The Honor Magic V2 marks an epoch in foldable smartphone engineering, shattering previous form factor boundaries by achieving a sub-1cm folded profile (9.9mm) and an impossibly slender 4.7mm unfolded thickness without sacrificing computational speed or battery longevity. At the core of the device is Qualcomm's overclocked 4nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Leading Version octa-core platform, featuring a prime Cortex-X3 core operating at 3.36 GHz, four Cortex-A715/A710 performance cores at 2.8 GHz, and three Cortex-A510 efficiency cores at 2.0 GHz, coupled with the Adreno 740 GPU. Supported by a huge 16GB of high-speed LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of fast UFS 4.0 internal storage, it delivers desktop-grade multitasking, split-screen split-tasking, and responsive 3D gaming on MagicOS 8 based on Android 13 with full Google Mobile Services support. Heat is dissipated through an ultra-thin Bionic VC cooling architecture.
Visuals are showcased on dual class-leading displays: an expansive 7.92-inch Foldable LTPO OLED interior screen (2156 x 2344 pixels) with an 88.5% screen-to-body ratio, and an everyday-practical 6.43-inch LTPO OLED exterior cover display (1060 x 2376 pixels) shielded by second-generation Nanocrystal Glass. Both screens deliver fluid 1Hz to 120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rates, 1.07 billion colors, HDR10+, active stylus pen support across both panels, and up to 2500 nits of peak exterior brightness. Prioritizing visual health, both screens incorporate world-first 3840Hz risk-free PWM dimming certified by TÜV Rheinland to eliminate eye strain at low brightness levels. Biometrics are handled seamlessly via a fast side-mounted capacitive fingerprint scanner integrated into the power button.
In the camera department, the smartphone is equipped with a versatile triple rear camera module headlined by a 50 MP primary wide camera (f/1.9 aperture, 1/1.49" sensor size, PDAF, Laser AF, hardware OIS). It is complemented by a 50 MP 122-degree ultra-wide angle camera (f/2.0) with autofocus for macro shots and a 20 MP telephoto lens (f/2.4, OIS) offering 2.5x optical zoom and up to 40x digital zoom. The rear camera system features Millisecond Falcon Capture and records 10-bit 4K UHD video at up to 60fps with gyro-EIS, HDR10+, and OIS. For selfies and video meetings, both the cover and folding screens feature independent 16 MP punch-hole cameras (f/2.2) capable of recording 4K video.
A monumental engineering achievement of the Magic V2 is its 5000 mAh dual-cell Silicon-Carbon battery, providing exceptional energy density in a razor-thin battery footprint. It is supported by 66W wired Honor SuperCharge, alongside 5W reverse wired charging via OTG. Constructed with an aerospace-grade Titanium Hinge certified by SGS for over 400,000 smooth folds, the phone provides long-lasting structural durability. Rounding out this premium package are dual stereo loudspeakers with DTS:X Ultra sound, an infrared (IR) blaster, full-function NFC, high-speed USB Type-C 3.1 with DisplayPort 1.2 video output, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and Dual 5G SIM standby connectivity.
