The leaked renders of the Honor Magic V Flip show a large display with a lid and a circular camera island

The Honor Magic V Flip is reportedly being developed as the first foldable smartphone from the Chinese brand. Honor has yet to confirm the release details, but ahead of that, an alleged render and rendering of the phone’s body have leaked online, offering a glimpse of its possible design. The protective case indicates a massive display cover for the Honor Magic V Flip. It appears to have a round camera island. The foldable device is expected to launch in June.

Well-known tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) has published an alleged render of the Honor Magic V Flip and its case. The leaked case image hints that Honor is providing a massive display case for its foldable phone. The alleged handset could get the largest external display among flip-top smartphones. This is consistent with previous leaks.

A purported render of the phone shared by a whistleblower shows a circular camera module with a single LED flash. The display appears to wrap around the camera module, similar to the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra.

Honor is expected to announce the Magic V Flip next month alongside the Honor 200 series in China. It is rumored to have a 4,500mAh dual-cell battery and a dual primary camera setup. It may debut as the thinnest and lightest flip phone ever. It will likely go up against the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Motorola Razr 2024 in markets outside of China.

Rumors about Honor’s flip phone have been around for quite some time. According to rumors, it will appear in the first half of this year. In February, Honor CEO George Zhao confirmed that the company is working on a flip-flop phone that will be released later this year alongside a smart ring. The brand sells several hardcover books on global markets.
