Honor is set to unveil its next foldable, the Magic V5, at its July 2 launch event. Ahead of the launch, the company has now confirmed that the foldable will feature a 6100mAh “Qinghai Lake” blade battery using a high-silicon anode with 25% silicon content, which Honor says is a first for mass production.
Honor Magic V5 has the biggest battery in foldables
This capacity surpasses other foldables in the market. The Oppo Find N5, for instance, comes with a 5,600mAh battery, while the soon-to-be-announced Vivo X Fold 5 is expected to carry a 6,000mAh unit.
By comparison, Honor’s battery is not only larger but is also backed by what the company calls the “AI Dujiangyan power management system.” It’s a proprietary solution that Honor claims gives the Magic V5 the “longest battery life” in a foldable yet, though the claim needs to be tested.
The company appears to be prioritizing power efficiency and battery capacity without compromising on form factor. Despite the unusually large battery for a foldable, the Magic V5 reportedly measures just 8.8mm thick when folded and weighs around 217 grams, making it one of the thinnest and lightest foldables around.
The phone is also expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and will feature side-mounted fingerprint unlocking. For cameras, it includes the AiMAGE imaging system with a variable aperture (F1.6–F2.5), focal lengths from 13mm to 70mm, and a 3X optical periscope zoom.
Pre-orders for the Magic V5 are already live on JD.com, with the official announcement scheduled for July 2 at 7 PM during the Honor Magic V5 and AI Ecological Terminal Conference. Honor hasn’t shared pricing or regional availability yet.
