The first thing that jumps out is the dual cameras on the cover screen. The original Magic V Flip had one large sensor and one smaller one, stacked vertically. The new model levels the playing field with two equally sized sensors. This new setup frees up more room for the external screen, which leaks suggest will measure over 4 inches.
As for colors, the phone will come in four options, including a special edition designed by Jimmy Choo – yep, the same designer whose shoes are a dream for many around the world. Clearly, Honor is aiming at fashion lovers who want a phone that doubles as a style statement.

Other than the design and launch date, Honor hasn’t spilled many details yet. Luckily, leaks give us a peek at what to expect: a 5,500 mAh battery with 80W wired charging. If that’s accurate, the Magic V Flip 2 would handily beat the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in battery capacity, which only packs 4,300 mAh.
Performance-wise, don’t expect Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite in the Honor flip; leaks point to the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 instead. Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 runs on the Exynos 2500, which isn’t exactly flagship-level either, so the two could end up pretty evenly matched. But we’ll know for sure once the Magic V Flip 2 is out in the wild.
One area where Samsung might still have the upper hand? Availability. The original Magic V Flip never launched internationally, so we’ll have to wait and see whether Honor is ready to take on Samsung globally or if the new flip will stay mostly a China-only affair, too.
