The forthcoming Honor Magic V4, reportedly launching in June, aims to compete with Oppo’s Find N5, which currently holds the title of the thinnest foldable phone at under 9mm. The Magic V4 is rumored to feature a remarkable camera system, including a 50 MP main camera and a 200 MP periscope telephoto lens. It will sport an 8-inch folding screen and a 6.45-inch cover display, both with 120 Hz LTPO technology. Additional features include an embedded fingerprint scanner, wireless charging, satellite connectivity, and an IPX8 water resistance rating, powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC.
Last year, the Honor Magic V3 set the standard as the slimmest book-style foldable to date, but now it’s been surpassed by Oppo’s Find N5. You might be curious about how Honor plans to respond.
A recent rumor from China suggests that the Honor Magic V4, which is expected to arrive around June, will certainly make a comeback. It is rumored to measure under 9mm in thickness when folded, potentially matching or even exceeding the Find N5 in this aspect.

The Magic V4 is also set to feature a remarkable camera setup, including a 50 MP main sensor with a 1/1.5″ type sensor and a 200 MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom utilizing a 1/1.4″ type sensor.
The folding display is expected to be approximately 8 inches, with a cover screen around 6.45 inches, both supporting 120 Hz refresh rates and LTPO technology. Additionally, the fingerprint scanner will be integrated into the power button on the side, and the device will support wireless charging, satellite connectivity, and is anticipated to achieve an IPX8 rating for water resistance.
It will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, likely the version with seven CPU cores like the one found in the Find N5. If this information holds true, the Magic V4 is poised to be a compelling player in the book-style foldable market later this year. We will keep you updated as more details emerge.
