Yikes, that throttling. Reminds me of tbe dogshit Magic5.that came before these phones.

    DavidFr, 25 Apr 2024There's always a better one, of course. But to keep co... moreThe problem you're locked in to this "better" ideal and ONLY limiting to specs.

    It's supposed to be the overall product not just hardware and software but how they work together in operation by the end user. THAT'S where the Z Fold 5 comes out on top a d has c continued to outsell the competition.

      Anonymous, 26 Apr 2024The non Porsche version looks better. The Porsche special version is not targeted for the average person. In fact, it is targeted for the Porsche fans and also the Honor fans.

        NeonHD, 25 Apr 2024For the unknown camera specs, couldn't you guys just i... moreApps like that just extract info from .json or .xml files related to the sensor. If the developer didnt write down the specs there or they are using different format apps cant extract that info for you.

                The V2 is already 3/4 years old, and the preview here is almost as old. Nevertheless, I'm happy that a review was published after all, thank you very much!

                  (+ 29€90 for the charger).

                              I have used the magic V2 for more than 2 months and the oneplus open for similar period the fold 5 as well. I liked the software and camera better in oneplus and fold while the hardware and weight and dimension of the magic amazed me. I sold it after two months because of software issues and lacking support or fast support and updates. Still android 13 and will have android 14 in July while android 15 is coming up already
                              A mobile with an amazing hardware getting lots of restrictions for glory because of software and battery

                                DavidFr, 25 Apr 2024Maybe you just don't understand? The format, the ergo... moreYou're opinion only speaks for yourself. The Z fold outsold all other book folds. So, the secondary screen is usable for the majority of book fold owners. Also, the Z Flip is the most popular selling foldable. How big is that panel? Basically the same size as the Z Fold.

                                That aside, the Magic V2 is now irrelevant. I don't see why anyone would buy this over the Vivo X Fold. That's the drawback when you solely focus on specs. There will always be something better.

                                  LoneOwl, 25 Apr 2024I dont get it. For its high asking price, this phone 1)... moreMaybe you just don't understand?
                                  The format, the ergonomics, the weight, the thinness, these are all unique things.
                                  Android 13? Okay, it's getting Android 14 in July. So?
                                  And the Z Fold 5 has an unusable external screen!

                                    I dont get it.

                                    For its high asking price, this phone
                                    1)uses last year 8gen2
                                    2)has average battery life even though it uses a 5000mah
                                    3)comes with Android 13 with questionable software support
                                    4)no wireless charging for the price
                                    5)no IP rating for the price
                                    6)even the speaker quality is not that great.

                                    All in all, its inferior to last year Z Fold 5.

                                    So again, why did this phone get 4.3 stars??

                                      Message to haters and ignoramuses: I paid €1099 for mine, brand new, from the Honor site in France. Because being smart, there was a 600€ discount for several weeks, and another 300 on the first day. So at 1099€ it's a great choice!!! Unquestionably the best!

                                        I owned the magic v2 for 2 weeks, the inner screen broke. Even though it was carefully used, the inner screen screen protector is strongly glued to the screen film which is responsible for the touch element. A really poor product choice.

                                        Once the screen protector start bubbling up , just know that's the end of your inner screen, this phone is £1699, I didn't buy it through contract. So it's an expensive subpar long term product , hardware wise.


                                        During the period of usage , I must say it provided a great feeling of that magic ,on the basis that technology has come far.
