Thickness when folded – less than 1 cm
Honor today launched the Magic V2 foldable smartphone in China. By the combination of characteristics, it can be called the most advanced smartphone in its class. And judging by the preliminary specifications of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5, which leaked reliable insiders, Magic V2 may remain the most advanced after the release of the main competitor.
The creators call Honor Magic V2 the thinnest foldable smartphone in the world. The thickness of the device is 9.9 mm – and this is when folded. Some conventional smartphones are indeed thicker. The mass is comparable to the mass of conventional flagships – 231 grams. For comparison: the mass of Honor Magic5 Pro is 219 grams.
Both the outer and inner screens occupy more than 90% of the area of the corresponding part of the case. The inner aspect ratio is 20:9, while the outer aspect ratio is 9.8:9. The Magic V2 is also the first smartphone to support both screens at 120Hz. But even something else is much more interesting – the PWM adjustment frequency of both screens is 3840 Hz. That is, they can be called non-flickering.

There are two front cameras – they are embedded in the outer and inner screens. Resolution – 16 MP. The main camera – with sensors with a resolution of 50, 50 and 20 megapixels (in the module with the latter – a telephoto lens that provides zoom up to 40x).
