June 15, 2025
HONOR confirmed it’s bringing a foldable phone to market in the coming weeks. While we’ve seen teaser images of theHONOR Magic V, we’ve yet to get an idea of its specifications. Now, tipsterDigital Chat Stationhas published a list of specs seemingly related to a “prototype” Magic V model.
The phone could use two displays similarly to theSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. The external display may house a centered punch hole, while the inner screen uses a top-left selfie camera cutout. HONOR will reportedly settle for 90Hz and 120Hz refresh rates for outer and inner screens, respectively.
According to its tipped internal specs, the HONOR Magic V could be among the swiftest foldables on the market. Digital Chat Station believes the phone could launch with theSnapdragon 8 Gen 1. This would give it a notable leg up over its foldable rivals. There’s no word on battery size, but 66W charging is said to feature.
As for the phone’s imaging smarts, a 50MP camera reportedly leads the line. It’s unclear if that shooter will use the Sony IMX700 as seen on theHONOR Magic 3 Pro Plus. If you were hoping for a periscope camera, you might be left disappointed. The existence of a telephoto shooter’s also unclear.
Finally, the HONOR Magic V is said to debut withAndroid 12out of the box.
HONOR has yet to announce a concrete launch date for its first foldable, but judging by the gathering rumors and teasers, we should expect its arrival shortly.
