HONOR Magic V5: Redefining the Folding Smartphone Experience
HONOR has shaken up the smartphone industry with the launch of the HONOR Magic V5, achieving record-breaking pre-order numbers - double those of its predecessor, the Honor Magic V3, within the first few days of availability (August 20-29, 2025). This success stems from a compelling combination of innovative design, cutting-edge technology, and a strategic marketing approach.
A New Standard in Design: The World’s Thinnest Foldable
A key driver of the Magic V5’s popularity is its revolutionary design,prioritizing thinness and lightness. The Ivory White variant measures just 8.8mm thick when folded and weighs a mere 217 grams. The Dawn Gold and Reddish Brown models are slightly thicker at 9mm and weigh 222 grams, still offering a comfortable and manageable form factor comparable too conventional flagship smartphones, while delivering the expansive screen real estate of a foldable device.AI-Powered Performance & All-Day Battery life
Beyond aesthetics, the HONOR Magic V5 integrates next-generation artificial intelligence with powerful hardware. The inclusion of advance AI and Google Gemini transforms the device into a proactive assistant, capable of aiding in task management and idea generation with a single tap. Features like Multi-Flex Mode (supporting simultaneous 3-screen activation) and real-time translation/conference summarization further enhance productivity.
Addressing a common concern with foldable phones, the Magic V5 boasts a high-capacity 5820mAh battery, enabled by a new Honor Silicon-Carbon battery technology that maintains a slim 2.59mm profile. This is complemented by HONOR SuperCharge 66W wired charging and 50W wireless charging,achieving a full charge in just 43 minutes. Durability is also prioritized with IP58 and IP59 ratings for water and dust resistance.
Pricing, Availability & Launch Promotions
The HONOR Magic V5 (16GB+512GB) is available in Dawn Gold, Reddish Brown, and ivory White, priced at 57,990 baht. A prosperous Early Bird promotion,running until September 30,2025,offered channel-specific incentives: offline channels provided a 2-year warranty and a 5,000 baht discount with trade-in,while online channels included a warranty and a free HONOR Magic Pen (valued at 2,999 baht).These factors combined have propelled the HONOR Magic V5 to become the most sought-after folding smartphone of the year, establishing HONOR as a leader in the evolving foldable market.
