| Honor Magic V5: The World's Thinnest Foldable Phone with Flagship Features. |
Honor has officially launched the Magic V5, and it's making waves in the tech world as the thinnest foldable smartphone ever released.
But here's the fine print—the title applies specifically to the white variant, and only if we don’t count the slightly raised rear camera module.
Sleek, Ultra-Thin Design That Feels Premium

When folded, the Magic V5 measures just 8.8 mm thick, which is 0.1 mm thinner than the Oppo Find N5.
It’s a small difference on paper, but the gentle curve of the frame gives it a noticeably sleeker feel in hand. Other color variants are a bit thicker at 9 mm, likely due to different coating materials used.
Unfolded, the device is still impressively slim at 4.1 mm, making it slightly thinner than the 4.2 mm Oppo Find N5. However, it’s not the thinnest in the unfolded category—Huawei Mate XT still leads with 3.6 mm at its slimmest point.
High-Resolution Cameras with Professional-Level Optics

One standout feature is the camera setup. Yes, the camera bump is slightly more pronounced, nearly twice as much as the Oppo competitor. But for a good reason—Honor packed it with high-end sensors, including:
-
64 MP periscope telephoto lens
-
50 MP ultra-wide lens
-
50 MP main sensor
-
20 MP dual front-facing cameras
This combination ensures exceptional photo and video quality, even in low-light conditions, making it perfect for content creators and photography enthusiasts.
