I second this 100%. It's Probably the most detailed review of a phone that I have seen to date. If you work on your entertainment portion of your review, you are going to kill it! Great Job @maddada
Great analisys!!! . Nowadays big RUclipsrs usually make very bad reviews: read specs, some pictures without context an opinion without even have used it and done. This are the reviews we need. I'm between vivo x fold 3 Pro China (cheaper now than honor), V3 China or wait for v3 global (vivo global is too expensive for not even having easy warranty because is imported) Between vivo and Honor... I exactly get the same points as you... I think I'll buy the v3 by the outer screen ratio and the thickness. I'll wait until sept to see the prices and decide. Thanks again
Thank you my friend, I'm just sharing my honest opinion. I don't gain anything if you buy this or the Vivo, just want to help by providing my perspective as a Fold power user and first time chinese device buyer. Read the document attached that shows all of the issues with chinese phones too. If you don't have any deal breakers there then you can be more confident in your decision. Which country are you from btw?
@@maddada I'm from Spain. Coming from galaxy z fold 2(never found a big jump in Samsung to upgrade) . Yes I had China phones before(Meizu, ZTE, Huawei p40...) and I have played with them a lot(bootloader, root, roms, adb, Magisk...) and I know the issues...today all phones are bootloader locked so no more fun 🤣. They are nowadays more closed to global phones (they come with partial Google services installed but inactive) but not many workarounds as before with root. Z fold 6 256gb is already in 1260€(1380$) in Spain shops (3 warranty years)... Hope this make v3 global don't go to high.
After watching this review, I am going to do everything I can to get my hands on the Honor Magic V3 Global. I have a Pixel Pro 9 Fold on pre-order, but I don't think it will hold a candle in design and weight.
Best of luck with your channel, one of the most comprehensive view of the software. I hope when you get the international version you can share your thoughts. Well done for a great review.
Thank you for all the details and the HONEST review. I was about to purchase the Vivo chinese ROM (to save some), but you said it right, I'm already paying much for a foldable so why not pay a little bit more and save all the hassle. Thanks again mate!
Thank you very much Bro, you have solved my question Marks 😂, I appreciate your time and help.

