Great work Lim.. 👌👌👌 I like to buy this gorgeous device, but unfortunately Honor didn't launch this device in Thailand... If they do also I don't have that much of Vitamin-M to purchase this device 🤭🤭🤭
Being advertised as the slim, lightweight foldable is great marketing strategy. I know a few acquaintance who would love this over say the recent Oppo Find.
Skip this guys. I'm currently using the Oppo Find N3/OnePlus Open. Trust me it's a whole lot better. Invisible crease, Dolby Vision display, better multitask software better than Z Fold 5, powerful camera and ranked 4th place in Average ELO rating behind Pixel phones based on MKBHD blind smartphone camera video. This V2 is not even in the list. 😊
I bought honor magic v2 over oppo find n3. Oppo find n3 its like carrying a brick while honor magic v2 it's so comfortable and beautiful. Battery life is super good.
Aside from the competition because it is appealing. Honor still did a really good job by slimming the hell out of the folding phone while still maintaining flagship quality experience. I mean c'mon I want a vapour cooling system in my device for gaming and Honor nailed by slimming the crap out of it
This is the best foldable hands down. Don't listen to those biased reviewers out there and get indoctrinated ffs. I have at some point, but happy I went with Honor. Have your own opinion. This foldable has the best screen, is the thinnest, has the bigger battery, great cameras, multitasking is unbelievably good (anyone using Honor would know what I'm talking about), has a smooth Desktop mode and software capabilities are just dope. I have a Magic 5 pro and I'm so happy for the decision as an ex Huawei user. If I would've listened to those biased anti-china, anti everything that doesn't suit their agenda reviewers, I would've made the wrong decision as I've done with Pixel 7 pro...no comment on that. Should've thrown it in the dumpster.
Looking forward to your HONOR Magic V3 review - could you also review the stylus & foldable software for MagicOS? I'm coming from Fold4 and not impressed with Samsung's latest iteration compared to Xiaomi, Vivo and Honor (Wish I could use Huawei in Australia)
I much prefer this over the Oppo n3 fold, the camera on Oppo is way too big, this v2 is so much simpler in design and the display spec looks better, good job again Honor

I've been waiting to see the Magic V2 to be officially available here since the Magic Vs has been the value-for-money champ in the foldable smartphone circle. However, at RM6,999, it's only RM300 less than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 512GB. That's not much of a difference compared to the RM1,300 gap between the Magic Vs and the Z Fold 4/5 512GB.
Hey Quick question, is there a dutch language setting in this thing? Nobody has confirmed this to me yet. I need to import from germany Just saw the launch event. And you guys are getting good price!!
This is the global version with Google Play Services including Dutch language. But Don't buy the Chinese Model without Google Play Services, and only English and Chinese language. The Chinese Model will not work in the Netherlands
The phone floating on a piece of paper had me ROFL. What a marketing strategy. Of course it's real but it has nothing to do with the phone being (although a little) light or heavy, its the surface area of the paper that distributes the load so the pressure reduces significantly which doesn't break the surface tension of water!
It still makes a good point about the weight of the phone, no other company has such light yet large foldables. No other company can claim the same feat. It's much more comfortable to use a large device that has its weight evenly distributed, plus the overall weight is extremely light as well.
Great details as usual, great job Lim ! Just concern that this phone only available as import in my country and actually cost more than galaxy fold 5. But taking a look at this and I will never think about the Fold 5 again, too thick and heavy.
It's already 2024, Honor is still launching their flagship phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor? While other brands flagship phones with SD8 Gen 3 processors has already hit the market since Q4 2023. Are they treating the overseas market as their dumping ground?
Huawei does full submergible water resistance on their foldables. Samsung and the Pixel fold as well. The V2 doesn't have a rating though. Dust resistance seems impossible for the moment likely due to the moving parts. Perhaps in the future.
Just checked out in hong kong store. The Crease is less visible than galaxy fold 5 and thinner! But i think it would be wise to only buy after few months to see if there are any big problems with screen among users feedback.
@@jackjhmc820 I can't say whether it's a good thing or not, just that it felt great when closed and I've never held something as thin as an opened magic v2. The hinge felt sturdy enough. The opened sides weren't easy to grip on like how people tuck a phone in their palm, so you'd have to pinch it on the back and inner screen when it's opened. It could cause some misclicks because of the small bezels. Edit: I forgot, you're right in assuming it. it was a factor in my intuition, to be extra careful not to drop, but not in the reason it felt too thin. I was more concerned with gripping and palming it.
Rabiyatul, you do NOT need another phone. Yes, its nice. But NO, you do NOT need another phone. Nice review!! Would love to see if you'd kindly compare tablets/ipads and which are the best to use for work while traveling.. esp those which can be used with pens..
Can't wait for the V3. Still weird why the V2 takes forever to reach global market even though it was released almost 4 months ago. At least it's hardware is substantial.
I used to own a Magic VS and the screen cracked on me 2 times in just 6 months. It's frustrating having to claim for warranty every 3 months. IMHO, make sure you are prepared to deal with frequent screen cracks before you decide to get 1.
The phone was launched back in July last year. Definitely not "a couple of months back". Honor waited too long to release it. No one is buying a phone for this price with last year's chipset.

