Chinese users often have the advantage of being the first to test new devices from domestic manufacturers: Huawei, Honor, Oppo, OnePlus and others. In Europe, however, we always have to wait a few months or hope that the manufacturer will decide to produce a global version. Honor, which has recently been making waves in the field of foldable phones, recently launched the Magic V3, which surpasses the competition in many ways. This is true both at the expense of performance and form.

When preparing the Magic V3 phone, Honor paid a lot of attention to the design, which can be seen at first glance. This is a beautiful foldable phone. For starters, it's very thin, measuring just 9.2 millimeters when closed. This means that it is the thinnest phone of any foldable phone on the market. The frame is slightly curved, and the device is available in three colors: black, white and pink. But these are no ordinary colors. The black and white versions look almost like a pearl, while the pink one has a very unique pattern.

The device is also quite powerful. They chose a very powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile processor for the chip, which will easily satisfy most users. One of the biggest highlights is the external screen, which is one of the largest for phones of this type. Equipped with an LTPO OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and 85% screen-to-body ratio, it looks almost flawless. Of course, this will be suitable for games as well as for fun and work.

The battery (5,150 mAh) charges at a fast 66 W, and wireless charging at 50 watts. There is also a wide range of high-quality cameras available here, with main resolutions of 50 million pixels. The entry-level version of the novelty is valued at a calculated 1,139 euros. It is not yet clear whether the phone will also come to Slovenia and when this could happen. If it does, we could expect it in the fall.
