HONOR today has showcased its strategic vision for the future of smartphones at IFA 2023 with two new foldable smartphones – the HONOR Magic V2 and HONOR V Purse concept foldable.
During its keynote session entitled “Unfold Tomorrow” HONOR CEO George Zhao outlined the brand’s commitment to making foldable smartphones mainstream, with its latest human-centric innovations including the lightest and slimmest inward foldable smartphone of HONOR, the Magic V2.
The brand also unveiled the HONOR V Purse, a new concept that reimagines a foldable smartphone as a wearable, fashion-forward purse.
Honor V Purse – Fashion Forward Foldable
The HONOR V Purse seamlessly transforms the foldable smartphone into the
ultimate phy-gital fashion statement, thanks to a series of customizable always-on
displays (AODs) that mimic a handbag design, including design elements such as
chains, feathers and tassels that react and sway with the smartphone as it moves.
The concept phone is also compatible with a choice of interchangeable straps and
chains, which clip onto the hinge to allow the smartphone to be worn effortlessly over one’s shoulder like an ordinary purse or handbag.
Honor Magic V2 – World’s Slimmest Foldable Yet
During IFA 2023, HONOR also showcased its new flagship foldable smartphone, the HONOR Magic V2, for the first time ever at a global event, redefining industry benchmarks with significant improvements across form factor, battery, display and user experience.
The HONOR Magic V2 is the lightest and thinnest inward foldable smartphone that HONOR has introduced to date, weighing only 231g and measuring just 9.9mm thick when folded. It features a new generation of Silicon-Carbon-Dual-Battery with an average thickness of just 2.72mm, which achieves a high capacity of up to 5,000mAh in the space of a thin and light foldable flagship body.
In addition to the thin and lightweight, the HONOR Magic V2 features a first-of-its-kind Super-light Titanium Hinge and a new HONOR’s proprietary steel, providing added robustness and durability to the hinge mechanism. The HONOR Magic V2 also earns the coveted durability certification from SGS, by enabling the hinge to withstand more than 400,000 folds, ensuring a lifespan of up to ten years for folding 100 times a day.
The HONOR Magic V2 features a triple rear camera setup that includes 50MP Main Camera (f/1.9), a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera (f/2.0), and a 20MP Telephoto Camera (f/2.4). The front-facing dual camera setup features two 16MP Cameras (f/2.2).
Incorporating human-centric innovation, the HONOR Magic V2 also supports industry-leading 3840Hz PWM Dimming technology minimizes eye strain, ensuring comfortable viewing even during extended use.
