HONOR launches Magic V2, the lightest Foldable Smartphone

HONOR, the global technology brand, has officially unveiled its latest flagship foldable smartphone, the HONOR Magic V2, in China.

Designed to encourage widespread adoption, the HONOR Magic V2 sets new industry standards with its slim and lightweight book-style foldable design, offering significant improvements in form factor, battery life, display quality, and user experience.

Ultra-Slim and Lightweight Design Redefined

HONOR has dedicated meticulous attention to detail in refining the product structure, manufacturing process, and material selection for its latest flagship smartphone. Weighing a mere 231g1 and measuring only 9.9mm2 in thickness when folded, the HONOR Magic V2 pushes the boundaries of innovation in the foldable device category.

The HONOR Magic V2 boasts a first-of-its-kind Super-light Titanium Hinge, striking the perfect balance between weight and strength. Additionally, HONOR has developed a new SGS-certified proprietary steel for the hinge mechanism, ensuring enhanced durability and robustness. Thanks to these breakthrough innovations, the HONOR Magic V2 has obtained the coveted durability certification from SGS, a globally recognized authority, with the hinge capable of enduring more than 400,000 folds—equivalent to a lifespan of up to ten years based on folding 100 times a day.

Groundbreaking Silicon-Carbon Battery Technology for Extended Performance

The HONOR Magic V2 introduces the thinnest dual Silicon-Carbon Batteries, with an average thickness of a mere 2.72mm. This innovative battery technology incorporates HONOR’s revolutionary low-voltage charge energy-gathering system, delivering greater power output at the same voltage compared to conventional graphite-based batteries. With a battery capacity of 5000mAh3 and support for 66W HONOR SuperCharge, the HONOR Magic V2 ensures users can stay connected without the need for constant recharging.

HONOR’s Signature Human-Centric Display Technology

Featuring a stunning foldable OLED LTPO display, the HONOR Magic V2 offers an immersive user experience with support for 1.07 billion colors and exceptional color accuracy. The display incorporates HONOR’s industry-leading 3840Hz PWM Dimming technology4, which minimizes eye strain and provides comfortable viewing even during extended usage.

The HONOR Magic V2 includes human-centric innovations such as Dynamic Dimming, which replicates natural light rhythms, stimulates ciliary muscle movement, and reduces eye fatigue. The display’s brightness level adjusts automatically based on external lighting conditions and screen time duration, ensuring optimal comfort for the human eye.

Moreover, the Circadian Night Display feature adjusts the screen to warmer colors and reduces colors known to significantly affect the circadian rhythm. This feature has been tested to increase melatonin levels, promoting longer and better sleep quality for users.

Upgraded Camera Capabilities for Exceptional Photography

The HONOR Magic V2 sets a new benchmark in smartphone photography and videography, featuring a triple rear camera setup that includes a 50MP Main Camera (f/1.9), a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera (f/2.0), and a 20MP Telephoto Camera (f/2.4). These advanced camera sensors enable users to capture impressive photos with superior light sensing capabilities. The front-facing dual camera setup consists of two 16MP Cameras (f/2.2) and supports various capture modes, providing effortless content creation for users.

Seamless and Secure Operating System Experience

Powering the HONOR Magic V2 is MagicOS 7.2, based on Android 13, delivering a smooth and feature-rich user experience tailored to various usage scenarios such as social interactions, lifestyle, entertainment, information, office, and travel. To ensure user privacy and security, the HONOR Magic V2 introduces a new parallel space feature that allows users to easily separate work apps from personal apps.

The HONOR Magic V2 will be available in an array of elegant colors, including Silk Black, Silk Purple, Gold, and Black—a special version featuring a vegan leather back.
