The future is here, and it’s folding. Leading smart devices provider HONOR Philippines has officially announced the arrival of its newest foldable, the HONOR Magic V5, on September 5. This isn’t just another phone; it’s a statement. It’s about remarkable durability and setting a new industry benchmark for what a foldable can be.
For a long time, foldable phones were considered a bit fragile—a cool concept, but maybe not ready for the rigors of everyday life. But as HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng put it, “Since the rise of foldables in 2019, it has undergone several waves of innovation, evolving from thick, crease-prone designs to sleeker, more practical form factors.” He highlights HONOR’s dedication to pushing boundaries, noting that the Magic V5 “exemplifies this progress, setting a new industry benchmark as the world’s thinnest foldable and redefining what slim truly means in the foldable category.”
HONOR has managed to engineer a phone that is both incredibly thin and unbelievably strong. The secret? The improved Super Steel Hinge, which is not only lighter but also provides a tighter fold, resulting in a phone that feels as compact and practical as a traditional bar phone. With a tensile strength of 2300 MPa, this hinge is designed to be tough, supporting the foldable display while maintaining a thin, compact design.

So, why is the HONOR Magic V5 a compelling smartphone upgrade? Let’s take a look at the announced features that make it stand out from the crowd:
- Engineering a Slim and Strong Form: The Magic V5 is a marvel of design. It’s crafted to be the world’s thinnest foldable, making it incredibly pocketable and comfortable to hold. Despite its slim profile, it doesn’t compromise on durability, thanks to the new Super Steel Hinge and its high tensile strength. This is a foldable you can trust.
- A Camera System That Delivers: The HONOR Magic V5 is equipped with a flagship-level camera system. It includes a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultrawide shooter, and a 64MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. This versatile setup, combined with HONOR’s advanced image tuning, ensures you can capture stunning photos in any lighting scenario—from wide-angle landscapes to distant subjects.
- Dual Displays with Unmatched Clarity: Both the inner and outer displays are top-tier. The large 7.95-inch inner screen and the 6.43-inch outer screen are LTPO OLED panels with a stunning 5000 nits peak brightness. They also feature a 120Hz refresh rate and a host of eye-care technologies, making for a seamless and comfortable viewing experience whether you’re working, gaming, or just browsing.
- Power That Lasts: Despite its slim design, the Magic V5 houses a large 5,820mAh Silicon-Carbon Battery. This, coupled with an AI Power Management System, means you get extended battery life, freeing you from the constant search for a power outlet. It also supports 66W wired and 50W wireless charging, so you can power up quickly and get back to what you’re doing.
- IP58 Dust and Water Resistance: The Magic V5 is not only thin and strong but also built to withstand the elements. With an IP58 dust and water resistance rating, it offers peace of mind against accidental spills and splashes, a significant step forward for foldable phone durability.
This is your chance to own #MyFirstFoldable and experience a device that combines cutting-edge technology with practical, everyday use.
