Verdict

Honor skipped the V4 iteration and put out Magic V5 – the thinnest FOLD phone in the world. At 8.8mm thickness, the USB-C port barely fits in and to make future foldables any thinner, the device will need to skip the USB port. Honor also added dust protection, increased water resistance, put in a bigger battery and improved the back cameras.

PROs
2025 thinnest foldable, 217g light and very strong build, fast SD 8 Elite with UFS4.0 performance, 24hr endurance from 5820mAh Si-C battery with sub-1hr 66W charging (50W wireless), >400ppi LTPO AMOLED screens with Dolby Vision, IP59 dust and water protection, great pics from 50MP OIS PDAF main + 64MP periscope tele + 50MP AF ultrawide, 7 years of OS updates, stable DeX-like desktop replacement feature and a fast USB-C 3.1 with Display Port tech
CONs
only a day of battery life, no AF on either 20MP selfie nor on the periscope tele (!), no SDmemory slot (updated Aug 30, 2025)
