Hey Chaps! Would you switch to a Foldable?? 🤔
yes
Watching on my 2 weeks old z fold 4 😊
Currently have the fold 5 and love it, but will definitely have a look at this when it comes to blighty
Just switched to the Z Fold 5 and I am not going back to a regular style slab phone. It’s a completely different world using a foldable
I have since the Fold 3. Right now rocking an OPPO Find N2 and just ordered a Pixel Fold which will come in a few days. I plan to sell my OPPO Find N2 + my Google Pixel 6 Pro and get the Honor Magic V2 (Yes I'm a foldable addict/Nerd) 😂😂
This is exactly what a foldable's default dimensions should be. A fairly comfortable size for the folded screen(current 6.3" - 6.6") and just stack 2 of those to make the larger screen. Next up is catching up with the camera and battery life of the non foldables. And That would bring the evolution of foldables to match up and exceed the capabities of a non foldable.
Z Fold is the way to go, next they should do an Ultra one as well with same aspect ratio.
Problem with Magic V2 is when opened the screen is too square.
@@_Mario_PL_the only foldable that would be on landscape when open are oppo's and google's.
Pixel Fold if you want camera. The Honor V2 does have similar camera setup to the Honor Magic 5.
Pixel fold's camera isn't nearly as good as the non foldable Pixel. And it's a first gen product priced higher than the current best in the market which is on its 5th gen. That's some weird pricing for a first gen product with ancient look tbh. Thouh I prefer the size over fold. A fold is a phone that ocasionaly doubles down as a tablet. Not the other way round. So at least while folded, the dimensions are closer to a normal phone.
Reliability and durability are the biggest drawbacks of foldables
I never considered a foldable until this one came out because of the screens, size, and weight. Like the tech finally got there.
I would seriously consider a Magic V2 as my first dip into the foldable phone market. It looks good, it's a good size, cameras seem ok and generally looks to run smoothly. The lack of wireless charging is a small minus though
Buy vivo fold or huwaie
app store not important?
I once had a phone with a broken usb port bit wireless charging. And i hated it. Wireless charging is to slow, i can not use my phone while charging. Charging in a train is almlst impossible. Phone overheats and stops charging if you charge it in a bag. Positioning the phone on the charging pad requires precission. In the dark its hard to put it on the charging block. On uneven sufices its harder to put it on the charging spot. In short Cable is much better.
mee too, I decided to buy V2.
@danieleriksson3170 At 6:44 you could clearly see the Google play store
Very cool! I use the Galaxy fold 3. And the Honor V2 here looks great! My biggest gripe with the Samsung ones is the small front screen. If this comes to the States I'd pick it up. Great review! Hopefully, the stylus will be available here!
Nice video and breakdown/analysis by you. I just picked up a mint 512GB Purple variant off Swappa for $1400 and am EXCITED. I just ordered it and it should be getting to me by today(10/2). I lived in Taiwan for 12 years so I've had Chinese phones in the past: Huawei, OPPO, Vivo, Xiaomi. I am just in LOVE with the form factor and how thin it is. I'll update y'all after I play around with it and get it up and running. 📱📱🤳🤳❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Never been a folding phone fan...but would definitely buy this.
Very nice! Thanks for this review!
Great review! I'm getting it within the week.
Can't wait!
I have an honor magic 4 pro at the moment. I have had 3 of their phones and they are fantastic. I would definitely be looking to buy this if it came to the UK
2:17 you answered what no one else did : yes this phone allows split screen and multi-tasking with full apps showing. Thank you, subscribed.
Many appreciate for your great introduction
Fabulous review!! Great job 👍👍👍
Great review as always!
That motion capture is wild 😍😍😍
I’d definitely buy this if it comes to Canada. That’s as close to perfection in a foldable as you could ask for.. No competition.
I prefer the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 for usable overall size. And you can get these phones in Canada, just order them from overseas.
The OnePlus is a good comparable fold
No flex mode. It cant stay at 40/ 60/ 90degree angle.
@@chrisr.9258how is the flex mode in 1+.
Another interesting and informative review.
That's innovative. Great work to the team at Honor.
Great review. I was expecting this to be available after the IFA presentation, but I was let down. So I did get the Fold 5 with a good deal, but I am still hoping they will launch an Google services optimized Version maybe at the start of 2024. I will definitely buy it.
Same here. I'll jump ship in a heartbeat. That being said I adore the fold5
i've been a Zfold user for 3 years now and i love foldable phone so much i will never go back to regular phones. And this one seems really good. can't wait the lauch so i can try it.
I've had two folds and I would order this one in a heartbeat
I would LOVE to buy it, as long as the Pencil works well and the camera software and the durability of the hardware holds up.
Hey .. I would consider buying one for sure! .. Waiting for it
Very excited about this hope it does come to the UK
Definitely I'll like to buy it. 🙌🏻
Okay so I love the idea and I would have one.... however no release until next year is a bit rubbish. But I think I'd rather wait for this than get the Samsung 5 or pixel fold
Thanks, great stuff!