Global version of the V3 is coming very soon. Your video is great to consider getting the international one. Please continue this kind of content. It's very helpful. I saw another content about early release of V3 global version and he stated that it has bugs here and there especially with animations and multitasking. What's your experience with it? Many thanks! 😊
It's very stable for me, didn't face any notable bugs with animations or multitasking. They're also releasing a lot of updates to stabilize it and improve the battery life and camera performance (which is already good). I got 2 updates within 2 weeks. So I'm glad to see that they're focusing on this phone.
Thanks for doing this test. HONOR is underrated . You gotta try the red magic 9 , I have it and it can play every console game I have at 60 fps it's unbelievable
I think it's only there if you enable navigation bar? I have it if I do that. But on the Samsung even when enabling navigation gestures I still have the rotation Icon pop up. There's a different way to do it though which is "Smart rotate" (rotates based on the user's face orientation).
Really like your deep dive! I want to know your thoughts on the Vivo X Fold 3 pro with the gamesir controller, does it fit? And if so how's the lag on the Bluetooth for gaming? Like good enough for FPS games? Or more for slower RPG's?
Yes should fit fine, lag is not bad at all if you're not a veery competitive person. There's other game sir controllers that plug into usbc maybe one of those could work for fps games, but I didn't look into that.
Yes, the V2 is wonderful, wish I got it instead of the Fold 4. The V3 is that + water protection, bit thinner, bit faster, better cameras, wireless charging, better hinge, and brighter screens. Hope they offer great deals for trading-in when the Global V3 comes out where you're located because I would personally go for it.
@@maddada all makes sense. i was expecting this to be better, the only concern is the software. with the V2 international it is basically a samsung experience ... with the chinese version, previoulsy i had some challenges. If they do trade in ... then all-in :). Great stuff One "feature" i would really hoping for was an honor case that can host the pen ... without .. as an ex Note use, it is very "un natural" to carry the pen with me all the time in another bag or pocket ... Thanks again for the video!
I believe there are cases that can carry the pen on Ali express but it adds bulk which I dislike. I'm looking forward to seeing what they have coming software-wise for the global V3.
Great video, I'm not a fan of Hanz tech talk as he always criticizes Honor. I may be a bit bias as I have a honor magic 5 pro but I use to be a Samsung fan boy. Love the Chinese flagships, they're really pushing the limits with what is possible with smartphones 💯
I don't mind if he criticizes any company, I'm not getting paid to defend Honor or Samsung or who ever. But his "comparison" was so rushed and full of errors. 1- He missed to mention the Pen support on both screens, which is one of the biggest features for the Honor, and the main reason I went with it. 2- Also you didn't mention the thickness and weight difference where the Honor is better. 3- He clearly had the "beauty" feature enabled on the Magic V3 but disabled on the Vivo in the photo comparisons which ruined that whole segment. (the photos on my V3 have a lot of details and do not look cartoonish like he showed) 4- Hans said that it failed to pass antutu and heating up a lot but you can see it's passing fine and playing games without too many issues so I'm not sure what he's doing or if he's even on the last update. Average dad did another comparison video yesterday where he mentioned that the Honor has Android Auto already (it doesn't work yet) and forgot to mention the pen. But other than that it was a much more fair and balanced review.
@@maddada he has always been critical of honor though. At the moment Vivo is probably top of the Chinese flagships no question. He just never gives them credit for anything, so I feel it's never a fair comparison whenever he reviews Honor products IMO...
It is one of the best detailed reviews. I appreciate that you took the time to do it all. Would the android auto work on the international version? My car supports android auto. And I have the fold 5, would you recommend the change to the V3?
@@nooralnmn4366 Yes, Android Auto works great on the Global V3. It's up to you if you want to upgrade or not. The outer screen, weight, and thickness of my Fold 4 were killing me so I'm so happy with the switch. The Fold 5 is similar in some of these aspects so you'd feel a massive difference for sure. Moving from One UI to Magic OS was the biggest question mark for me but I really enjoy using it on the V3. I would say try the phone in the store if you can and then make up your mind.
Thanks for the video! Just a comment when you mentioned the app drawer @2:19, I just got my HMv3 and I was able to create folders in the app drawer in the exact same manner as in the Classic view. Not sure why you mentioned folders were not allowed in the Honor app drawer
@@amirt.4668 Can you organize the apps in the app drawer inside folders? When I hold on an app in the app drawer it takes me to the homescreen. On Samsung it allows you to create folders inside the app drawer itself. I just tested and it's still the same way.
Hi Maddada. I'm wondering if you ended up getting the global version and if you will make a follow-up video review on this awesome device that you have been using for more than a month? Maybe include an in-depth review of the cameras, prolonged gaming performance, OS performance, and any bugs, plus state how you feel about the OS compared to Samsung's OneUI that you originally came from with the ZFold4. Thanks!
@@fchaabo I recommend getting global for everyone because the price is similar to global (unless you find a Chinese one for cheap and don't mind the stuff that doesn't work and the headaches with workarounds) I'm not getting the global version because I found workarounds for 90% of the issues that I had with the Chinese version (wrote them in the Notion document in my pinned comment under the video) I'll lose about $450 if I sell my Chinese V3 and get the Global one and don't gain much. Also Chinese has a few small advantages like 16gb ram vs 12, and call recording (not available on Global version in my country)

@@tclinshiqiang Which country are you located in? And why can you only get Chinese? I recommend getting global except if you can get Chinese for MUCH cheaper and you don't mind the missing features.

