Honor’s upcoming launch event will be held on Nov. 23 in China. The event will see the arrival of a couple of new products, including the Honor 80 series and its second-foldable phone. Initial reports had dubbed the device the Honor Magic V2, but recent rumours claim that it will be called the Magic Vs. Official teasers rolled out today confirmed that Honor’s upcoming foldable phone will indeed be marketed as the Honor Magic Vs in China.

The teaser video of the Magic Vs shows that it will sport an in-ward folding design and be equipped with a golden chassis. Its top edge seems to feature a pair of microphones and a speaker grille. The teaser does hint that it will be a thinner device as compared to the original model.

To recall, the original Honor Magic V foldable phone weighed around 293 grams and had a thickness of 14.33mm. Unfortunately, the company hasn’t shared any information on the specifications of the device.

Rumors surrounding the Honor Magic Vs have claimed that it will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset. Under the hood, it will have a 5,000mAh battery, which may support 66W fast charging. The device is likely to weigh around 261 grams. It appears that it may run on the Android 13 OS with the upcoming Magic UI 7.0 on top. Shown below is a leaked schematic of the Magic Vs that recently appeared on Weibo.