What an interessting concept with the handbag. This is thinking out of the box
Great review as always!
I absolutely love the look of this device, and have been excited about it for some time. If the battery can last me through a day, and if the camera can trade blows with the Samsung Fold4 and Fold5, then I will absolutely get one when it gets a UK release…
…oh, and I’ll go for the (slightly thicker) purple one as it looks amazing!
Excelent! Waiting for the global version
This would be an immediate buy for me. I would even import it from China if it had google app support. I've been sticking with the the z fold 3 waiting for a folding phone with some real improvements and this one has them for sure.
Reckon it will get google support?
It should get Google store support once the phone hits the international market sometime in 2024. I can not wait to get my hands on one!
@@DominicOlmsted so until then we use gbox
The Pixel Fold is more compact height-wise and opens out to a landscape screen, which I think is ideal for folables.
There are guides on how you can add Google support + apps on imported version.
i just switched from iphone to the Z Fold 5 and im in love with the Fold but this phone looks so good!!! looks like ill be sticking to Foldables from now on
i have fold 5 and its great. its only smaller than the regular phone and a bit heavier but over all its good. however if those vivo has lighter and same quality and larger and cheaper, i might have it but maybe after 2 years.... hehe
@bogart5131 yea I believe there's better options than the Z Fold. I switched from an iPhone so to me it was a huge! Upgrade lol maybe in a year or 2 I'll be looking at other foldables. One thing I know for sure is I'm not going back to apple.
You KILLED it with this video, as I have been thinking of getting the Honor Magic V2. I may just have import this. Just wondering if you know if the Google Play Store can be installed onto this or if there are work arounds available?? Thanks. 📱📱🤳🤳♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
i think this is one of the best implementation before the rollable version is ready. would love one day to have a bigger foldable screen for watching a video
If it comes to Japan good chance Honor will take my money . Totally interested in the V2!
Absolutely gorgeous
I just wish more phone carriers were open to having this being for sale, especially for a bigger variety in North America. Want to be able to get one when renewing my contract instead of having to spend almost $2000 on one.
Your videos look absolutely stellar on my Galaxy Note9, easily the best I've seen on TH-cam. Everything looks so crisp and vibrant and no letterboxing like on other channels. What camera setup are you using?
More tech news please 😊 have a nice day 😊
Definitely will buy!! I was actually in holiday in china and now I deeply regret now buying it 😅
I'm definitely interested if it comes with some of those software issues resolved. I might also hold out to see if anyone tests its dust and water resistance as it's not certified.
its chinese brand. itll be not resolved at all.
@@hydzior😢
@@hydzior lol. it's true though.
Won't be a problem if you know how to erase bloatwares especially if you have a development hobby like us
I think Honor should now release V3 worldwide next year within 1 or 2 months after China launch rather than releasing V2 at the end of this year, if they are planning to release.
Man it sucks that this isn't sold in the US
The domestic version has their own harmony os system. Honor are company of only 10,000 employees.
If USA didn’t ban huawei, Honor would have still been under the huawei umbrella of 200,000 employees.
Honor need the extra 6 months to fine tune and iron out any potential security flaws, that some people or parties may test.
Did u download Google by yourself using APK.
@@gold6813only 😅
Next year mate! First quarter of 2024 for V2
Never been so excited about a phone so much in couple of years,
I'm definitely excited by Huawei again I'm definitely thinking of getting one hopefully I'll buy it when prices come down to around $1000,
Even second hand, I hope it works in U.S. and UK. I wonder if the U.S. carriers will support the bands.
The purse is like the best of Nokia back in the day. Pure lovely madness. I think it's terrible but so hope they make it. We need more crazy af ideas.
Great content. Would you recommend waiting to see if the global one comes out or get the Chinese version?
Thank you for the review! Can you split the screen horizontally when using 2 apps?
Couldn't wait for it so opted for the z fold 5
I'd definitely buy one!
Hi. In your opinion, is Honor Magic V2 or Xiaomi mix fold 3 better?
I would definitely buy it if it becomes available. Perhaps you can tell Honor that there is a lot of interest in the phone worldwide. Thx for the video
I ordered mine. Yesterday in UK
Very good review. The best of both worlds is the expression you used and clearly defines the V2 as well as the Honor Magic 5 pro which I own. The V2 for not being a compromise and the HM 5 pro for being the best android (my biased opinion), but also have some ios links glued to it which are perfeclty implemented.
Great vid thanks.
I travelling to China, wondering whether to buy from there and bring back to UK. Apart from no hardware support here what other risks are there?
I want this phone so much!
It really depends on the underlying concept... Do you want a normal phone + small tablet (Honor V2)... Do you want a smaller phone + a bigger phone (Google Pixel) ... Or do you want to always use the bigger screen once both your hands are free and just need a highly functional one hand outside screen (Fold)...
