The Honor Magic V5, expected to launch by the end of June as the successor to the Magic V3, has now appeared on China’s 3C certification platform—revealing a key detail.
According to the listing (via Xpertpick), two models—Honor MTN-AN00 and MTN-AN80—support 80W fast charging, which is an upgrade over the 66W support seen on the Magic V3. This listing also reaffirms rumors of the phone’s imminent launch in China.
To recall, the Magic V3 featured a 5,150mAh silicon-carbon (Si/C) battery. The upcoming Magic V5 is rumored to pack a 6,100mAh unit, thanks to advancements in battery tech. Paired with a more efficient chipset, this should translate to longer battery life and less downtime from charging.
The Magic V5 was also recently spotted in the Geekbench database, confirming the presence of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip—a step up from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in the V3. The phone scored over 3,000 and 9,000 in single- and multi-core tests, respectively.
What makes the Magic V5 even more exciting is the rumored 4,400mAh battery on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold7—the same as its predecessor. In contrast, Honor seems to be pushing the boundaries on both battery size and design.
While the Magic V3 measured 4.35/4.4mm when opened and 9.2/9.3mm when closed, the Magic V5 is rumored to go under 9mm when closed. For comparison, the Oppo Find N5, currently the slimmest foldable, comes in at 8.9mm. If the rumors hold true, Honor could reclaim its title as the maker of the slimmest book-style foldable. We’re excited to see how this plays out.
