Honor is going all in for the upcoming Magic V3 global launch. After throwing down with Samsung and taking jabs at its Galaxy Z Fold 6, the company is now going after an official Guinness World Record. It plans to leverage the lightweight design of the Honor Magic V3 to build the talent House of Cards.

Honor Magic V3 Guinness World Record

1. Honor Magic V3’s Guinness World Record Attempt

The Chinese brand announced that it is planning on challenging a new world record with Bryan Berg, who is a Guinness World Record holder. Honor plans to attempt to build the tallest house of cards with Berg, but there’s a surprising catch. The Honor Magic V3 foldable phone will be placed on top of the structure to showcase its lightweight design. To recall, the Magic V3 weighs just 226 grams, which is pretty lightweight considering it is an inward folding phone.

2. But is it actually possible?

With the Magic V3, Honor is bringing innovation to the design of foldable smartphones. Smartphones like the Magic V3 with a primary large folding screen and a cover display are often seen as bulky and hefty. Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a great example of this with its 239 grams in weight. When folded, it measures 12.1mm in thickness. In comparison, the Magic V3 is only 9.2mm thick.

3. Here’s how you can watch the world record attempt

Honor will be going after the Guinness World Record with Bryan Berg tomorrow (22nd August 2024) at 15:00 CEST. This attempt will be streamed on the brand’s official X account as well as YouTube. The record breaking challenge will have Bryan attempt to build the tallest house of cards in 8 hours without using any glue, so you can check it out with the links we’ve provided above.
