Honor Magic V3 (standard) Price in South Africa
Honor just dropped the Magic V3 and it's looking mighty thin. This ain't your grandpa's clunky foldable – at just 9.2mm thin, the Magic V3 folds up almost invisibly and unfolds into a near-tablet-sized screen. That's right, they've out-thinned Samsung's latest Fold by a whole millimeter. But it's not all about the slim figure; the V3 packs a powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, a long-lasting battery with crazy-fast charging, and a camera system that won't disappoint. Is this the foldable phone that finally tempts us normies to ditch the slabs? We'll have to wait for a global release date, but color us intrigued – and maybe a little impressed.
