Honor Magic V Flip 2 is expected to launch soon as a successor to the company’s Magic V Flip clamshell foldable, which was unveiled in June 2024. The purported smartphone is expected to come with a sub-flagship Snapdragon 8 series chipset. It is expected to feature a larger battery, improved charging speed and significantly improved cameras. A tipster has now leaked the battery size and charging details of the upcoming phone. The company has yet to confirm the launch details of the handset.
Honor Magic V Flip 2 Battery, Charging Specifications (Expected)
Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) claimed in a Weibo post that the Honor Magic V Flip 2 will likely feature a 5,500mAh battery. If this claim is accurate, it will be the biggest battery in a clamshell foldable handset to date, including its predecessor and the recently launched Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7.
The upcoming smartphone is expected to support 80W wired fast charging. Notably, the Honor Magic V Flip is backed by a 4,800mAh battery with support for 66W wired fast charging. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is equipped with a 4,300mAh battery and it supports 25W fast charging.
An older leak from the same tipster claimed that the Honor Magic V Flip 2 may come with a sub-flagship Snapdragon 8 series chipset. It could be the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 SoC. The handset will likely sport a 6.8-inch Full-HD+ LTPO inner screen and a 4-inch full-HD+ LTPO cover display. For optics, it could get a dual outer camera unit, led by a 50-megapixel 1/1.5-inch primary sensor. The handset is expected to launch in China in August.
The current Honor Magic V Flip has a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. It features a 50-megapixel main sensor alongside a 12-megapixel ultrawide shooter at the back, and a 50-megapixel selfie camera. It has a 6.80-inch main display and a 4-inch outer screen. For security, it is equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. In China, it starts at CNY 4,999 (roughly Rs. 57,000) for the 12GB + 256GB option and goes up to CNY 5,999 (roughly Rs. 70,000) for the 12GB + 1TB variant.