Hi there! How much time does the battery need, for the very first charge, to bring out maximum performance? Furthermore, can you link the glasses you bought for V3? Thanks in advance!
I didn't understand the first question. For the second one you can search on aliexpress to find glass for the V3. This is where I bought mine but you can find others: a.aliexpress.com/_opjRVQX
Yes it has both of those, see the first video I made to see all of the settings and features. I'll do a video about multi-tasking and advanced features soon.
Would you recommend waiting for Fold 6 SE with the better aspect ratio, if it releases in 3-4 months? I know it will be out in China and Korea on release for now. Or it wouldn't matter as this is still a better deal?
@@orien2v2 it's up to you honestly. There's a lot of good options coming soon too. X Fold 4 Pro and OnePlus Open 2 are coming soon too you can compare the 3 and make your choice then.
So.. I just got my V3 today and set it up. I am EXTREMELY POSITIVE about this phone. I am from Europe, so was a bit sceptic about the CN SW, but almost everything is working! You can also disable like 99% of chinese bloatware. What im most surprised is, how the software is fluid, very very fast in the same time and dynamic 120Hz mode works perfectly! Even in youtube, once video is playing, its 60hz, but once i touch comments, its 120hz.. my Vivo X100 Pro had problem with that and it was always 60hz even in high mode. Wow... Also, changing from outer to inner screen is seamless, like it was not like this even on my X Fold3 Pro or Fold6, that I tried. Honor really nailed it. Hopefully it will be great in my upcoming use of it, but so far, after I set up all, its really like REALLY good. :)
@@maddada it's also thanks to you! I'll reach out if something. Thanks! Just can't find esim option, but I guess it's not here even though some sites mention that it should be.
@@vincentchan5190It's by using an app called button mapper and adding a custom button, then setting double tapping the button to play/pause (need to pay 3$ to unlock pro features in that app)
Here you go but check out the ratings on the others and buy 3 at least as it's a bit hard to apply: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007375851378.html Also don't let the glue go in the hinge or speakers (Take it to a mobile shop if you've never done it before)
If LG is still around, i’m curious what they will bring to the foldable game. LG was pretty interesting. A shame they fold their mobile business. HTC are back, HMD/Nokia are back. It would be nice if LG comes back.
Here you go, but check the other options on the site. 3D Curved High Quality Full Glue UV Tempered Glass For Honor Magic V VS2 V3 VS V2 RSR Ultimate Screen Protector a.aliexpress.com/_opyPB49 Most important thing is to put tape on the parts you don't want the glue to go into (hinge, speakers, charger, front phone speaker, etc) and watch a video on how to apply uv glue protector.
Thank you for the review and work arounds! How did you get the pen to act as a remote shutter and play/pause media? Mine doesn't do that out of the box.
Just get "Button Mapper", you need to pay to unlock custom buttons mapping and add the pen's button there by clicking add then double tapping the button. You can disable button Mapper in the notes app so double tapping the button switches to the eraser there as usual. You also can set holding volume up to camera and holding volume down to flash. (I just have it disabled in some apps and also have it not activate when the volume panel is showing, this way I can tap one then hold to not activate camera or flash) Hope this helped, all the best.
Thanks for the video brother, quick question, i want to upgrade from s23U to Honor magic v3, but i am afraid not to have same user experience from the UI itself, would u recommend me taking this step or should i wait for Samsung to make a clean foldable phone (probably in 2 years xD)
@@mosala7001 I would recommend it to be honest. This was the biggest thing I was afraid of to be honest (I was on the Fold 4 before) but the hardware you get is so worth it. I actually don't find myself missing anything on Magic OS as they now have near feature parity with One UI. (Most features are on both. Samsung has some extra things and Honor has some extra things)
Battery life is amazing, it lasts the whole day on medium use, but if you use it very heavily and drain the battery, you can bring it back from 0 to 60 with only ~22 mins of charging.
Hello, I really want to buy global v3 but I'm seeing a lot of people on reddit complaining about wireless android auto and/or galaxy watch not connecting properly with magic v2. This is a deal breaker. Can you do a video specifically on this topic? Thanks!
I'm sorry if you mentioned this already, but I have the Samsung pin from the z fold 3. It is a bit older, but did you say your Samsung pin worked with this phone? Thanks!
Can you give us an recommendation - can we use the V3 without a case or is it to slippery for that? How thick/heavy is the V3 with the included case? Thanks 👍
Not really heavy with the included case and you get protection for the cameras and the hinge, added grip, and a kickstand built in. So I would recommend using it since this is an expensive device and you wouldn't want to damage it :) Honestly the slipperiness depends on how dry your hands are, if they're dry then the back is slippery if not then it's not that slippery, but you can put on a skin from dbrand or others if you want it to be grippy without a case.
I read a lot about people complaining about the camera. Is it worth buying? I am really afraid the photos especially about people, portraits are in terrible quality. What are your thoughts about it?
@@risadinha1982 Pictures of people come out awesome 95% of the time if you know how to use the camera app. There's only 1 case where AI is applied too strong. It happens indoors when lighting is bad, and you're taking the picture from some distance away. You just need to watch out for this until Honor release an update to fix this. You can take the Pic using high res mode or portrait and it won't be affected by this issue. This is only until honor fix it which I hope is soon since they've already released 3 updates that improved the camera performance. All the best
It's called Gamesir X2, I believe the newer version is out, watch some reviews for it. And yes I believe you could make it work with Mobile Legends just needs some set up the first time.
Also with the charging. Do you charge to 80-90% to prolong the battery life? I was bit confused with the smart charge function in the settings as it still allows you to still charge to 100%? And is it ok to charge to 100%?
@@adyt2775 No, I don't charge to 80% manually. Even with that feature on you will still charge to 100 but it does it in a smart way, basically it waits until the time when you usually wake up to change the last 20%.
Thanks bro. So there is no need to charge manually to 80% to prolong the battery then? So if I charge to 100% with this feature on it will prolong battery?
@@adyt2775 this only applies for when you are charging when sleeping. So try to disconnect it if you're charging at other times and don't need the 100%
There are many sellers online but how do I tell which is the global and which is the chinese version? there are some passing off the chinese version as global
@@TheGoldenDonuttt the global is only 512gb with 12gb ram and the Chinese is 256gb+12gb, or 512gb+16gb ram, or 1tb+16gb. Check out Average dad or Wonda they're both trusted and have (global) mentioned there.
Great informative video. Thanks and keep up the good work. Would you please post the direct link to the pen you are using? Also how did you get Samsung pen to work? i couldn't find any guide for that. Thanks Aagain
Does the included case especially the front part work with the tempered glass? Please test this and let me know. I really want to use a full case + tempered glass. Thanks.
@@maddada thanks man. That's helpful to know. one more question about Magic desktop - is it true that it's max supported resolution is only 1920x1080? (Samsung dex supports 4k resolution).
It has AI features like translation for voice notes and transcribing but I think they'll add more later. Didn't find a notes summary feature mentioned anywhere online.. are your sure it's on the pad? You can use Swiftkey keyboard's built in AI features for great composing or rewriting. Hope they'll build in more things like this in the default notes app. I usually stick to Notion and their AI because I find it very advanced and powerful compared to everything else out there.
Is there anyway how to open an app in max screen size when opening from notifications? For example when i open whatsapp from notifications it opens as a small screen Also how does the IR blaster work? Thanks
It opens in a floating window when the screen is unfolded. I like it this way but I hope they add a setting to change it. You can quickly drag down from the bottom of the floating window to make it Fullscreen. The IR works using an app called Smart Remote that comes with the phone. You can find other apps in the play store that use it too.
@@t20009 on the Global version you can double tap the power button to go to the camera (always works) and on the Chinese version you can bind double taping the volume down to take you to the camera (requires no media to be playing) You can also use button mapper to add more hot key actions too.
I put pictures at around the 30 min mark showing the phones on a scale and they're all a bit heavier than advertised in that video. I'll try to get a scale and measure it soon because it might be their scale that's wrong.
It's still amazing. Love the phone even more now that Gemini and assistant actions are working perfectly (have it bound to holding volume up using button mapper) Also have the following: Vol up double tap opens the wallet. Vol down hold toggles flash. Vol down double tap opens the camera. I disabled these in the camera/phone/when volume bar is showing so I can tap once to show the bar and then hold to increase the volume quickly. The cameras are improving with software, got 2 updates already targeting this and I can notice the main cameras colors and quality is better now. Group photos look really nice and people are asking for my phone to take the photos instead of the iPhones or S24s because the pictures look nice on vibrant mode, even when the lighting isn't great. I really have almost nothing to complain about with this phone, maybe the inner screen brightness could be brighter next time (or they could just add an "extra brightness mode" that increases the brightness at the cost of the colors like Samsung has. And after extensive usage I slightly prefer the S Pen's tip + holding the button to erase instead of double tapping to toggle eraser. Also would like the ability to customize the themes more. (I made 5 themes for Magic OS 8 but Samsung allows more customization if you use theme forest) Hey Google, Android Auto, and Phone Link require some workarounds or don't work so I would recommend getting the Global version for most people unless you can find the Chinese version used for a very good price. All the best
@@amirt.4668 no. You can use shiziku instead of rooting. Btw repainter stopped working. See my latest video about theming the V3. I show there a different method (using colorblendr)
It's working perfect on the global version. The error I'm getting says it's because I'm using a Chinese device. I highly recommend everyone get global and not Chinese if you're thinking of getting any phone.
It is known that the previous version v2 does not allow the installation of any external launcher and this is what happens to me on my device. My question to you is, does the new version face the same problem? Because I tried many times to install Nova Launcher on v2 version but it refused. Can you install Nova Launcher and activate it on v3?
If you're on global V2 or V3 then you can easily set any launcher. (confirmed with multiple people) If you're on Chinese version (v2 or v3) then it's not possible.
@@maddada I love it but got unlucky with it. It's overheating regularly and shuts down almost on daily basis. Being in the UAE not having any service sucks. Hope I ll get some support online tho.
@@Muhairi89 you can fix delayed notifications, see the notion see in pinned comment. Sadly you can't flash global rom on Chinese that's why I recommend everyone just get global and avoid the headaches. Tell me if you still miss notifications after doing the steps in the notion doc.
@@محمدويوسف-ل7غ I really like mine and I'm very happy that I canceled my Fold 6 preorder and bought the V3 instead, but it's all personal preference so try it out in the store. I recommend the V3 especially if it's officially released in your country and if your hate the narrow screen on the Fold 6. The Fold 6 is okay other than the thickness and narrow screen which I couldn't stand.
The device very durable. Look up "GSM arena durability test Honor Magic V3" I really like the software especially on the global version. A lot of Google's AI features are well implemented. And I don't find myself missing much coming from One UI. The hardware is MUCH better than the Fold 6 so getting used to the software is really worth it IMO.

