Honor unveiled its Magic V6 foldable smartphone on 2 July 2026, making the device available across Europe, the United Kingdom, Italy, Serbia, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and other markets. The phone folds to just 8.75 mm thick when closed and 4 mm when open, weighing about 219 g. It is powered by a 6,660 mAh silicon‑carbon battery – the largest ever fitted in a foldable – delivering fast 80 W wired and 66 W wireless charging and reverse‑wireless charging. The handset runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 3 nm processor with 16 GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512 GB UFS 4.1 storage, and runs MagicOS 10 on Android 16, featuring AI agents and Google Gemini integration.

Durability is highlighted by a Super Steel Hinge rated for 500,000 folds, IP68 and IP69 water‑dust resistance, and an Anti‑scratch NanoCrystal Shield coating. The displays comprise a 6.52‑inch outer OLED panel and a 7.95‑inch inner flexible panel, both with adaptive 1–120 Hz refresh rates, peak brightness up to 6,000 nits (outer) and 5,000 nits (inner), and low‑PWM dimming for eye comfort.
