Is the Honor Magic V5<\/a> the thinnest horizontal foldable on the market right now? Honor says so<\/a>, but the more important question is whether you care \u2013 thinnest or not, the V5 has a lot going for it. It already launched internationally<\/a> and will debut in Europe<\/a> in less than two weeks. Do you plan on buying one?<\/p>\n

Depending on which color you pick, the Magic V5 can be as thin as 8.8mm when folded (4.1mm unfolded) and as light as 217g. That\u2019s 10g less than an iPhone 16 Pro Max and 1g less than a Galaxy S25 Ultra.<\/p>\n

If you use it as a simple bar phone, the V5 offers a 6.43\u201d LTPO cover display with just under 1080p+ resolution and a very high peak brightness of 5,000 nits. This is protected by Honor NanoCrystal Shield glass. The phone itself is rated IP58\/IP59 meaning it is dust protected and is rated for submersion and water jets.<\/p>\n

But the star of the show is the 7.95\u201d LTPO display inside, which offers the utility of a small tablet in your pocket. Unlike Samsung, Honor chose to retain stylus support.<\/p>\n

The Honor Magic V5 boasts a large 5,820mAh Si\/C battery for the global market with 66W wired and 50W wireless charging. These numbers are a good deal higher than what the Z Fold7 has to offer (4,400mAh, 25W\/15W).<\/p>\n

The Magic also stands out with its camera system \u2013 a 50MP main is joined by a 64MP 3x\/70mm telephoto and 50MP ultra-wide. The Samsung has a big 200MP 1\/1.3\u201d sensor in its main, but its telephoto (10MP 3x\/67mm) and ultra-wide (12MP) cameras are fairly basic.<\/p>\n

The V5 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and runs Android 15 with MagicOS 9 out of the box. Check out our unboxing and hands-on<\/a> for a closer look at the Magic V5.<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t know the European price yet, but the Honor Magic V5 costs MYR 7,000 in Malaysia \u2013 around $1,650. For comparison, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is MYR 8,400, while the Oppo Find N5 is MYR 8,000. The vivo X Fold5 goes for MYR 7,000. The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is coming next month too, but there\u2019s no price info on it yet.<\/p>\n
