The Slimmest, Lightest Inward-Folding Smartphone to Date

At just 8.8mm thin and weighing 217g, the HONOR Magic V5 sets a new benchmark in foldable portability. Engineered through HONOR’s cutting-edge AI-powered manufacturing system, it offers a nearly crease-free fold that elevates the tactile experience with each use.

Durability is another key highlight.
