Unprecedented Slimness and Robust Design

One of the most striking features of the Honor Magic V5 is its skinny profile. When unfolded, the device measures a mere 4.1mm, making it one of the slimmest foldables on the market. Even when folded, it maintains an impressive 8.8mm thickness, showcasing HONOR’s engineering prowess. This svelte design doesn’t compromise on durability, as the Magic V5 boasts an IP58 & IP59 rating, offering a strong degree of protection against dust and water. Adding to its resilience is the HONOR Super Armoured Inner Screen, promising enhanced protection for the foldable display, all for 217g with the thinnest and lightest foldable phone to date.

A Visual Masterpiece: The Immersive Display

The Magic V5 features a stunning 7.95-inch OLED display that offers an incredibly immersive viewing experience. With a sharp 2352*2172 pixels resolution and a remarkable 403 PPI pixel density, content appears crisp and vibrant. The display supports 1.07 billion colours and a 100% DCI-P3 wide colour gamut, ensuring true-to-life colour reproduction.

For incredibly smooth visuals, the screen boasts a refresh rate of up to 120Hz with LTPO technology, allowing for dynamic adjustment of the refresh rate to optimise battery life. Perhaps most impressively, the display reaches an astonishing peak brightness of up to 5000 nits, making it exceptionally legible even in bright outdoor conditions. To further enhance productivity and creative possibilities, the Magic V5 also offers stylus support.IMG 20250630 143633 IMG 20250630 143623 IMG 20250630 143617 IMG 20250630 143611 IMG 20250630 143559