This is the foldable that most makes sense to me so far.
this phone looks absolutely gorgeous
That's very nice lite Foldable. I would show it off as an Honor Magic V2 Chain. 😅 Thanks for sharing.
Samsung needs to do this for their fold! It would be an immediate buy for me.
Wish it had an under display camera on the main screen instead of the hole punch. Love that feature on the Galaxy Folds. Otherwise this is perfect!
Yes, the outboard screen sells me on this phone. Possibly the thinness of the phone as well. If I'm carrying a flag ship phone. currently the samsung s22, and the honor is basically the same size but has a table view. Sold.
I'd buy the Magic V2 tomorrow if it were available and worked on Verizon.
Yes, I would buy one!
Hi, could you make a video related on Honor Magic V2 it stylus usage. So far no one is showing the stylus function. I still waiting for global release. Thank you in advance.
Was thinking about getting the Fold 5 but might have to wait until the end of the year to see if this launches stateside
I would be definitely interested if it comes to the uk😮😊
I imported mine to the US, few things I don't like and something's I .iss from the z fold 4 but it's still a breath of fresh air
Big fan of your videos Tom! Would you also make a video about Xiaomi Mix Fold 3? Would love to hear your comments about that beauty!
Soon.. Im gonna have 1 of this beautiful phone
I'd be interested to know more about the graphite battery technology used in this foldable and what the advantageous are other than thinness.
energy density means thinner and more capacity
Would like to know does the 'Parallel Space' (the security space that allowed you to open a same app at the same time) still in the software? Coz I saw this function from China Reviewer. Hopefully they remain this function in their Global Rom.
Hi there, how do you get the Google apps on the Honor phone? Cheers
Unsure if I missed it, but does it support the Google suite of apps? Or do you have to make a plan, like with Huawei?
Opening was solid 👌
Yes I would definitely buy it even though I just bought the Honor Magic 5 Pro lol
Are you using the Chinese Rom? If I buy the chinese version, what set backs will I face with regards to using google services?
I would consider buying it despite owning s23 Ultra. The Honor Magic V2 will be gold for me in terms of reading articles and using it like an tablet. Phone and tablet in 1. This is fabulous. China please bring it to UK.
I see you got the google play store installed. also how are the notifications for those apps? any issues?
This looks so fluid. Plus thin, big battery. I'm sold. Put Samsung software on there and sold...
How did you get the play store on there?
If there is a question, i've always wanted to know in every new devices;
how did they solve the heating disperse when heating sinks isn't powerful enough.
Tom, have you got your hands on the Xiaomi mix fold 3? If so what do you think?
meanwhile samsung released the same fold 4 as the 5 😑😑😑😑 samsung getting lazy same as apple what a shame
Finally, a foldable I actually want!
Im loving the look but my worry is that thin things bend and yeah just wondering how rugged it would be.
I'd love to buy it.
huawei/Honor engineers working fulltime releasing the new Kirin chips and these beast of a phone. Kudos to them
Yes I am very interested
Hey tech chap. Any suggestions for a mid level tablets for a reasonable price.
Definitely interested. This is the only phone giving me pause on buying the new iPhone 15.
Wish there was a US version. That’s how a foldable should be. People thought I was crazy when I said we should have a foldable with the same size screen as a standard smartphone. Samsung needs to get on this. They would kill the market with this design.
The OnePlus
US would ban it because its a sub-brand of Huawei
Americans are stuck with a revolutionary action button iPhone pro!
This looks like something I would like to daily drive. In about 2 years when I upgrade I hope a phone like this is more affordable.
Huawei has bin number always for MI in all standard phones and foldables, bt this time have also to pick Hornor magic V2 fold be with mi too, thnx the company for their efforts for the perfect product😊😊😊😘😘😘👌👌👌💯💯💯💯💥💥💥👍👍👍
Can't help but notice GMS installed. When this launches in China, will we be able to import with GMS pre-installed like in your demo?
Y the hinge was not reviewed? What is the opening angle range for the phone
Would definitely be getting this if i could get on contract in UK this year. I would even buy outright if I had to, and if I could find a reputable grey import then would seriously consider. If however, it's not here until say Feb then I'll be waiting for the next big thing.
Been waiting for something exciting since mate 20 pro, this and mate x5 to a lesser factor are first to make me sit up and look. All other foldables to date have looked like expensive novelties and rough prototypes. A rollable phone would be great too. I first heard about this future tech in early 2000s, 20 years later and they've still not got it to market.
Id buy the honor magic V 4 probably, honor software sucks like old samsung software or similar, but I'd buy it but i would look for 8.25 inch unfold screen for me and better cameras with bigger sebsors, which would subsequently makes it thicker but it is where they should go
This is impressive!
Great video How did you get google serves on it?
I have a xiaomi mix fold 3 and the way i get controls on the front screen while using the main cameras is
Unfold the device
Open camera
Switch it to selfie camera
Now press that button to preview on the cover screen.
Hope this works.
