It has been some time now since we initially noticed the Honor Magic V2 and acquired our preliminary hands-on expertise on the Chinese language announcement occasion. Since then, the telephone lastly had its international launch alongside an RSR Porsche Design version. It is virtually Might now, and we lastly we lastly get a chance to overview each units. We’re solely mentioning the timeframe of issues since, in right this moment’s dynamic market, all that point is greater than sufficient to make a telephone not essentially irrelevant however positively much less thrilling.
However not the Honor Magic V2, although. It stays particular, like actually particular, for each foldable followers and the smartphone realm usually. Certain, it could be working a generation-old Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset at this level, however that is about the one non-current and non-revolutionary factor in regards to the Magic V2.
Let’s begin with what might be probably the most spectacular side of the Magic V2 – its dimension and weight. After all, in absolute phrases, it’s removed from compact, measuring 156.7×74.1×9.9mm folded and tipping the dimensions at 231g (with just a few asterisks). It could not sound that spectacular till you notice that Honor has made the primary foldable on this kind issue with a lower than 10mm thickness.
And if that is not spectacular sufficient, contemplate that the non-folding Samsung Galaxy S24 Extremely measures 162.3 x 79 x 8.6 mm and weighs in at 232 grams. With the V2, now you can get an entire additional show (and a big 7.92-inch one at that) and no different main compromises, together with a hefty 5,000 mAh battery a potent triple digital camera setup and even an additional selfie digital camera all in roughly the identical kind issue as Samsung’s or Apple’s present flagship fashions. Foldables actually have come a great distance, and regardless of its relative age, the Honor Magic V2 represents the present pinnacle of this kind issue.
It virtually appears like Honor broke some legal guidelines of physics with the Magic V2. Loads of the house and weight financial savings come from the brand new silicon-carbon battery used within the Magic V2. It boasts spectacular vitality density, making it tremendous skinny, which explains how one can get that capability inside a svelte physique just like the Magic V2’s.
There are numerous extra refinements and upgrades within the Magic V2, which is technically the third main iteration in Honor’s foldable line. We’ll positively go over every part intimately, however some highlights embody the 120Hz refresh charge on the foldable show and LTPO tech on each panels plus a model new digital camera setup with OIS and 8×8 dToF Laser AF on the primary cam.
We’ll additionally point out that whereas we had been attempting to suit the V2 within the hectic overview schedule, a bundle arrived at our doorstep with one other V2, a v2 of the V2, so to talk. The Porsche Design Honor Magic V2 RSR is a way more unique repackaging of in any other case the identical {hardware}, and we’ll say just a few phrases on that one as effectively.
In contrast to most mainstream flagships, foldables nonetheless are likely to current themselves as extra premium merchandise. Therefore, you’ll be able to normally count on extra consideration to the retail bundle like again within the day. That is positively true for the Magic V2. It is available in a big and really posh-feeling field that gives loads of safety throughout transport.
The accent bundle is kind of lavish, particularly in fashionable phrases. You get one among Honor’s 66W SuperCharge adapters within the field which pairs completely with the charging capabilities of the telephone. Curiously sufficient, the charger nonetheless makes use of a Sort-A connection, which is why you get a Sort-A to Sort-C USB cable within the field. Additionally included is a snap-on case with a carbon fiber sample in addition to a kickstand.
And when you thought that was premium, wait until you see the Porsche Design model. An excellent nicer field is simply the beginning, however the contents do go the additional mile.
For one, you get not one, however two chargers, one with a UK model plug (Sort G) and one other with a Euro plug (Sort F) – as a result of when you can afford the RSR model, you clearly are a globetrotter that may’t be bothered with socket adapters. You additionally get two USB cables, as a result of at this level, why not?
The bundle consists of a good nicer again cowl that is clad in what’s both actual leather-based or seems and feels very near it, plus it has actual thread stitching.
Each Magic V2s may be operated with a stylus, however solely the Porsche Design model comes with one within the field. And it is a fairly fancy-looking one too, as befitting the model, plus it comes with a carrying case of its personal. Lifetime of the wealthy and the well-known, certainly.
