Introduction to the Honor Magic V3
One of the thinnest foldable smartphones available on the market, the Honor Magic V3, made its debut in China earlier this month. Although the Chinese handset maker said the phone will be released in other markets, no launch timeframes were revealed at that time. However, this week Honor unveiled its lineup for this year’s IFA trade fair, and the Magic V3 is among the products the company plans to introduce to international audiences.
IFA 2023 Announcement
The foldable device will be accompanied by two other Honor devices: the MagicPad 2 and MagicBook Art 14. All three Honor devices will be formally introduced on September 5, one day before IFA starts. While it’s safe to say that all three products will retain their specs sheet revealed when they were launched in China, pricing for international markets remains an area of speculation.
Specifications of the Honor Magic V3
At just 9.2mm, the Honor Magic V3 is an incredibly thin foldable. Despite its slender profile, the phone is also very powerful thanks to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor packed inside. It’s powered by a substantial 5,150 mAh battery.
The foldable boasts an impressive triple camera setup, consisting of 50MP main, 50MP periscope telephoto, and 40MP ultra-wide sensors. Additionally, there’s a 20-megapixel selfie camera on the front side. The device sports a stunning 7.92-inch AMOLED display with a 2156 x 2344 pixels resolution, Dolby Vision support, 120Hz refresh rate, and 1800 nits peak brightness. It also features a secondary 6.43-inch OLED cover display with 1060 x 2376 pixels resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 5000 nits peak brightness.
Variants and Expected Pricing
The Magic V3 comes in different versions based on the amount of memory: 12/256GB, 16/512GB, and 16GB/1TB RAM. Honor hasn’t yet revealed how much the Magic V3 will cost in Europe and other regions. However, given that the previous models were priced around €2000, a similar price base is expected for the new foldable.
Conclusion
The Honor Magic V3 is set to make a significant impact in the foldable smartphone market. With its impressive hardware, sleek design, and advanced features, it is a device worth anticipating at the IFA 2023. Stay tuned for more updates on its global release and pricing.
