HONOR Malaysia kicks off 2024 with a major revelation, introducing its latest flagship, the HONOR Magic V2, acclaimed as the world’s thinnest and lightest inward foldable phone. Following its successful debut in China last July, the HONOR Magic V2 has generated significant anticipation and excitement among global tech enthusiasts, with Malaysians eagerly awaiting its official release.
As a teaser, the phone will be tethered to a helium balloon and released into the air to demonstrate its weightlessness.
The HONOR Magic V2 marks a milestone as the first foldable phone with a thickness below 1cm when folded, earning its status as the Best Choice of New Era in smartphone design. Notably, the device measures a mere 9.9mm when folded and an astonishing 4.7mm when unfolded, equivalent to the thickness of three stacked credit cards. Impressively, it weighs just 231g, lighter and thinner than its predecessor.
Crafted to provide unmatched functionality and a sleek design, HONOR prioritizes ultimate portability through meticulous refinement of structure, manufacturing, and materials. The innovative advancements contributing to the slimness and durability of the HONOR Magic V2 include:
- Super-light Titanium Hinge:
The phone features a robust hinge made from superlight titanium, an aerospace-grade material that achieves an ideal balance between weight and strength, ensuring durability while keeping the device lightweight. HONOR Shield Steel, a proprietary steel inspired by tunnel boring applications, adds further durability to the hinge. - Advanced Structure and Components:
The redesigned hinge support structure reduces thickness by 75%, and a new brake caliper damping structure with seven sets of cams ensures smooth and stable opening and closing, enabling the phone to hover at various angles. A micro lock component prevents screen misalignments and creases. - Architecture for More Space and Power:
The innovative ‘three-in-one’ display driver component allows space for a large 5000mAh silicon-carbon battery, ensuring a thin yet powerful device. The ultra-thin vapor chamber (VC) cooling system maintains optimal performance, preventing overheating. - Ultra-thin Antenna:
The phone incorporates an ultra-thin three-millimeter antenna, the thinnest in the foldable industry.
These breakthrough innovations enable the HONOR Magic V2 to endure over 400,000 folds, making it highly durable for a lifespan of up to ten years. The device showcases foldable phones as a game-changing innovation for future generations, capturing the interest of tech enthusiasts into this cutting-edge technology.
