HONOR Magic V5 Set to Redefine Foldables in Malaysia This 15 July: Slimmest Design, Powerful Features, and No Compromise

HONOR is set to launch its most revolutionary foldable smartphone yet the HONOR Magic V5 this coming 15 July in Malaysia. The highly anticipated device has already stirred a wave of excitement online with its first-look reveal, and for good reason. With a body measuring just 8.8mm when folded, the HONOR Magic V5 claims the title of the world’s slimmest foldable, all without sacrificing power, camera quality, or durability. It is designed to surpass its predecessor, the HONOR Magic V3, in every major aspect.

One of the standout design achievements of the HONOR Magic V5 is its remarkable slimness. Measuring thinner than a 50 cent coin or just three stacked bank cards, the device redefines portability for foldable phones. Unlike traditional foldables that can feel bulky or awkward in pockets and clutches, the Magic V5 feels lightweight and natural in the hand, making it ideal for users on the go. Whether carried in a compact handbag or held throughout the day, this device delivers both form and function with elegance.

Despite its incredibly slim profile, the HONOR Magic V5 comes packed with a powerful 5820mAh HONOR Silicon-Carbon Battery. This industry-leading battery is ultra-slim almost the thickness of a business card but offers full-day power even under intensive usage. Compared to competitors, the Magic V5 provides superior battery capacity, ensuring you stay connected longer. With support for 66W Wired HONOR SuperCharge, the device charges to full in just 40 minutes. Users can also take advantage of 50W wireless charging, offering flexibility for charging on the move. HONOR’s E2 Power Enhanced Chip optimises energy usage in real time, allowing extended battery life whether you’re streaming, gaming, or multitasking.

On the photography front, the HONOR Magic V5 delivers flagship-level capabilities with its 64MP Periscope Telephoto Camera that supports up to 100X digital zoom. This makes it the best tele-lens offering in the foldable segment to date. Users can explore AI Super Zoom, a new AI imaging tool that maintains sharpness and clarity even at extreme zoom levels. Whether capturing the peak of the KL Tower or faraway landscapes, the Magic V5 delivers professional-grade detail. The AI Enhanced Portrait mode intelligently adjusts background blur, lighting and clarity, providing studio-quality portraits effortlessly. These AI tools are designed to help users achieve powerful, vibrant images without technical effort.

Further enhancing the photography experience, the device also includes AI-based editing tools such as AI Cutout, AI Eraser, AI Outpainting, and AI Upscale. These features allow users to retouch photos, remove unwanted elements, expand frame composition, and boost resolution all from within the phone, without needing third-party apps or software.

Durability is another area where the HONOR Magic V5 makes a bold statement. The device features the industry’s strongest inner screen, reinforced by Non-Newtonian Fluid technology. This innovation offers shock absorption upon impact, ensuring greater protection from drops and damage. Moreover, an intelligent AI Foreign Object Detection system alerts users when even the tiniest particleslike sand enter the screen hinge area, helping prevent internal damage before it occurs.

The outer display is no less impressive. Crafted using HONOR’s Anti-Scratch NanoCrystal Shield, it offers exceptional scratch and drop resistance. The carbon fiber back is made from Aerospace Special Fiber, capable of withstanding impacts up to 40 times stronger than standard materials. Users can confidently place their devices in bags or pockets with keys and other sharp items, knowing the Magic V5 is built to endure.

Hinge strength is a major concern in foldables, and HONOR has addressed this with its Super Steel Hinge. Demonstrated live during a pre-launch media event, the Magic V5 withstood the weight of a 35kg dumbbell without bending. The hinge is engineered to last through 500,000 folds, which translates to around 100 folds per day for 13 years providing long-term peace of mind for business users and power users alike.

To complement its robust engineering, the HONOR Magic V5 also comes with IP58 and IP59 dust and water resistance certifications, offering strong protection against splashes, particles, and everyday wear. These ratings reduce the risk of common screen issues such as dead pixels or green lines caused by micro-damage.

Malaysian consumers can catch the full reveal of the HONOR Magic V5 during its official launch livestream on 15 July 2025 at 2PM, hosted on HONOR Malaysia’s official Facebook page. The event will unveil the phone’s complete specifications, pricing details, and exclusive launch promotions, including limited-time free gifts for early buyers.
