Honor is getting ready to unveil its upcoming foldable device, which is likely to be named the Magic V4, in June. A recent leak hints that this new model will use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite processor, which is the full-core variant, unlike the seven-core version seen in the Oppo Find N5.
Key Features Leaked
Additionally, other important details may have been revealed, such as the display sizes, camera improvements, and a sleeker design. Although the leak does not directly mention the Magic V4, all indications suggest that it’s referring to this specific model.
Expected Specifications of Honor Magic V4
As per DCS, the foldable device is anticipated to come with an 8-inch LTPO inner display boasting a refresh rate of 120Hz and a 2K resolution. The cover display will also feature LTPO technology with the same 120Hz refresh rate, measuring 6.45 inches.
On the camera side, reports indicate that the Magic V4 may keep the 50MP 1/1.5-inch main sensor from the previous Magic V3. However, a major enhancement could be in the telephoto department—the leak mentions a 200MP 1/1.4-inch sensor that offers 3x optical zoom, which is a significant upgrade from the 50MP zoom lens utilized in the Magic V3. There might be another sensor included as well, but information about it is still unclear.
A Thinner Design
Despite the improved camera specifications, the Magic V4 is expected to have a thickness of less than 9mm, potentially making it one of the slimmest foldables on the market. The previous Magic V3 was the thinnest until the Oppo Find N5 took that title last month. If Honor aims to reclaim its status, the Magic V4 will need to be even more slender.
The foldable is also rumored to offer wireless charging, an IPX8 waterproof rating, and support for satellite communication. For biometric security, it appears Honor will stick with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor rather than an in-display one.
If the leaked information turns out to be accurate, the Magic V4 could become one of the most thrilling foldables of the year. More details should surface in June.