Hope it'll come some day, importing the European version to the US could be an option if you're on a compatible carrier.
Really like your deep dive! I want to know your thoughts on the Vivo X Fold 3 pro with the gamesir controller, does it fit? And if so how's the lag on the Bluetooth for gaming? Like good enough for FPS games? Or more for slower RPG's?
Yes should fit fine, lag is not bad at all if you're not a veery competitive person. There's other game sir controllers that plug into usbc maybe one of those could work for fps games, but I didn't look into that.
Thanks a lot, but you dint talk about display on Netflix and the stereo speakers.
just got the chinese version, i appreciate the detailed review.
Congrats man, please tell me how you like it after you've tried it for a bit.
Thanks for the video!! Btw, you can show screen refresh rate in Dev. settings :)
Great video 👍 I have an Honor v2 ... And it is the greatest phone ever but this looks even better
Yes, the V2 is wonderful, wish I got it instead of the Fold 4. The V3 is that + water protection, bit thinner, bit faster, better cameras, wireless charging, better hinge, and brighter screens.
Hope they offer great deals for trading-in when the Global V3 comes out where you're located because I would personally go for it.
@@maddada all makes sense. i was expecting this to be better, the only concern is the software. with the V2 international it is basically a samsung experience ... with the chinese version, previoulsy i had some challenges. If they do trade in ... then all-in :). Great stuff
One "feature" i would really hoping for was an honor case that can host the pen ... without .. as an ex Note use, it is very "un natural" to carry the pen with me all the time in another bag or pocket ...
Thanks again for the video!
I believe there are cases that can carry the pen on Ali express but it adds bulk which I dislike. I'm looking forward to seeing what they have coming software-wise for the global V3.
Thank you very much for this great video!
You're welcome!
I like the way you give a very balanced review. And it was pretty in-depth. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

