Honor is gearing up for the global release of the Magic V3, taking significant steps to make a mark. After previously challenging Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 6, the company now aims for an official Guinness World Record. To achieve this, Honor plans to highlight the lightweight nature of the Magic V3 in a unique way—by using it in the construction of a talent House of Cards.
Honor Magic V3’s Guinness World Record Attempt
The Chinese tech company has announced its intention to set a new record alongside Bryan Berg, a renowned Guinness World Record holder. Honor's ambitious plan involves Berg building the tallest house of cards, with a twist: the Honor Magic V3 foldable phone will be placed atop the structure, emphasizing its lightweight design. Weighing only 226 grams, the Magic V3 is remarkably light for an inward-folding phone.
Is It Actually Possible?
With the Magic V3, Honor introduces a new level of innovation in foldable smartphone design. Devices like the Magic V3, which feature a primary large folding screen along with a cover display, are often characterized as bulky. For instance, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 weighs 239 grams and measures 12.1mm thick when folded. In contrast, the Magic V3 is just 9.2mm thick, showcasing its sleek design.
Here’s How You Can Watch the World Record Attempt
Honor, along with Bryan Berg, will pursue the Guinness World Record tomorrow (22nd August 2024) at 15:00 CEST. This event will be broadcast live on Honor’s official X account and YouTube channel. The challenge involves Bryan constructing the tallest house of cards within 8 hours without any adhesive, and you can follow the attempt through the provided links.
