Following its announcement at MWC 2023, Honor confirmed the arrival of its Honor Magic Vs foldable smartphone.
Honor is aggressively promoting its reach in the international market, and the recent MWC 2023 was an ideal showcase to expand its advertising impact. After the official presentation of the Magic 5 Pro and the Lite version, Honor Peru spokespersons confirmed to RPP the arrival in our country of the new Magic Vs along with the rest of the catalog.
The smartphone was already presented in November 2022, but Honor took advantage of its presence at Mobile World Congress to add international support to the second generation of its foldable device with Magic OS 7.1, the branded version of Android 13.
For David Moheno, Communications Director at Honor LATAM, “the higher the quality of products they have in a given market, this obliges brands to launch better products; but they really make a difference through research and development.”
Honor Magic Vs, the international leap in the folding world
We’re facing a bold commitment by Honor to compete in a market dominated by Samsung for nearly half a decade with the Fold series. Note that we are talking about a premium chip on which brands like Oppo, Huawei, Vivo, Xiaomi and even Tecno Mobile have decided to approach with clear proposals.
Faced with this expanding market, Honor has three differences that theoretically give it an advantage over the other competitors that accompany Samsung. Firstly, we have the international availability of this foldable device, which not only ensures that the user can be in contact with the experience center team, but also has local support.
The second difference is research and development. The articulated structure reduces the device’s opening and closing mechanism to just 4 components, a process that can be done 400,000 times without the Magic Vs having any problems. Furthermore, the “Zero Gap” construction fits neatly on both sides of the screen, although there is still work to be done to make the device more stable in both “laptop mode” and “stool mode”.
The third is the company’s motive. Although it was founded almost a decade ago, less than three years ago it was involved in a race to break away from its obvious Huawei reference and stand out in the industry. With a name that is starting to sound more and more in the region, Honor points to a solid strategy that includes a complete catalog, stores in Peru, support and other factors that other Chinese companies with the same presence in our country have not yet achieved. found.
“Over the past 20 years, the mobile phone industry has integrated solutions from other industries. For example, with a car scanner, camera, recorder, wallet, etc., the hardware is becoming more and more powerful. Today, I believe that the smartphone foldable offers two different user experiences [traditional smartphone and tablet],” George Zhao, global CEO of HONOR, told RPP and other media.
Magic Vs Peru will be unveiled in the coming weeks, and we’re waiting for a review unit to tell you everything you need to know about the team.
