Honor Magic V Teased

Although there are not many details to take from this post, but some rumours previously have hinted about it. According to a previous report from The Elec, Honor Magic V could have an 8.03-inch folding inner display paired with a 6.45-inch outer screen. That suggests a device that resembles Samsung’s Z Fold devices. Meaning, it unfolds from a phone form factor into a tablet) rather than its Z Flip (a phone that folds to become more compact). That’s also the form factor used by Honor’s former parent company Huawei with its Mate X2. Though now that Honor has been independent for a year it’s unclear how similar its upcoming device might be.

Meanwhile, Gizmochina reports that the company may launch not just one but two foldable smartphones. The other foldable might just be Honor Magic X but again nothing’s confirmed as of now. It also states that the company can launch these smartphones in China before spring. Tech company Honor can launch its first foldable smartphone in the first quarter of 2022. Earlier renders of the Honor Magic Fold smartphone have also surfaced. From those leaks, we can expect it to have 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. Additionally, the Honor Fold smartphone will provide a 4,500mAh battery and fast charge support. A 16-megapixel front camera will be given in this phone of Honor.
