Smartphone · Honor · 2023
The Honor Magic V2 128GB is Honor's 2023 smartphone featuring a 7.92 inches, 201.6 cm2 (~88.5% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm SM8550-AB Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (4 nm) - IntlQualcomm SM8550-AC Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (4 nm) - China chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 3,800 in the UAE and ₹54,999 in India, it sits firmly in the upper mid-range tier.
The Honor Magic V2 excels with its 5000mAh battery delivering 10h 35m active use and 66W wired charging that refills from 0–70% in under 30 minutes, while the 7.92-inch 2156x2344 display offers sharp 402 ppi clarity for multitasking. Its triple rear setup—50MP main with OIS, 20MP telephoto with 2.5x optical zoom, and 50MP ultrawide—delivers consistent detail in varied lighting. Ideal for professionals needing foldable productivity: lawyers, consultants, or creatives who juggle documents, video calls, and photo editing on a large screen without bulk. Its weakness? Thermals throttle under sustained 5G gaming or 4K recording, causing noticeable slowdowns after 15 minutes. In UAE at AED 3800, it’s competitive because no other foldable under AED 4500 offers 66W charging and 5000mAh. In India at ₹54999, it’s overpriced—Samsung’s Z Fold3 with similar camera hardware and better thermals sells for ₹52000, making this a premium paywall without proportional gains.
