Magic V Flip review: Honor's first clamshell — a 4.0-inch cover screen rivalling Razr 60 Ultra.
The 4-inch-cover clamshell that started it all.
Magic V Flip was first to ship the 4.0-inch cover screen format Motorola later matched in the Razr 60 Ultra. Against Galaxy Z Flip 6 (smaller cover, polished SW) and Razr 60 Ultra (newer chip), it remains the value-leading large-cover flip in China.

- 4.0" cover screen ties Razr 60 Ultra for largest cover.
- 5,000-nit peak on both screens.

- IPX8 submersion-rated.
- China-only retail at launch.
- 4,800 mAh tight for the 6.8" inner display.
- MagicOS 8 still has CN bundled services.
- 50 W wireless is impressive but 66 W wired trails Razr.
