Just a month ago, Honor revealed its latest technological advancement with the Magic 2, an impressively thin foldable smartphone. The company has bold plans to introduce this state-of-the-art device to global markets in the upcoming month. Honor Magic V2 aims to directly challenge Huawei’s Mate X3 foldable phone and also compete with well-established players like Samsung and Xiaomi.
Several well-known brands, including Samsung, OPPO, Vivo, Xiaomi, and Honor, have entered the foldable phone arena with models featuring inward folding displays. However, Huawei has distinguished itself by adopting a unique outward folding design, showcased in the Mate Xs series. This approach sets it apart, providing a slimmer and more streamlined profile compared to the conventional inward folding models. The single, expansive foldable screen contributes to this distinctiveness.
In a strategic move to rival Huawei’s offering, Honor has dedicated its efforts to crafting an outward foldable phone, which is already in the works. A recent development saw an Honor device, identified by the model number VCA-AN00, successfully obtaining network licensing from telecom authorities. Insiders have given this model the codename “Victoria,” widely believed to represent Honor’s forthcoming outward foldable phone.
Anticipated to be Honor’s groundbreaking outward foldable display smartphone, the “Victoria” stands out from devices with smaller folding screens by featuring a spacious 2K eye-friendly display. If we follow Huawei’s naming patterns, the device could potentially hit the market as the Honor Magic Vs2. This strategic decision underscores Honor’s unwavering commitment to embracing innovation and going head-to-head with the pioneers of foldable technology in the market.
