is designed to provide smooth gaming, high-speed multitasking, and seamless performance across apps.