@@maddada I hope so too. Your videos helped me make the decision! Jumping from a Z fold 5
Hi thanks for the cool review, does it get heated when u play games? And how is the battery in general?
@@misabd8069 battery is great, and check out the gaming test I linked in the description. It didn't get overly hot in games.
Great video, I'm not a fan of Hanz tech talk as he always criticizes Honor. I may be a bit bias as I have a honor magic 5 pro but I use to be a Samsung fan boy. Love the Chinese flagships, they're really pushing the limits with what is possible with smartphones 💯
I don't mind if he criticizes any company, I'm not getting paid to defend Honor or Samsung or who ever. But his "comparison" was so rushed and full of errors.
1- He missed to mention the Pen support on both screens, which is one of the biggest features for the Honor, and the main reason I went with it.
2- Also you didn't mention the thickness and weight difference where the Honor is better.
3- He clearly had the "beauty" feature enabled on the Magic V3 but disabled on the Vivo in the photo comparisons which ruined that whole segment. (the photos on my V3 have a lot of details and do not look cartoonish like he showed)
4- Hans said that it failed to pass antutu and heating up a lot but you can see it's passing fine and playing games without too many issues so I'm not sure what he's doing or if he's even on the last update.
Average dad did another comparison video yesterday where he mentioned that the Honor has Android Auto already (it doesn't work yet) and forgot to mention the pen.
But other than that it was a much more fair and balanced review.
@@maddada he has always been critical of honor though. At the moment Vivo is probably top of the Chinese flagships no question. He just never gives them credit for anything, so I feel it's never a fair comparison whenever he reviews Honor products IMO...
It is one of the best detailed reviews. I appreciate that you took the time to do it all. Would the android auto work on the international version? My car supports android auto. And I have the fold 5, would you recommend the change to the V3?
@@nooralnmn4366 Yes, Android Auto works great on the Global V3.
It's up to you if you want to upgrade or not. The outer screen, weight, and thickness of my Fold 4 were killing me so I'm so happy with the switch. The Fold 5 is similar in some of these aspects so you'd feel a massive difference for sure.
Moving from One UI to Magic OS was the biggest question mark for me but I really enjoy using it on the V3. I would say try the phone in the store if you can and then make up your mind.
Thanks for the video! Just a comment when you mentioned the app drawer @2:19, I just got my HMv3 and I was able to create folders in the app drawer in the exact same manner as in the Classic view. Not sure why you mentioned folders were not allowed in the Honor app drawer
@@amirt.4668 Can you organize the apps in the app drawer inside folders? When I hold on an app in the app drawer it takes me to the homescreen. On Samsung it allows you to create folders inside the app drawer itself.
I just tested and it's still the same way.
Nice work again. Can you do a side by side brightness comparison...say the Samsung Fold and Vivo vs the Honor V3? Thanks
Hi Maddada. I'm wondering if you ended up getting the global version and if you will make a follow-up video review on this awesome device that you have been using for more than a month? Maybe include an in-depth review of the cameras, prolonged gaming performance, OS performance, and any bugs, plus state how you feel about the OS compared to Samsung's OneUI that you originally came from with the ZFold4. Thanks!
@@fchaabo I recommend getting global for everyone because the price is similar to global (unless you find a Chinese one for cheap and don't mind the stuff that doesn't work and the headaches with workarounds)
I'm not getting the global version because I found workarounds for 90% of the issues that I had with the Chinese version (wrote them in the Notion document in my pinned comment under the video)
I'll lose about $450 if I sell my Chinese V3 and get the Global one and don't gain much. Also Chinese has a few small advantages like 16gb ram vs 12, and call recording (not available on Global version in my country)

