Honor has been one of the big stars of the MWC. The Chinese firm has taken advantage of the fair that is taking place these days in Barcelona to show its new products, namely the Honor MagicPad 4, the peculiar Honor Robot Phone and its new foldable, the Honor Magic V6.
This is the product that concerns us in these lines and its proposal is clear: more battery and better performance without sacrificing thickness or durability, at least on paper. The terminal will be launched during the second half of the year, so we will still have to wait to get our hands on it. With the introductions made, let’s get to know him a little better.

Honor has managed to further reduce the thickness of its terminal. It is not a spectacular figure, but it is striking that the company has managed to reduce the 4.1 millimeters of the Magic V5 to four millimeters in the Magic V6. That is the thickness unfolded, but the dynamics are the same with the mobile folded. From 8.8 mm we went to 8.75 millimeters, a change that, without being spectacular or excessively noticeable, is a statement of intent on the part of the company.
The internal screen has won over and is, undoubtedly, the main protagonist. The panel has SGS Minimized Crease certification and, according to the firm, reduces fold depth by 44% Compared to the previous generation, which was already really good. Beyond that, the panel remains more or less the same, that is, the firm has iterated where there is the most room for improvement: in the fold.
The external screen, for its part, grows slightly diagonally and maintains many of the specifications. The striking part, which in fact shares with the internal part, is the anti-reflective layer. Samsung has shown that this technology works and is useful when viewing the panel in strong light situations, and now Honor has implemented it on both screens. According to the company, it reduces reflectivity by up to 1.5%.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 reaches foldables

As expected, Honor has chosen to put the latest in chips into its device. Thus, the Honor Magic V6 incorporates the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 516 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal storage. Roughly speaking, it is the configuration to be expected in every high-end terminal of 2026. The entire connectivity suite, needless to say, is more than guaranteed.
The most interesting change is in the battery. Honor has once again collaborated with ATL for its fifth-generation silicon-carbon batteries. These have a silicon content of 25% and a 6,600 mAh capacitysomething that attracts attention in a device that is barely four millimeters thick. Fast charging amounts to 80% and wireless fast charging remains at 66W.
When it comes to cameras, the Chinese firm has opted for a configuration similar to last year. Few changes here: 50 megapixel main and wide-angle sensor, 64 megapixel periscope with optical zoom and 20 megapixel internal cameras. The key, of course, is to be able to use the rear camera for selfies thanks to the foldable format.
Versions and Price of the Honor Magic V6
