The Magic V5 of Honor intends to beat a new record for finesse, and we know its date of presentation
Honor intends to mark the folding smartphones market from the start of the summer with its new model. This is not surprising: the Magic V3 had been revealed, in China, in mid-July 2024, and its successor will be formalized a year later. He will take the name of Magic V5 and the manufacturer has just announced, on the occasion of the 2025 edition of the Shanghai Mobile World Congress, the date of its presentation.
It is therefore necessary to expect the folding mobile to be presented on July 2, at least on its domestic market. This does not mean that it will be available simultaneously on the old continent; In general, it is necessary to wait a few months for the brand terminals to make their debut at the other end of the globe, and we can count on an release in September 2025, during the IFA of Berlin period.
A featherweight and AI
What to expect from this folding smartphone? Successor of a Magic V3 characterized by its finesse, since it does not exceed 9.3 mm when it is closed, the Magic V5 intends to establish a new slimming record, in particular by breaking the 8.93 mm of theOppo Find N5which is not marketed in Europe. The first teaser published by Honor shows in any case a particularly fine profile (and also announced ultra-light), from which exceeds an imposing photo block of which he says he includes a main 200 megapixel sensor, replacing the 50 MPx of Magic V3. He also specifies that the smartphone will be the lightest in its category and that it will be particularly thought of for productivity. We expect no less from a mobile which, once unfolded, plays the mini-tablets.
We do not know much in the smartphone, except that he will embody the brand’s ambitions in terms of artificial intelligence, of which Honor had explained the details in another MWC 2025 – In Barcelona, this time. An argument that should not be failed to use the other folding smartphone of summer, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7whose presentation is expected around July 9, according to the last leaks provided by the genre specialist, Evan Blass.