Hi there! How much time does the battery need, for the very first charge, to bring out maximum performance? Furthermore, can you link the glasses you bought for V3? Thanks in advance!
I didn't understand the first question.
For the second one you can search on aliexpress to find glass for the V3.
This is where I bought mine but you can find others: a.aliexpress.com/_opjRVQX
@@maddada right out of the box, the V3 needs its first battery charge. So, how long did your V3 stayed plugged on the cable? Thanks bro!
How is multitasking like? Can you do a demo doing apps side by side? And does it have app pairs functionally?
Yes it has both of those, see the first video I made to see all of the settings and features.
I'll do a video about multi-tasking and advanced features soon.
Nice informative video!
Thanks!
Great review thanks! How did you do the widgets for notes(which app) and calendar dat please ?
Would you recommend waiting for Fold 6 SE with the better aspect ratio, if it releases in 3-4 months? I know it will be out in China and Korea on release for now. Or it wouldn't matter as this is still a better deal?
@@orien2v2 it's up to you honestly.
There's a lot of good options coming soon too.
X Fold 4 Pro and OnePlus Open 2 are coming soon too you can compare the 3 and make your choice then.

Yes, if the international version is releasing in your country or in a nearby country then I highly recommend it.
Thank you for the great Video, can you please send the link of screen protector you bought
Check the other comments please already posted it.
V3 released worldwide on September 2nd, presentation in Germany on August 19th.
Is there any official information about this?
@@tomeknapierala5246 yes, go to the official website
So.. I just got my V3 today and set it up. I am EXTREMELY POSITIVE about this phone. I am from Europe, so was a bit sceptic about the CN SW, but almost everything is working! You can also disable like 99% of chinese bloatware. What im most surprised is, how the software is fluid, very very fast in the same time and dynamic 120Hz mode works perfectly! Even in youtube, once video is playing, its 60hz, but once i touch comments, its 120hz.. my Vivo X100 Pro had problem with that and it was always 60hz even in high mode. Wow... Also, changing from outer to inner screen is seamless, like it was not like this even on my X Fold3 Pro or Fold6, that I tried. Honor really nailed it. Hopefully it will be great in my upcoming use of it, but so far, after I set up all, its really like REALLY good. :)
Congrats on the new phone mate! Hope you like it and I'm happy to chitchat if you face any issues or have any questions :) All the best!
@@maddada it's also thanks to you! I'll reach out if something. Thanks! Just can't find esim option, but I guess it's not here even though some sites mention that it should be.

