HONOR Philippines is set to officially launch its latest flagship foldable, HONOR Magic V5, on September 5, 2025. The company promises this won’t just be another slim foldable phone – it’s positioning the Magic V5 as potentially the most durable foldable smartphone ever created, capable of withstanding extreme stress tests including supporting sofas and 35-kilogram dumbbells.
How Has HONOR Revolutionized Foldable Design?
According to HONOR Philippines Vice President Stephen Cheng, the foldable phone industry has undergone dramatic transformation since its inception in 2019. “Since the rise of foldables in 2019, it has undergone several waves of innovation, evolving from thick, crease-prone designs to sleeker, more practical form factors. With each generation, the focus has shifted toward slimmer profiles, greater portability, and a user experience closer to that of bar phones.”
Cheng emphasizes that HONOR has been instrumental in driving this evolution: “HONOR has been at the forefront of this transformation, continuously pushing the boundaries of thinness. The HONOR Magic V5 exemplifies this progress, setting a new industry benchmark as the world’s thinnest foldable and redefining what slim truly means in the foldable category.”
What Engineering Breakthrough Enables Both Strength and Slimness?
The key innovation lies in HONOR’s approach to structural engineering. Rather than simply miniaturizing existing components, the company has focused on developing new materials and design solutions that maintain durability while reducing bulk.
The Magic V5 features an enhanced Super Steel Hinge engineered to be lighter than its predecessors while delivering superior performance. The hinge offers a tighter folding mechanism that reduces the phone’s overall thickness when closed yet maintains exceptional durability with an impressive tensile strength of 2,300 MPa.
This engineering achievement is crucial for the foldable’s long-term reliability, as the hinge mechanism must support the flexible display through thousands of opening and closing cycles while preserving the device’s slim profile.
When and Where Can Consumers Experience the HONOR Magic V5?
#MyFirstFoldable, HONOR Magic V5 will make its official debut in the Philippines on September 5, 2025, with the launch event being broadcast live on Facebook.
