On the evening of January 10, Honor released the first folding screen mobile phone Honor Magic V, although the new machine has already had spoilers before, but the conference still brought us a lot of highlights.
In terms of hardware, Honor Magic V is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 flagship processor, before there are also some flagship new machines using this processor, Snapdragon 8 is based on Samsung 4nm process, using Arm V9 architecture, equipped with a Cortex-X2 3.0GHz super core, three Cortex-A710 2.50GHz large core and four Cortex-A510 1.80GHz small core, graphics chip for Adreno The 730 is currently the most powerful 5G Soc, which is also the world's first folding screen mobile phone using Snapdragon 8 chip.
In addition to the flagship Snapdragon chip, the screen of the Honor Magic V is also excellent. The honor magic V has an outer screen size of 6.45 inches, a pixel density of 431ppi, a screen ratio of up to 90%, an aspect ratio of 21:9, a maximum brightness of 1000 nit, and supports a 120Hz refresh rate. The outer screen supports 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, 1 billion colors and HDR10+ technology, making the screen color display more realistic, delicate and natural. After the inner screen is expanded, you can get a large 7.9-inch screen with an aspect ratio of 10:9, a pixel density of 381ppi, a maximum brightness of 800 nit, and a 90Hz refresh rate. Both the inner and outer screens support 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming. At the press conference, Zhao Ming compared the Glory Magic V mobile phone and the iPad mini, and from the perspective of the size, brightness, touch rate and reflectivity of the screen, he claimed that the Glory Magic V was better than the iPad mini picture quality and the screen parameters were better.
Honor also considered the durability of folding screen phones, thus using a curved nano glass-ceramic process. This process can increase the anti-fall resistance of the screen under the premise of ensuring slimness, and the mobile phone can be seen unscathed when it is dropped twice in a row at the press conference.
As a key component of the folding screen, hinge design is particularly important. In terms of core hinges, Honor Magic V pioneered ultra-thin suspended water droplet hinges, which ensure slimness while minimizing screen creases. In order to ensure accuracy and strength, Honor Magic V uses aerospace grade materials, including zirconium-based liquid metals, the main body uses a large number of high-strength carbon fibers, and the hinged spindle also uses high-strength titanium alloys.
The back of the Honor Magic V features a three-body star ring camera design that includes a 50-megapixel wide-angle lens, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens (122 degrees) and a 50-megapixel spectral-enhanced lens. In addition, both internal and external screens are equipped with a 42-megapixel front-facing lens.
In terms of battery life, honor Magic V has a built-in 4750mAh large battery, equipped with 66W super fast charge, charged to 50% in 15 minutes, and adopts symmetrical dual speakers.
Honor Magic V also supports independent security memory chips, plus dual TEE security systems for flagship data protection. Add "Lost Mode", even if the phone is lost, you can also remotely lock the SIM card of the phone, refuse to force the shutdown, and hide the incoming call message.
The software is not inferior, and the Magic V is equipped with the Magic UI 6.0 system. The Magic Live Smart Engine focuses on scene awareness, user understanding, and knowledge graphs. For example, when the user is waiting, the user can be reminded in real time to start boarding; in the subway station, accurate position perception can be carried out, and when approaching the subway station, the mobile phone will automatically recommend the corresponding subway line. This kind of personalized recommendation, as the user uses it for a long time, the mobile phone can automatically learn the user's habits, and the Magic UI will become a customized system for you personally.
In terms of price, honor Magic V has three colors: titanium empty silver, burning orange and bright black. The 12+256GB version is priced at 9999 yuan, and the 12+512GB version is priced at 10999 yuan. In addition, there are smart window bracket protective covers priced at 299 yuan, and folding mobile phone car brackets cost 399 yuan. The new machine will open pre-sale on January 10 and officially go on sale on January 18.
