HONOR set to unveil new Magic V3 and VS3 foldable smartphones on July 12

HONOR has announced that it will unveil its next generation of foldable smartphones, the HONOR Magic V3 and HONOR Magic Vs3, on October 12, at an event that will also see the unveiling of the new MagicBook Art 14 Notebook and the MagicPad 2 tablet. Last January, the Chinese firm launched its previous foldable phone in Europe, the HONOR Magic V2, which featured a 5,000mAh Silicon-Carbon dual battery, 9.9 mm thickness when closed, and a hinge capable of withstanding more than 400,000 folds.

The company has now announced via its Weibo account that it will launch the successor family of the previous model on October 12, at an event taking place in the Chinese city of Shenzhen. The event will showcase “the folding and thinness technology that will once again usher in new breakthroughs” for HONOR. In addition to the new HONOR Magic V3 and HONOR Magic Vs3 smartphones, the event will also feature the launch of a laptop, HONOR MagicBook Art 14, and a new tablet, HONOR MagicPad 2. While not many details have been given, it has been specified that the MagicPad 2 will introduce a feature focused on eye protection with blurring using Artificial Intelligence (AI).
