As a launch bonus, each plan also comes bundled with a free HONOR Pad X8a valued at PHP 7,999.
According to Stephen Cheng, HONOR Philippines Vice President, “HONOR Magic V5 represents the cutting edge of smartphone industrial design and innovation, including the world’s first mass-produced 6,100mAh silicon-carbon battery with 25% silicon content. Empowered by AI, the agentic YOYO assistant introduces new AI features to help users make the most of the large screens.”
Slimmer, Lighter, Stronger
The HONOR Magic V5 continues the brand’s commitment to pushing foldable technology forward. At just 8.8mm when folded and weighing only 217g, it stands as the thinnest and lightest inward-folding smartphone globally. These design milestones were achieved through AI-powered manufacturing processes that enhance both precision and reliability, ensuring an almost crease-free fold.
Beyond aesthetics, the HONOR Magic V5 also prioritizes resilience. The phone carries IP58 and IP59 ratings, combining dust and water resistance. HONOR’s Carbon Fiber Reinforced Inner Display Panel and Anti-scratch NanoCrystal Shield deliver extra protection, while its internal carbon fiber layer with 380GPa deformation resistance works as a shock absorber. The HONOR Super Steel Hinge further enhances structural integrity with a tensile strength of 2300MPa, guaranteeing smoother and sturdier folding action over time.
Productivity at Your Fingertips
Foldable smartphones are often celebrated for multitasking, and the HONOR Magic V5 doesn’t disappoint. The device unfolds into a spacious 7.95-inch display that makes multitasking seamless, whether you’re managing multiple apps, working on documents, or enjoying entertainment. For quick tasks on the move, the 6.43-inch outer screen offers instant access to essentials without needing to open the phone fully.
Industry-First Silicon-Carbon Battery
Battery innovation has always been a challenge for foldables, but HONOR sets a new benchmark with its 6,100mAh silicon-carbon battery, exclusive to the 1TB model. By integrating a 25% silicon content, this battery achieves an energy density of 901Wh/L, making it one of the most efficient batteries ever fitted into a smartphone.
Working hand in hand with the HONOR E2 Power Enhanced Chip and the SoC voltage regulator, the Magic V5 ensures stability, efficient energy use, and reliable thermal management. Charging is just as impressive, with 66W wired and 50W wireless HONOR SuperCharge capabilities ensuring you’re never tethered to a charger for long.
Pro-Level Photography with Falcon Camera System
Photography fans will appreciate the HONOR Magic V5’s advanced camera suite powered by the HONOR AI Falcon Camera System. The triple-lens setup features a 64MP Periscope Telephoto Camera, a 50MP Wide Camera, and a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera. This combination allows for versatility in capturing everything from sweeping landscapes to zoomed-in details, with AI-driven processing ensuring professional-quality shots across various lighting conditions.
