On June 13, Honor will unveil the Magic V Flip in China. Ahead of the launch, the brand is busy revealing key details about the device. The company recently took to its Weibo account to release a teaser video to highlight new features of the Honor Magic V Flip’s cover screen.

The video showcases the Magic V Flip’s external screen, touted as the “largest in the industry,” which allows users to directly open commonly used applications without unfolding the device. These apps include maps, short videos, social communications, and food delivery services.

What’s particularly interesting about the display is that around 35 percent of the external screen functions independently to display items such as time and notifications, as shown in the images below. The remaining portion seemingly allows users to run apps in an aspect ratio similar to the main display.

To recall, the Find N3 Flip, which debuted last year, featured a 22:9 aspect ratio display on the inside, while its cover screen offered a 17:9 aspect ratio. The outer screen could mimic the taller aspect ratio of the internal screen. This facilitated a smoother transition between the two screens, allowing apps optimized for the internal screen’s aspect ratio to function comfortably on the cover screen. However, while the Find N3 Flip offered a cover screen with a high aspect ratio, the area under the camera module remained unutilized.

The Magic V Flip offers a dual-screen experience on its cover display, making it the best implementation of the cover screen compared to other flip-style foldable phones with large cover displays. Since it allows users to do many things on the outer screen, it reduces the need to open and use the main screen unless really required, such as for more complex tasks or larger viewing areas.

On the specs front, the Magic V Flip is expected to arrive with 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB / 512 GB / 1 TB storage options, a 4,800mAh battery with 66W fast charging, and a 50-megapixel main camera with OIS support. It will be sold in black, white, and pink shades. There will be a limited-edition variant offering 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage.
