captain fokou, 25 Dec 2021I see you're a man of culture as well. foldable smartphone, the Honor Magic V. The company hasn't outed any details about it, aside from letting us know that it is in fact going to be Honor's "first foldable flagship", and that it's coming soon.

According to a leaked presentation slide that surfaced in China, however, we get another bit of info about Honor's upcoming foldable - namely that it will use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. It will, in fact, be the first foldable device to do so, although definitely not the last - we're expecting a lot more entries in this category in 2022.

Rumor has it the Magic V will be fully unveiled next month. We're expecting a lot more details about it to become public before then, so stay tuned.

According to previous leaks, the Honor Magic V will have a 6.5" cover display and an 8" internal screen (when unfolded). Both panels are allegedly supplied by BOE.

        captain fokou, 24 Dec 2021“If You Expect Disappointment, Then You Can Never Really Be... moreWell I don't expect disappointment from what I've seen. Having said that I'm not a potential customer of this pbone anyway as i'm only going to spend around 4,000rmb max on a phone. Interested to see how the whole foldable thing develops though

However, there is a lot of speculation in China that this is going to be priced really competitively and going to surprise everyone. Hopefully this speculation will prove true as Honor's relases have been kind of disappointing this year.

                        This will be a next gen foldable from Honor. It would be amazing if they improve on the Mate X2 design, have the latest flagship processor and GMS, and be available globally. This will put Honor on top of the game regardless of the price as it will be an utterly unique and refined device.

                          Quite high expectations for this foldable in China but also expect a significantly higher price than Oppo's Find N
