HONOR Launches World’s Slimmest Foldable Smartphone, the Magic V5, in Malaysia – Premium Upgrades at the Same RM6,999 Price. Global smart device brand HONOR has officially unveiled its latest flagship foldable, the HONOR Magic V5, in Malaysia. Known as the world’s slimmest foldable smartphone, the Magic V5 redefines portability and performance, measuring just 8.8mm when folded and a remarkable 4.1mm when unfolded. In a bold move, HONOR continues to offer this cutting-edge device at an unchanged price of RM6,999 – marking the third year in a row the brand has maintained this attractive pricing for its foldable line.
To celebrate the launch, HONOR is offering an exclusive pre-order bundle worth RM3,497, available until 24 July 2025. The bundle includes premium items such as the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 9 speaker valued at RM1,299, along with comprehensive device protection plans – a 1-Year Crack Protection and a 2-Year Quality Assurance – providing users with added value and peace of mind.
Making the upgrade even more accessible, HONOR is offering a generous trade-in program allowing customers to trade in their old smartphones, tablets, or laptops. An additional RM400 rebate will be given for purchases of the HONOR Magic V5 through this program, which runs from 15 July to 31 August 2025 at HONOR Experience Stores and participating retailers including Maxis, Senheng, Grand Senheng, SenQ, Urban Republic, and Harvey Norman.
For added convenience, HONOR is also providing a 0% interest installment plan over 24 months, making the device available for as low as RM292 per month. This flexible financing option is available at all HONOR Experience Stores across Malaysia.
Despite its slim form, the HONOR Magic V5 delivers powerful upgrades in every aspect. It is powered by a robust 5820mAh HONOR Silicon-Carbon Battery – the thinnest high-capacity battery in the foldable segment – and supported by the E2 Power Enhanced Chip for superior energy efficiency and thermal performance.
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the Magic V5’s advanced camera system, headlined by a 64MP Periscope Telephoto Camera with 100x digital zoom – the best telephoto lens found in a foldable phone. The setup is completed with a 50MP Main Camera, 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera, and a 20MP Selfie Camera. The device also introduces powerful AI photography tools like AI Super Zoom, AI Motion Sensing Capture, and AI Enhanced Portrait, along with editing features such as AI Outpainting, AI Eraser, and AI Cutout, making professional-level photography and creative content easier than ever.
Designed to be both beautiful and durable, the Magic V5 features a reinforced Aerospace Special Fiber body and an Anti-scratch NanoCrystal Shield for the outer screen. The inner display includes a triple-protection structure with innovative Non-Newtonian Fluid technology for superior impact resistance, and AI-driven Foreign Object Detection to alert users of debris like sand particles inside the fold.
With a hinge rated for 500,000 folds and IP58 and IP59 ratings for water and dust resistance, the HONOR Magic V5 promises long-lasting durability. Under the hood, it runs on the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, ensuring smooth multitasking and high-speed performance for today’s demanding users.
The device also prioritizes eye comfort with 4,320Hz PWM Dimming on both screens and a peak brightness of 5,000 nits for crystal-clear visibility even in bright sunlight. Its expansive 7.95-inch inner screen supports advanced multitasking with HONOR’s new Three Split Screen feature and AI-powered Gemini Live for smart assistance during meetings, travel planning, shopping, and more.
File sharing is made effortless with upgraded HONOR Share, which now supports easy transfers between iOS, macOS, and HONOR devices. iPhone users can also make the switch seamlessly through iCloud Cloning, allowing fast data migration including messages, photos, contacts, and more.
Available in four sophisticated colors – Dawn Gold, Ivory White, Silk Brown, and Black – the HONOR Magic V5 is equipped with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage. For full details and pre-order information, visit www.honor.com/my.
