The Honor Magic Price in India

Imagine holding a phone that folds open like a book but feels as light as your everyday slab phone. That’s the Honor Magic V5 in action. After using it for over two months, I can say it’s one of the thinnest foldables out there, packed with a huge 5,820 mAh battery and pen support on both screens.

The Promise of the Honor Magic V5

This device pushes foldable tech forward. It keeps things slim without skipping key features. You get real-world testing here, straight from daily use.

Initial Impressions: Unboxing and Color Options

The box opens simple. Inside, you find the phone, a SIM tool, and a USB-C cable. My pre-release unit came this way, but retail boxes might change by region. Pick from four colors: Ivory White, Black, Dawn Gold, or Reddish Brown. The Ivory White version stands out as the slimmest. It uses special materials to hit that edge.

Section 1: Design, Dimensions, and Unmatched Portability
Featherlight Construction and Slim Profile

The Honor Magic V5 closes to just 8.8 mm thick in Ivory White. Other colors sit at about 9 mm. It weighs only 217 grams in white, or 222 grams elsewhere. This beats many non-foldable phones. You slip it in your pocket with ease. No bulk holds you back. Feel the difference when you grip it. It matches regular phones in comfort. Honor nailed the yearly slim-down trend here.

Unfolded Thinness and Visual Impact

Open it up, and it measures 4.1 mm thick. That’s razor-thin. The USB-C port barely fits, showing how far they pushed the limits. You can’t go much thinner without ditching ports. The back sports a big circular camera bump. Honor calls it the AI Falcon system. It looks bold but works well. The design ties into Honor’s style. You notice the clean lines right away.

Ergonomics and Desk Stability

Weight spreads even across the body. It balances on your finger like a pro. No tippy feel at the top. Set it on a desk, and it stays flat. Other foldables rock back and forth. Not this one. The camera bump even helps. It gives your finger a spot to rest when closed. Overall, it acts like a normal phone. You forget it’s foldable most days.

Section 2: Durability Redefined: Protection Meets Innovation
Leading Water and Dust Resistance

Honor Magic V5 holds an IP58 and IP59 rating. That’s top-tier for foldables. IP59 means it takes high-pressure water jets. Run it under the tap without worry. Water won’t harm it. Few other foldables match this level. Dust stays out too. You use it outdoors with peace of mind. This rating sets it apart.

The Ironclad Hinge and Inner Display Protection

A carbon fiber panel guards the inner screen. It adds strength without weight. The Honor Super Steel Hinge shines here. This hinge has 2,300 MPa tensile strength. That’s a measure of how tough it pulls. It lasts through countless opens and closes. You trust it for daily flips. No creaks or wobbles show up. Honor built it to endure.

Record-Breaking Strength Verification

The hinge earned a Guinness World Record. It lifted 104 kg once. That’s the most for any foldable phone. Don’t try this at home, though. It proves the build quality. You get years of reliable use. The Honor Anti-scratch Nano Crystal Shield helps too. It boosts scratch resistance by 15 times. Your screens stay pristine longer.

Section 3: Dual OLED Displays: Brightness, Comfort, and Dual Pen Support
Peak Brightness and Color Accuracy Across Both Screens

Both screens use OLED tech. They hit 5,000 nits peak brightness. Colors cover 100% DCI-P3 gamut. The cover screen measures 6.43 inches. It feels wide and normal when closed. Typing comes easy on it. The main screen spans 7.95 inches. LTPO tech runs both at 120 Hz. Smooth scrolls every time.

Cutting-Edge Eye Comfort Technology

PWM dimming reaches 4,320 Hz on both displays. This cuts flicker in low light. Your eyes thank you at night. I use my phone in bed often. This makes it less straining than others. Honor leads in eye-friendly features. Dark rooms feel kinder. No headaches after long sessions. It’s a small tweak with big payoff.

