Honor has been speculated to be developing its inaugural clamshell foldable phone, potentially named the Magic Flip or Magic V Flip, for quite some time.
Details about its specifications and design are scant, but a fresh leak from tipster Digital Chat Station indicates that the Honor Magic Flip will sport the largest battery found in clamshell phones.
Key Features
A substantial cover display is also anticipated, which will be among the largest in its category. The tipster provided an image of the phone's cover screen casing.
Although the image doesn’t reveal much, the camera module seems to have a circular shape. The tipster also noted that the entire outer panel will be a screen with minimal bezels.
Design and Battery
A mockup render of Honor’s flip foldable has surfaced on Weibo. However, this design is not confirmed and may change.
Following the trend set by Honor’s first foldable, the Magic V, the Magic V Flip is projected to be one of the thinnest flip phones on the market. Despite its slender profile, it will feature a 4500mAh battery, significantly larger than competitors like the Galaxy Z Flip 5, which has a 3700mAh battery.
Launch Timeline
Honor is gearing up to launch the Honor 200 series this month, and the company might reveal the first teaser for the Magic V Flip during the same event. The device is expected to debut sometime in June.
As more information is likely to surface closer to the launch, the Honor Magic V Flip is undoubtedly a foldable to watch out for.
