What the reviewers said

Trusted Reviews UK

4/5Mar 22, 2023

Honor's Magic Vs raises the bar for book-style foldables with a confident, pleasant design. App support, MagicOS and cost hold it back, but foldable newcomers will find plenty to like.

  • Gapless fold with flatter crease than Galaxy Z Fold 4
  • Striking eye-catching finish
  • Large 5000mAh battery lasts long
  • Larger inner and outer displays than Z Fold 4
  • Solid daytime and low-light camera performance
  • Inner display capped at 90Hz, outer at 120Hz
  • App compatibility still an issue for foldable use
  • Last-gen Snapdragon chipset, not the latest
  • Glass build is very slippery without case
  • Telephoto colour shift makes 3x zoom less appealing