Great review!
Thank you!
Do you have the Ali express link for the screen protector you have?
Here you go but check out the ratings on the others and buy 3 at least as it's a bit hard to apply: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007375851378.html
Also don't let the glue go in the hinge or speakers (Take it to a mobile shop if you've never done it before)

Can we ask what is the calendar widget you are using on the left side of your inner screen? Looks very elegant. Thanks!
Yea its the best one I found, very customizable and matches the ticktick widget

Can you edit pictures in Lightroom with this pen?
What is the best way to check the compatible bands? Would the bands be different on the global version? I have T-Mobile now but might switch to AT&T
@@thomassanders788 Ask on reddit honor sub. You should get the Global V3 if interested. Since the price is very close to the CN one.
If LG is still around, i’m curious what they will bring to the foldable game. LG was pretty interesting. A shame they fold their mobile business. HTC are back, HMD/Nokia are back. It would be nice if LG comes back.
Wow, they stopped making phones in 2020 😮
Yep, the more competition the better honestly. I loved the LG G5 and swappable modules idea.
Please give a link to the glass screen protector ordered....there are some out there that don't fit well, so a recommended one will help. Thanks

Most important thing is to put tape on the parts you don't want the glue to go into (hinge, speakers, charger, front phone speaker, etc) and watch a video on how to apply uv glue protector.
thanks mate.
You're welcome!
Love your video mate! Thank you!
Is there a cover available to buy that can also house the pen? Like Samsung have for their fold phone.
Thanks!
Yes there's some on Ali Express, but I prefer to put it in my shirt's pocket or in my small shoulder bag that I always carry.
Thank you for the review and work arounds! How did you get the pen to act as a remote shutter and play/pause media? Mine doesn't do that out of the box.
Just get "Button Mapper", you need to pay to unlock custom buttons mapping and add the pen's button there by clicking add then double tapping the button. You can disable button Mapper in the notes app so double tapping the button switches to the eraser there as usual.
You also can set holding volume up to camera and holding volume down to flash. (I just have it disabled in some apps and also have it not activate when the volume panel is showing, this way I can tap one then hold to not activate camera or flash)
Hope this helped, all the best.
@@maddada Thank you! I found this app called Key Mapper which is free and also has very good support of conditional constraints.
Might check it out, thank you!

Id like to see you test asphalt legends on this phone, great vid btw
Can you make a video dedicated to how multitasking works on the phone and compare it to samsung fold?
Sure will do it soon
Thanks for the video brother, quick question, i want to upgrade from s23U to Honor magic v3, but i am afraid not to have same user experience from the UI itself, would u recommend me taking this step or should i wait for Samsung to make a clean foldable phone (probably in 2 years xD)
@@mosala7001 I would recommend it to be honest. This was the biggest thing I was afraid of to be honest (I was on the Fold 4 before) but the hardware you get is so worth it. I actually don't find myself missing anything on Magic OS as they now have near feature parity with One UI. (Most features are on both. Samsung has some extra things and Honor has some extra things)
how's the battery life? and photos taken in low light as well as video in low light?
Battery life is amazing, it lasts the whole day on medium use, but if you use it very heavily and drain the battery, you can bring it back from 0 to 60 with only ~22 mins of charging.
Hello, I really want to buy global v3 but I'm seeing a lot of people on reddit complaining about wireless android auto and/or galaxy watch not connecting properly with magic v2. This is a deal breaker. Can you do a video specifically on this topic? Thanks!
If you get the global V3 then you shouldn't have any issues with both of these.
@@maddada appreciate your prompt response!
Anytime :)
I'm sorry if you mentioned this already, but I have the Samsung pin from the z fold 3. It is a bit older, but did you say your Samsung pin worked with this phone? Thanks!
No, only the Honor Magic Pen works on this device (you can get it from Honor stores or from Ali express)
Can you give us an recommendation - can we use the V3 without a case or is it to slippery for that? How thick/heavy is the V3 with the included case? Thanks 👍
Not really heavy with the included case and you get protection for the cameras and the hinge, added grip, and a kickstand built in. So I would recommend using it since this is an expensive device and you wouldn't want to damage it :)
Honestly the slipperiness depends on how dry your hands are, if they're dry then the back is slippery if not then it's not that slippery, but you can put on a skin from dbrand or others if you want it to be grippy without a case.
@@maddada How thick is the V3 with the original back cover and which weight got both in total? Thanks 🙏
I read a lot about people complaining about the camera. Is it worth buying? I am really afraid the photos especially about people, portraits are in terrible quality. What are your thoughts about it?
@@risadinha1982 Pictures of people come out awesome 95% of the time if you know how to use the camera app.
There's only 1 case where AI is applied too strong. It happens indoors when lighting is bad, and you're taking the picture from some distance away.
You just need to watch out for this until Honor release an update to fix this.
You can take the Pic using high res mode or portrait and it won't be affected by this issue.
This is only until honor fix it which I hope is soon since they've already released 3 updates that improved the camera performance.
All the best
Any clue if Samsung notes could be installed on magic v3 ? And sync well with Other galaxy tablets?
If not, what are you using to sync all notes?
No that's not possible. I use Squid for notes which syncs to google drive automatically.
Is 'Mobile Legends' supported by the controller you are using?.. also can u share the amazon link of the controller
It's called Gamesir X2, I believe the newer version is out, watch some reviews for it.
And yes I believe you could make it work with Mobile Legends just needs some set up the first time.

