We have a new folding to tempt ourselves: it’s about Honor Magic V5a smartphone that bets on this unique format but does so with an increasingly relevant component: AI.
Thus, Google Gemini becomes a fundamental part of the experience of use of a terminal that is full of good specifications to convince us of something that should be obvious: two screens are better than one.

Guarantees hardware in a finer foldable than ever
If there is a clearly remarkable element in the design of the new Magic V5 honor, that is that of the extreme thinness of this folding terminal, which in one of its versions presumes A thickness of only 8.8 mm (9.0 mm in the other). The manufacturer says that we are facing “the folding smartphone in the thinst in the world” to date.


The evolution from the Honor Magic V3 It is clear inside, and like that extreme thinness remains one of the clear objectives. By the way, reminder: This new terminal is called “V5” and not “v4” because in China it is considered that number four gives bad luck. Pure Tetraphobia.
We are facing a folding mobile that has an exterior screen of 6.43 “diagonal, and that when displaying extends that diagonal until 7.95”. The resolution of both AMOLED panels allows you to enjoy an extraordinary pixel density (404 ppp), and we have a brightness that can reach 5,000 peak nits.
This device also has a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite accompanied by 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. That soc and that memory are especially important to give life to one of the most highlights in honor: The AI, which is based on Google Gemini.
It will be enough to press the ignition button to launch Google’s assistant, which will help users with writing, planning, learning and many other areas. The company already made clear its intention of not losing the AI train, and for this will invest 10,000 million dollars in the next five years.


There is also another way to launch the wizard: the “TAP TAP” system that consists of twice playing the back of the device, which eiva the need to unlock it or open an application. The functions of AI are patent in the photographic section, but also in functions such as the translation of AI calls in real time in six languages.
The terminal is launched with Android 15 and Magic UI 9.1, but it will be one of the first to have Android 16, they say in honor. They also guarantee seven years of Android updates and seven years of security patches in the EU.
Another section in which this mobile wants to breastfeed is in the photograph. The sensors in this case They presume megapixels: 50 for the main and the wide angle, and 64 for the telephoto, in addition to 20 MP for the two front cameras, one on the interior screen and one outside.
The battery has a capacity of 5,820 mAh, and in honor they emphasize that in the cells of the battery there is 15% silicon content, which prolongs the available autonomy. It is possible to recharge it taking advantage of the fast honor charging system that reaches 66 W, and the same thing happens with the wireless load, in which we can reach up to 50 W.
