What the reviewers said

Phonandroid FR

No scoreSep 5, 2024

A very good, innovative foldable that is thinner and brighter than its predecessor, but expensive for the benefits it brings.

  • Thinnest foldable on the market when closed and open
  • Improved external screen brightness, up to 760 nits manual
  • Lighter than predecessor, with IPX8 water protection
  • Faster French launch, competitive against Pixel and Galaxy Fold
  • Larger battery capacity and bigger, better durability
  • Priced at 1999.90 euros, same as predecessor, feels expensive
  • No charger included in the box
  • Telephoto struggles with moving subjects
  • Ultra-wide camera weaker than expected, especially at night
  • Display settings not separately adjustable for inner and outer screens

4.5/5Sep 5, 2024

Honor's thinnest and lightest foldable yet, with solid battery life, strong performance and capable cameras. MagicOS 8 lacks the polish of rivals.

  • Impressively thin and light for a book-style foldable
  • Improved durability including IPX8 water resistance to 2.5m
  • All-day battery life with fast charging
  • Near crease-less inner display with flagship specs
  • Capable triple rear camera system
  • Camera performance varies in low-light conditions
  • MagicOS 8 lacks polish of alternative foldables
  • Magic Portal AI features not very helpful

Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
