Honor has surprised the world with its new foldable smartphone, Magic V5. On August 1, 2025, this phone set a new Guinness World Record in Dubai.
In this record, Honor Magic V5 successfully lifted a weight of 104 kg and achieved the title of "heaviest weight suspended by a foldable screen mobile phone." This achievement is proof of the robustness and reliable design of this phone.
Super Steel Hinge—Identity of Strength
Behind this record is the second-generation Super Steel Hinge of Honor Magic V5. Its tensile strength is up to 2300 MPa, which makes it extremely strong. This is the reason why this phone can withstand up to 500,000 times of folding and unfolding.
The company has kept it so strong as well as thin—its thickness is just 8.8 mm when folded and 4.1 mm when unfolded.
Design and Display
The design of the phone gives a premium feel. It has a 7.95-inch foldable AMOLED inner display and a 6.43-inch outer screen. Both the screens support a 120 Hz refresh rate. The weight is just 217 grams, and the IP58/IP59 rating protects it from dust and water.
Performance and Battery
The Magic V5 uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, which supports fast performance and AI features. The battery is 5820 mAh, which gets 66 W wired and 50 W wireless charging support.
Camera setup
The phone has a triple rear camera, which includes a 64MP periscope telephoto lens and 50MP wide and ultrawide lenses. This setup is a much better option for photography and videography.
Price and Availability
The Honor Magic V5 was first launched in China, and its global launch will take place on August 28, 2025, in London. Its price in the UAE has been fixed at AED 6,499 (approximately ₹ 147,000). Offers like the Bose speaker, Magic Pen, and VIP Care+ are available on pre-order.
Conclusion
Honor Magic V5 has proved that foldable phones are not limited to design and innovation but can also go ahead in strength and durability. This record is clear proof of Honor's engineering and technology.