Hi, have you tried using the honor v2 camera for video recording at max settings for long hours, and the phone still doesn't overheat? I encountered a message "your device is too hot" on my magic 4 pro when I recorded many videos continuously with my camera app for 1 hour+
A bit outdated video. Oppo Find N3 is a foldables king since it was released. As for Honor, it has not good software and slicky edges in comparison to Z Fold and Oppo Find

My only advice is get ur self an extended warranty and insurance for 2 years. I don’t know what’s the reliability of Oppo but I have Samsung fold 4 and yes the inner display broke but luckily i got free insurance and warranty to replace it.

Sorry but the Open still isn't good enough. The number one concern consumers have about foldables is not the camera. It's the durability. The Open has fallen short in the area where it matters the most.

Honor did a wonderful job with the design and delivered great spec as well .
I love your honor magic themed haircut!
Preordered one after watching your review! Going back to Android after so many years and selling off my iPhone 15 Pro next week
Same im from 14 pm change to s23ultra...today saw this device at honor shop...impressed with the screen...very bright and sharp, no visible crease

nobody will compare HONOR with OPPO, different level of the brand. OPPO is perfect for those who want to buy a phone below RM1000
I have used a Fold 4 and tested out a OnePlus Open. Those devices feel like bricks compared to the V2.
Great content keep it up as always bro
I bought honor magic v2 over oppo find n3. Oppo find n3 its like carrying a brick while honor magic v2 it's so comfortable and beautiful. Battery life is super good.
Still working good? The hinge gets more visible over time I assume?
I had the opportunity to physically handle this device and use. I was very impressed BUT what US carrier will it work on?

what about z fold 5, if compare it with HONOR Magic V2?
Yo Lim, is the phone as durable as magic 6 pro?
The Porsche edition and thr Huawei mate x5 are incredible and if Samsung doesn't give fold 6 100% I'll get honor or Huawei
Magic os is not as good as Samsung.
Try one+.
@nak141 yes I have the s23 ultra and one ui is indeed favorite Android software I just think with the fold 6 we need that prototype design
How about the stabilization on the video recording? is it good? especially during walking or running.
Been using the Chinese version of the V2, and i am enjoying the phone👍🏼😃
In the US? Any major downsides you've noticed
No, from the Netherlands. Only drawback is Android auto. Everythings else works great, after the gms update.
@@ericbrink8305 gotcha, so no Android auto?
I got my V2 from Hong Kong which is international version 😊

Hey bro...
I still searching for a flagship phone so confused too many model budget below 8k can you suggest any smartphone
Can someone tell me what game that was? 3:27

How about vivo x fold 3 pro
Great details as usual, great job Lim ! Just concern that this phone only available as import in my country and actually cost more than galaxy fold 5. But taking a look at this and I will never think about the Fold 5 again, too thick and heavy.
That intro beat is fire🔥🔥🔥
Lim pilih mana oppo find n3 atau honor magic v2 ??
Which you prefer, this or Oppo find n3 fold?
me too, this is the foldable i wanted to have😊
Does it come with Google Apps or Play Store?
All of these reviews are missing this info.
Of course because its malaysia set
You were in Croatia with this phone?
hey, that's my hometown you went to :)
Need to skip to 1:00minute to get to the real start of the video. Lots of fillers. Sentences can be shortened and be less repetitive.
It's already 2024, Honor is still launching their flagship phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor?
While other brands flagship phones with SD8 Gen 3 processors has already hit the market since Q4 2023.
Are they treating the overseas market as their dumping ground?
I'm new to the whole foldable thing... is it really a game changer or is it more gimmick than anything?
I can't go back to normal phones after this! 👍🏼
@@ericbrink8305 oh wow... thanks for the input friend!
look at the slimness and extremely lightweight, it is almost like a normal phone, I think it is worth to try!
Is this ip rated? Not sure if foldables can be splash or water resist.

Were you in Sarajevo for this?

Is it better the Samsung Z fold 5?
Is it cheaper than z5?
Just checked out in hong kong store. The Crease is less visible than galaxy fold 5 and thinner! But i think it would be wise to only buy after few months to see if there are any big problems with screen among users feedback.
Checked it out in Fortress too :p It’s nearly too thin when opened.
@yensteel isn't that the main selling point? Or u meant it might be physically too vulnerable from dropping on the floor from the thinness?

Bought the s24u but kind of envying this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Slowest phone launch ever. Honor should have launch this a year ago lol
At least it did get launched globally. Xiaomi and Vivo can't even be bothered to sell their foldable phones outside China.
