HONOR has just confirmed that the Magic V2 foldable will launch on September 1. This device will become official as part of IFA 2023 in Berlin. As a reminder, the Magic V2 did already launch, but in China only.
The global variant of the HONOR Magic V2 is coming, as the launch date has just been revealed
That phone managed to get a lot of attention, despite not launching globally just yet. Why? Well, HONOR managed to achieve something great here. The Magic V2 became the thinnest foldable smartphone on the market.
The Magic V2 is only 4.7-4.8mm thick when unfolded, and 9.9-10.1mm thick when folded, depending on the model. On top of that, the phone weighs only 231 or 237 grams, once again, depending on the model, as both glass and eco leather variants got announced. The eco-leather one is lighter.
The global variant of the phone will offer the same exact design, but we still don’t know what variants will be available globally. The company’s press event will kick off at 10 AM CET/ 9 AM BST / 4 AM EST / 1 AM PST in Berlin, in case you’re interested.
Two HONOR foldables are coming, actually
That is not all, though. HONOR says that two foldable smartphones will become official at IFA. The first is the Magic V2, while the other is a mystery. If we had to guess, we’d say that HONOR’s first-ever clamshell foldable is coming.
We didn’t really hear much about that phone, so it really is a mystery. If that is, in fact, what we’re getting. We’ll just have to wait and see what HONOR is preparing for us, and who knows, perhaps that other phone leaks ahead of launch too.
All in all, HONOR will have a rather considerable presence at IFA 2023, and add two more foldable devices to the global market, which is surely appreciated. The more competition is present out there, the better for the end consumer.
