• HONOR has launched the Magic V3 foldable in China.
• The new foldable is just 9.2mm thin and weighs 226 grams, putting it in line with some conventional smartphones.
• The Magic V3 starts at ~$1,240 in its home market.

The HONOR Magic V2 made a big splash last year due to its ultra-thin design for a foldable phone, coming in at just 9.9mm. The Chinese manufacturer isnt resting on its laurels, as it just announced the Magic V3.

HONORs new foldable phone measures just 9.2mm thin, according to the company. By contrast, Samsung touts the Galaxy Z Fold 6 as its thinnest Fold ever at 12.1mm. The device also weighs 226 grams, versus the Z Fold 6s 239 grams. That also makes it lighter than the Galaxy S24 Ultra (232 grams). In saying so, these figures apply to the Velvet Black variant, while other variants offer a still svelte 9.3mm thickness and 230-gram weight.