Unprecedented Dual-Screen Pen Functionality

Pen support works on the cover and main screens. Buy the Honor Magic Pen separate. It pairs with V2 and V3 models too. Draw or note on either side. No other foldable offers this on both. Thinner designs elsewhere dropped the feature. You jot ideas closed or open. It boosts productivity. Creatives will love the flexibility.

Section 4: Performance and Multitasking Powerhouse
Top-Tier Internal Specifications

Snapdragon 8 Elite powers the Honor Magic V5. It pairs with 16 GB LPDDR5X RAM. Storage hits 512 GB UFS 4.1. Games run buttery smooth. Multitasking handles heavy loads. I pushed it for months without hiccups. Daily tasks fly by. No lags interrupt your flow. It’s built for power users.

Mastering Productivity with Multiflex

Tap the dock icon for Multiflex. It splits the screen quick. Choose two apps side by side. Or go for three windows. They fit neat across the display. Switch between them fast. Picture hunting hotels. Open three apps at once. Compare options without hassle. Link it to Google Gemini. Share your screen live. Ask it to pick the best deal.

Software Ecosystem and AI Integration (Magic OS 9.0.1)

It ships with Android 15 and Magic OS 9.0.1. Updates promise seven years in UK and EU. That’s long support for a foldable. AI ties in deep. Features like call translation work on-device. It handles many languages for travel. Deep fake detection spots fakes in calls. Stay safe from tricks. Software feels fresh and smart.

Section 5: The AI-Driven Camera System and Software Experience
AI Falcon Camera Hardware Overview

The setup includes a 50 MP main camera at f/1.6. A 50 MP ultrawide joins it. Plus, a 64 MP periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom.

They squeezed in the periscope despite the slim body. Shots capture wide scenes or close details. Quality holds up in thin design.

Two 20 MP selfies sit on each screen. Use rear cams for better group shots. Preview on the cover screen.

Revolutionary AI Super Zoom Capabilities

AI Super Zoom kicks in past 3x. It stretches to 50x or 100x with smarts. You need internet for the boost. Turn it on, and details pop. Off, results look soft. It’s a game for far shots. Test it on birds or signs. The difference stuns. AI makes zoom usable.

Selfie Quality and Advanced AI Editing Tools

Selfies come sharp from both fronts. The wide aperture blurs backgrounds. Great for solo pics, watch groups. AI motion capture grabs action. Editing tools shine bright. AI Razor removes unwanted bits clean. Try AI Outpainting. Pinch to expand backgrounds. It fills gaps smart. AI Image to Video wows most. Pick any photo. It turns static to motion with Google’s V2 model. A still landscape becomes a drone flyover. Free trials limit it. Results feel real.

Section 6: The Battery Advantage and Charging Speeds
Silicon Carbon Technology for Massive Capacity

The 5,820 mAh battery towers over rivals. Silicon carbon tech packs it in tight. Honor pioneered this for foldables. I got top battery life in tests. It outlasts other thin foldables. All-day use, no sweat. Heavy gaming? It still holds. You charge less often. This sets the Honor Magic V5 apart.

Efficiency Chip and Rapid Wired Charging

The Honor E2 chip manages power smart. It’s a four-part system. It boosts efficiency and health. 66W wired charging fills it fast. Reach 50% in 16 minutes. Full in 43 minutes. Quick top-ups fit busy days. No long waits. Keep going without pause.

Wireless Charging Support

  • 50W wireless works too. Drop it on a pad. Charges quick without cables.
  • Convenience adds up. Travel light. Battery stays strong.

Key Takeaways: Why It Stands Out

The Honor Magic V5 blends thin design with real power. Its silicon carbon battery leads the pack. AI tools like super zoom and image-to-video add fresh tricks. Pen support on both screens seals the deal. You get more than basic foldable perks. It rivals slab phones while folding open. Durability and displays impress too. This thinnest foldable redefines what you expect.

Pricing and Availability Call to Action

It starts at about ₹1,07,990 in the India. That’s competitive for the specs. Check Honor’s site for deals. What do you think of the Honor Magic V5? Would you grab one? Share your thoughts in the comments.
