Honor summoned us this January 10 to meet its first high-end folding, the Honor Magic V. It is a proposal in the style of the recent OPPO Find N, a folding in the format “tablet” which, when folded , is a conventional mobile. Asian manufacturers solve the problem with the Galaxy Z Fold 3, which is too narrow when folded.
We are going to unveil the specifications and characteristics of this new Honor mobile, a foldable that comes to fight with the best on the market with a Qualcomm processor, good memories and promising cameras.

Large display, large resolution
The Honor Magic V is the Asian company’s first foldable, and it comes with a 7.9-inch display with OLED technology, a high refresh rate of 90Hz, and a resolution of 2272 × 1984 when unfolded. When the panel is folded down to 6.45 inches, the Full HD + resolution and the refresh rate go up to 120 Hz.
It has the best Qualcomm processor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, accompanied by up to 12 + 512 GB of internal memory. To power such an ambitious set, the battery is 4,750 mAh, one of the largest of the foldable mobiles.
In terms of design, this Honor is very similar to what we saw in the OPPO Find N. It is not as long as the Fold, as its aspect ratio is not as high (21: 9). . When folded, it looks like a “normal” phone, which will make it easier to use.
In terms of connectivity, nothing is missing, with 5G, WiFi 6, NFC, Bluetooth 5.2, etc. Finally, indicate that it has a fingerprint reader on the side.
Triple camera with an eye-catching sensor
At the photographic level, this Honor has three 50 megapixel sensors. The first of these is the main sensor, it also has a wide-angle sensor and, finally, a hyperspectral sensor, technology that we have seen in the Huawei P50 Pocket.
This sensor is able to capture information that the human eye cannot see, as it shoots across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Combine this information that it captures with the images of the main sensor to obtain more details and increase textures, especially in portraits.
Honor Magic V versions and prices
The Honor Magic V has been officially presented in China, although there is no news of its possible arrival in Spain yet. We will update the price as soon as it becomes available.
