Honor Magic V Flip 2

The Honor Magic V Flip 2 is a foldable handset with a flip-style folding design, measuring 167.1 mm in height, 75.6 mm in width, and just 6.9 mm in thickness, with a total volume of approximately 87.17 cm³. It weighs 204 g and carries an IP58 ingress protection rating, making it resistant to water in everyday conditions. The device does not feature a rugged build.

The main display is a touchscreen OLED/AMOLED panel measuring 6.82″, delivering a resolution of 1232 x 2868 pixels at a pixel density of 458 ppi, with a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth on-screen motion. It supports HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision for broad high dynamic range compatibility, though it does not feature an Always-On Display mode or branded damage-resistant glass. The device also includes a secondary screen with a resolution of 1200 x 1092 pixels, which is a natural complement to its foldable form factor.

The device is built around a chip manufactured on a 4 nm process node, featuring an 8-thread CPU with a big.LITTLE configuration and Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) support, with clock speeds spanning 2.26, 2.96, 3.15, and 3.3 GHz across its core clusters, and a TDP of 12.5W. It pairs 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM running at 4800 MHz across two memory channels with a maximum memory bandwidth of 76.6 GB/s and a maximum supported memory amount of 24 GB, while internal storage reaches 1024 GB. Graphics are handled by the Adreno 750 GPU clocked at 900 MHz with 3 execution units, supporting DirectX 12, OpenGL 3.2, OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenVG 1.2, and OpenCL 2, with integrated LTE also present on the SoC. The chip supports 64-bit processing, multithreading, and TrustZone security, and the CPU is backed by 1 MB of L2 cache and 12 MB of L3 cache, with Geekbench 6 scores of 2213 (single-core) and 7325 (multi-core).

The rear camera system is a dual-lens setup with 200 MP and 50 MP sensors, offering apertures of f/2 and f/1.9 respectively, and relies on a CMOS sensor with optical image stabilization and phase-detection autofocus for stills, as well as continuous autofocus during video recording, though it does not include a back-illuminated sensor or laser autofocus. The flash consists of two LEDs, though it is not a dual-tone or RGB unit, and there is no front-facing flash. Manual controls available include exposure, ISO, focus, and white balance, while manual shutter speed is not supported; additional shooting modes cover HDR, burst, panorama, slow-motion video, and timelapse, but the camera cannot shoot in RAW format, capture 360° panoramas, or record in HDR10 or Dolby Vision. The 50 MP front camera sits behind an f/2 aperture, is positioned conventionally rather than under the display, and is a single-lens unit with touch autofocus, without a secondary front lens or 3D photo and video capabilities.

The device runs Android 15 and includes a broad set of privacy controls, covering clipboard warnings, location privacy options, and camera and microphone access management, though it does not offer Mail Privacy Protection or cross-site tracking blocking. Customization options are well-covered, with theme customization, dynamic theming, dark mode, an extra dim mode, widget support, and customizable notifications, while focus modes and Quick Start are not available. On the productivity side, the OS supports split-screen multitasking, Picture-in-Picture, full-page screenshots, a media picker, sharing intents, Live Text, app offloading, and the ability to play games while they are still downloading, but it cannot function as a PC replacement. Privacy and utility features also extend to app tracking blocking, on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, phone tracking, battery health check, child lock, and multi-user support, though Wi-Fi password sharing and direct OS vendor updates are not present.

The Honor Magic V Flip 2 houses a rechargeable 5500 mAh battery that supports fast wired charging at 80W as well as wireless charging at 50W, with a charger included in the box. The battery is not removable, but the device does feature a battery level indicator to keep track of remaining charge.

The device features stereo speakers but does not include a 3.5 mm headphone jack or a built-in radio. For wireless audio, it supports aptX and aptX HD, though aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, and LDAC are not available.

The device supports 5G connectivity and is equipped with a cellular module, dual SIM card slots, and Wi-Fi covering versions 4, 5, and 6 (802.11n/ac/ax), alongside Bluetooth 5.4 and NFC. Wired connectivity is handled via a USB Type-C port running USB 2.0, and there is no external memory slot, HDMI output, or DLNA certification. Download speeds reach up to 10,000 Mbit/s with upload speeds of up to 3,500 Mbit/s. On the sensors and navigation side, the phone includes GPS with Galileo support, a gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass, while a barometer, infrared sensor, heart rate monitor, and ANT+ support are absent. Security is managed through a fingerprint scanner, with no iris scanner, 3D facial recognition, crash detection, or emergency SOS via satellite on board, and there is no stylus included, nor any built-in projector, motion tracking, or optical tracking functionality.

The device includes a video light for use during video recording, while its display is flat rather than curved and uses neither sapphire glass nor e-paper technology.
