The new foldable comes with significant improvements from the previous generation and is designed for those seeking a top-notch phone with cutting-edge technology and enhanced privacy features. Here are the top highlights about the HONOR Magic V2.
1.Thinnest and Lightest
The HONOR Magic V2 marks a significant breakthrough by challenging the industry norm with its remarkably slim and lightweight design. This innovation makes foldable phones move beyond being exclusive, transforming them into flagship devices accessible for almost everyone in their daily lives. Weighing just 231g and a folded thickness of 9.9mm, it’s the first foldable to measure below 1cm.
2. Strong and Super-light Titanium Hinge
The HONOR Magic V2 is able to achieve its exceptional lightweight design and durability by employing titanium alloy in the phone’s hinge and using second-generation nanocrystal glass. The hinge can withstand over 400,000 folds, while the nanocrystal glass provides 10 times greater drop resistance compared to standard glass. The external screen is certified with a 5 Star Drop Resistance Certification from SGS. With a unique zero-gear structure, the hinge on the HONOR Magic V2 lets users watch videos and capture photos hands free. This hovering feature is particularly handy for group shots, creative selfies, and action photos while ensuring sharp and clear images.
3. Ultra-thin 5000mAh Silicon-carbon Battery in a Lightweight Body
Most importantly, the HONOR Magic V2 has a long battery life. It has a large capacity 5000mAh dual-cell silicon-carbon battery and 66W HONOR SuperCharge for fast charging in minutes. The silicon-carbon battery was first being used in electric vehicle (EV) batteries such as those used by Tesla, making HONOR the pioneer in utilizing this advanced battery technology in a foldable phone.
4. First Foldable to Adapt 3840 PWM Dimming Technology
Moreover, the HONOR Magic V2 prioritizes user eye comfort with an impressive 120Hz high refresh rate featured on both the inner and external screens. It also adapts industry’s highest 3840 PWM Dimming technology for smooth browsing and entertainment experience.
The HONOR Magic V2 has a 7.92 inches large internal display, giving users a tablet-like experience. The foldable is a two-in-one device for business and entertainment, perfect for users to fulfill different purposes from work to entertainment in life. It supports a HDR 10+, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and 1.07 billion colors, giving visuals in true-to-life colors.
5. Upgraded Camera Capabilities for Photographic Excellence
Photography wise, the HONOR Magic V2 sets a new standard with its triple rear camera setup, featuring a 50MP Main Camera, a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera, and a 20MP Telephoto Camera along with dual 16MP front cameras.
Apart from that, the phone’s improved AI Recognition enhances image identification for intelligent and more efficient photography experience, including features like HONOR Motion Sensing Capture.
6. Discrete Security Chipset and Enhanced AI Privacy Call
Worry less with the HONOR Magic V2’s Discrete Security Chipset which ensures enhanced data protection by securely storing passwords, biometrics, and facial recognition data, safeguarding users’ sensitive information from potential leaks.
Adding on to the phone’s privacy feature is the AI Privacy Call 2.0 which tackles the problem of others hearing user’s phone conversations by adjusting the call volume based on surroundings, preventing sound leakage even in crowded and quiet places like elevators.
7. Multi-tasking Capabilities for Better Productivity
As the HONOR Magic V2 functions like a tablet, it is useful when users need to juggle multiple applications at a time such as gaming, streaming, work or browsing social media. It can open up to four multi-windows, with split-screens in vertical and horizontal mode.
Additionally, the split-screens provide a unique dual-screen gaming experience. The HONOR Magic V2’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset ensures a lag-free and smooth gaming experience. It runs on MagicOS 7.2, based on Android 13, for a smooth and feature-rich user experience.
The HONOR Magic V2 will be available in three premium colors of Black, Purple and B;ack (PU). Starting 25 January, the HONOR Magic V2 will be available for purchase nationwide. Be sure to take advantage of this pre-order to be among the first to snag the HONOR Magic V2.
