A New Contender Emerges
The Oppo Find N5 has taken the lead with an impressive thickness of just 8.93 millimeters (mm), while the V3 measures between 9.2 and 9.3mm, depending on the type of rear panel used on either model.
Future Possibilities for Honor
Honor’s upcoming foldable flagship is expected to reclaim its title, as the well-known leaker Digital Chat Station suggests it might achieve a thickness of 8.9mm or potentially even thinner when it launches mid-year.
The next version of Magic V, likely to be named V4 instead of skipping to V5, is anticipated to be unveiled by May 2025, rather than June as previously thought, according to Digital Chat Station.
Staying Ahead of the Competition
These plans from the OEM should keep it in the lead against another upcoming competitor, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7.
For those who are looking for a more compact foldable option, the second-generation Magic V Flip may also be available around the same time as the V4.
The V Flip2 and V4 could also be launched alongside other traditional smartphones like the 400 series and GT Pro in mid-2025.
