A real-life image of the Honor Magic V Flip has surfaced on the web, which confirms the previously rumored design. You can see the large external display of the phone that the woman is using to take a selfie with the rear camera. Upon zooming in you will see there is a separate camera module, which is an addition to the previously exposed render. The cutout for the second one is only slightly bigger than a punch-hole front camera. The larger cutout houses a single lens. So, this is also a dual-camera setup. There is an Honor branding on the bottom half of the phone, however, the ‘Magic V Flip’ name is speculated.
According to a recent rumor, the phone
could be released as soon as in two weeks. People familiar with the development
claimed that the company is purchasing the largest external screen that has
ever been placed in a flip phone. It looks like the external display will be a
major highlight of the alleged Honor Magic V Flip.
According to reports, the company has been
working on the project for the last two years and it could come with its unique
identity. The phone will be 15-17mm thick when closed. For context, the Huawei
Pocket 2 (review) that was launched in February this year, measures a similar
15.3mm when closed. A flip phone with model number “LRA-AN00” has recently
passed 3C certification, which is expected to be the Honor Magic V Flip.
According to the listing, the device supports 66W fast charging.
The phone reportedly has two different
versions (a high-end and a relatively affordable one). So, it could be possible
that the leaked image we are seeing is the high-end version with an extra
camera module on the back while the previously exposed render represents the
base version.
