Last night, Honor's first folding screen phone, Honor Magic V, was released. It is honor's first folding screen product and the industry's first folding screen product to use a new generation of Snapdragon 8 5G mobile platform.
Honor Magic V adopts an inner folding form that can better protect the screen and take into account daily use, and provides a dual-screen design of external screen and inner screen. The inner screen measures 7.9 inches and has a resolution of 2272x1984. It's the same size as the iPad mini 5, but at a scale of 10.3:9, it's closer to a square.
The global maximum brightness of this screen is 800nits, and the peak maximum brightness can reach 1000nits. With display technologies such as 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, 10-bit color depth display, 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, and HDR 10+, the actual look and feel of this inner screen is really good.
Honor also covered this inner screen with a magnetron nano optical film, so that it achieved a screen reflectivity of less than 1.5%, the official said that its screen reflectivity is lower than the iPad mini 6, after naked eye observation is indeed better than the iPad mini 6 in my hand and the 11-inch iPad Pro control is better. The lower reflectivity allows the Honor Magic V to effectively reduce the reflective brightness of the screen, so that users can see the contents of the screen clearly in places where the sun is stronger.
Honor Magic V's outer screen size is 6.45 inches, resolution 2560x1080, ratio is 21.3:9, refresh rate 120Hz, more suitable for daily use. The pixel density of this screen also reached 431 PPI, combined with 10bit color depth, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and HDR10+ display technologies and specifications, so that the Honor Magic V in the folded state, can also achieve the experience of the rigid flagship phone.
In addition to the high quality of the internal and external screens themselves, honor Magic V also uses aerospace-grade materials to create an ultra-thin suspended water droplet hinge. Its ultra-thin and ultra-light features not only help the Honor Magic V control the thickness and weight of the whole machine, but also make it have a better folding experience.
Fully unfolded, the Honor Magic V's control over creases is excellent. Except for deliberately touching this area, there is basically no feeling. Coupled with the asymmetrical dual-cell design, the Honor Magic V has a more balanced distribution of the weight of the whole machine, which is very comfortable to hold with both one hand and two hands.
In the case of complete closure, the Honor Magic V achieves almost seamless performance, and the middle frame part of the folding hinge after the product is closed is also very smooth and straight, which fully avoids the problem of some hunchbacks in the hinge of similar products. At the same time, it achieves a folded body thickness of 14.3mm, an unfolded body thickness of 6.7mm, and a body weight of 293g. As a folding screen product that allows you to have a large-screen experience at any time, this weight and thickness specification is still very advanced in the industry.
As the first folding screen product to use the Snapdragon 8 5G mobile platform, honor Magic V is equipped with a Magic UI 6.0 system based on the underlying Android 12. With OS Turbo X and GPU Turbo X blessing, it has no problem meeting daily use and game scenes.
Finally, let's talk about the image system of Honor Magic V, which has three rear-facing multi-camera fusion computing cameras composed of three 50-megapixel cameras, namely wide-angle main camera, ultra-wide camera and spectral enhancement camera. In addition, both screens are inserted into the 42-megapixel front camera by digging holes, which can meet the needs of users in different scenarios.
After a period of use, I think that although the Honor Magic V is honor's first folding screen product, the performance and completion are good, and it also uses the latest flagship hardware combination, which brings good performance. After that, we will have a more detailed experience of the Honor Magic V, especially the large-screen interaction and smart split-screen function, if you are interested in this product, you may wish to pay attention to the follow-up content.
