Honor Sets New Foldable Benchmark With Magic V6 as Lenovo Shows Legion Go Fold Concept at MWC

Honor outlines a near‑term release for Magic V6, with Lenovo’s foldable handheld still only a concept.

Overview

  • Honor’s Magic V6 claims the thinnest foldable title at 4mm open and 8.75mm closed (white finish) and is the first foldable rated IP68 and IP69.
  • The V6 uses a fifth‑generation silicon‑carbon cell rated at 6,600mAh with 80W wired and 66W wireless charging, paired with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
  • Displays measure 7.95 inches inside and 6.52 inches outside at up to 120Hz, with strengthened hinge materials and reduced crease depth reported.
  • Pricing is unannounced; Honor staff indicated a China launch in March and a wider rollout a few months later, though some outlets report second‑half availability.
  • Honor demoed a Robot Phone with a 200MP sensor on a gimbal arm and confirmed plans to launch it, and Lenovo’s Legion Go Fold concept showed an 11.6-inch POLED that folds to 7.7 inches with detachable controllers and no release or price set.
