HONOR Magic V5: Exclusive worry-free 2-year warranty for latest foldable
DESPITE rising interest in foldable smartphones, durability remains a key concern for many consumers.
Much of this stems from the high cost of repairs. Replacing parts like the inner screen can run into the thousands, nearly the price of a new mid-range device such as the HONOR 400.
The newly launched HONOR Magic V5 tackles this worry directly, offering a robust design paired with a 2-Year Worry-Free Warranty for added peace of mind.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Every HONOR Magic V5 purchase qualifies for this warranty, which comes with two layers of support:
1-Year Worry-Free Crack Protection. Users can enjoy a one-time replacement service* for both the inner and outer screens in case of cracks. *A labour fee of RM60 applies.
2-Year Quality Assurance. Non-user-induced damages, such as green lines, screen leakage or display abnormalities, qualify for a free screen replacement within two years. Users can get unlimited free replacements throughout the warranty period.
CRAFTED FOR LONGEVITY
The HONOR Magic V5 is equipped with an Anti-scratch NanoCrystal Shield, which boasts 3x wear resistance, 10x drop resistance and 15x scratch resistance. This shield withstands everyday hazards, such as key scratches and drops onto hard surfaces, pushing the durability benchmark for folding devices.
The device also features a Super Armoured Inner Screen, which features a three-layer protective structure:
Its outermost layer is an alumina-coated anti-scratch film
The middle layer is infused with a non-Newtonian fluid, which absorbs shock from drops
The innermost layer integrates a full carbon fibre backing around the hinge to block dust ingress, a common cause of green line screen failures
In addition, HONOR has integrated an AI Particle Detection System that actively monitors for debris trapped between the screens and alerts users in real-time to prevent potential damage.
Reinforcing the Magic V5's outer shell is a seven-layer aerospace-grade fibre body, offering 40 times more impact resistance than standard materials. This advanced fibre composition is the same used in high-stakes applications such as suspension ropes in spacesuits, SpaceX spacecraft parachutes and China's police ballistic armour, offering a rare combination of high strength, heat resistance, corrosion resistance and ultra-lightweight performance.
The HONOR Super Steel Hinge is tested for 500,000 folds, equivalent to over 13 years of usage at a rate of 100 folds per day. It is constructed with shield steel (2,300MPa strength), increasing hinge impact resistance by 25 per cent.
The device also meets IP58 and IP59 ratings, offering dust resistance against particles larger than 1mm, water resistance up to 1.5m depth for 30 minutes and protection against high-pressure, high-temperature water jets.
NO COMPROMISE ON PERFORMANCE
In terms of specs, the HONOR Magic V5 packs a 5,820mAh Silicon Carbon Ultra-thin battery that supports all-day battery life even under heavy use. Measuring 2.1mm, with 15% silicon content, it provides considerable capacity within a compact space.
Unlike conventional batteries that use a basic hybrid layering system, HONOR's design adopts a sandwich-like anode coating approach that layers silicon and graphite, enhancing both durability and power density. The device supports 66W Super Fast Charging and 50W Wireless HONOR SuperCharge, capable of reaching 50 per cent in 16 minutes and a full charge in 43 minutes.
Performance is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, paired with a Titanium Vapour Chamber Cooling system. This comprises a combination of multi-layer graphene and an ultra-thin vapour chamber covering a 19,000mm² area. Real-world usage reveals that even under heavy loads such as gaming, thermal throttling is reduced by nearly 50 per cent, ensuring sustained high performance.
Completing the premium feature set is one of the most impressive camera setups ever seen on a foldable. The Magic V5 includes a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide lens and a 64MP periscope telephoto lens with dual Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS), supporting up to 100x hybrid zoom.
The HONOR Magic V5 is now available for purchase online and in-store. Find out more on HONOR's website.
