Honor Magic V3 5G 7.92'' 16GB RAM 512GB ROM Foldable - Green

The V2 was the thinnest of its kind when it arrived, and now so too is the V3, at just 4.4mm in tablet form or 9.3mm when it's posing as a bar phone. It's also gone lighter still, at 226g, and that's with an added wireless charging coil, and a bump in battery capacity - is it engineers working at Honor or is it miracle workers? Rhetorics aside, the weight and size reductions come courtesy of improved materials, at least partially.

The Magic V3's panels and build are particularly tough, Honor insists, and they even had us torture a unit to see where it breaks. There's also an IPX8 rating that takes things further than the standard's minimum requirements. Cameras on foldables tend to lag behind industry-leading efforts on 'plain' smartphones, and the Magic V3 is no exception. Still, this new generation greatly improves upon the zoom camera, lowering the number of trade-offs you need to make in order to have 300 sq. cm of screen estate in your pocket instead of just 100-ish.

The Magic V3 ships in a proper full-size black box with a complete set of accessories - a premium product with a fitting treatment. Especially nice is the included protective solution - the soft-feeling faux leather snap-on back cover can turn into a stand thanks to the swing-out octagonal camera ring. There's also a frame-like piece to attach to the cover portion, with adhesive strips to ensure it stays into place.
