HONOR’s latest foldable phone, the Magic V5, made an impressive debut during its first weekend of sales in Malaysia, drawing overwhelming consumer interest to HONOR Experience Stores nationwide. The standout response came from the newly launched HONOR Experience Store and Service Centre in Mid Valley Southkey, Johor Bahru, which recorded the highest number of visitors. With its ultra-slim design, powerful new features, RM400 trade-in rebate, and exclusive free gifts worth RM2,697, the Magic V5 has quickly become one of the most in-demand foldable smartphones on the market.
This heightened interest aligned with the grand opening of HONOR’s largest overseas Experience Store and Service Centre on 26 July. The event drew a large crowd eager to witness the occasion, which featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony officiated by Justin Li, President of HONOR South Pacific, and Lee Fook Sin, Director of The Hello Station.
During the launch, Justin Li expressed pride in Malaysia being the first country outside of China to host HONOR’s largest Experience Store and Service Centre. He highlighted that HONOR’s expansion in Malaysia has been remarkable, noting the opening of their 100th store at KLCC just a month prior. The new flagship outlet in Johor Bahru represents a major milestone for the brand, offering customers a premium retail and after-sales experience. Li also shared his delight in the positive reception of the Magic V5 among Malaysians, emphasizing HONOR’s strong commitment to customer satisfaction.
To commemorate the launch, HONOR treated visitors to special deals, lucky draws, and blind box giveaways. The store also hosted a variety of activities including an AI workshop on the Magic V5, a durability showcase, and a teardown exhibit that revealed the phone’s thin silicon-carbon battery and inner components. Guests enjoyed an art session with a local artist who drew live portraits. The new store is designed to merge retail, education, and after-sales service in one location, setting a new benchmark for HONOR’s global retail standards.
One of the first customers, Farid, shared that he was impressed by the Magic V5’s slim profile and powerful features, particularly its long-lasting battery, fast charging, and AI-powered multitasking capabilities. He mentioned that as someone who uses a smartphone for daily work, the Magic V5 perfectly enhances his productivity. Inspired by the flagship store’s grand opening he saw on Facebook, he visited the store to purchase the phone immediately.
The HONOR Magic V5 is available in a 16GB RAM and 512GB storage configuration and comes in four elegant color options: Dawn Gold, Ivory White, Silk Brown, and Black. Each purchase includes complimentary gifts worth RM2,697, which consist of HONOR CHOICE Earbuds Clip, a one-year crack protection plan, and a two-year quality assurance.