Hello please from where did you get the white color ?
Also with the charging. Do you charge to 80-90% to prolong the battery life?
I was bit confused with the smart charge function in the settings as it still allows you to still charge to 100%? And is it ok to charge to 100%?
@@adyt2775 No, I don't charge to 80% manually.
Even with that feature on you will still charge to 100 but it does it in a smart way, basically it waits until the time when you usually wake up to change the last 20%.
Thanks bro.
So there is no need to charge manually to 80% to prolong the battery then?
So if I charge to 100% with this feature on it will prolong battery?
@@adyt2775 this only applies for when you are charging when sleeping. So try to disconnect it if you're charging at other times and don't need the 100%
Thanks bro.. so disconnect like at 80-90%?
@@adyt2775 that's better but you mostly won't need to charge more than once a day unless you use the phone very intensively.

Does the vivo x fold 3 pro have a desktop mode like honor magic desktop?
Nope
@@maddada thanks man. That's helpful to know. one more question about Magic desktop - is it true that it's max supported resolution is only 1920x1080? (Samsung dex supports 4k resolution).
I tried it today and it supports 4k in both mirroring and desktop modes.
Are there a lot of free font choices? Thanks =)
Yes, there's a ton in the themes store.
And there's a way to install any Google font as a system font too.
When magic V3 take notes, can it do note summary and ai features like magic pad 2 does? thanks
It has AI features like translation for voice notes and transcribing but I think they'll add more later. Didn't find a notes summary feature mentioned anywhere online.. are your sure it's on the pad?
You can use Swiftkey keyboard's built in AI features for great composing or rewriting. Hope they'll build in more things like this in the default notes app.
I usually stick to Notion and their AI because I find it very advanced and powerful compared to everything else out there.
are you saying out the box you long press powerbutton for flash and double press for camera?
No it's using an app called button mapper (highly recommend it)
Is there anyway how to open an app in max screen size when opening from notifications?
For example when i open whatsapp from notifications it opens as a small screen
Also how does the IR blaster work?
Thanks
It opens in a floating window when the screen is unfolded. I like it this way but I hope they add a setting to change it. You can quickly drag down from the bottom of the floating window to make it Fullscreen.
The IR works using an app called Smart Remote that comes with the phone. You can find other apps in the play store that use it too.
@@maddada thanks for explaining.
Yes coming from a fold 3 it feels odd when an app opens as a floating screen
So you can't double press the power or volume buttons to open the camera?
@@t20009 on the Global version you can double tap the power button to go to the camera (always works) and on the Chinese version you can bind double taping the volume down to take you to the camera (requires no media to be playing)
You can also use button mapper to add more hot key actions too.
Great video @maddada 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks for the great overview - can you also verify the weight of V3?(226g)
I put pictures at around the 30 min mark showing the phones on a scale and they're all a bit heavier than advertised in that video.

@@maddadaThanks 🙏 right, I missed that, great video 🎉🎉🎉 34:34
@@maddada That would be perfect, when we can verify the weight, thanks in advance 🙏
@@maddada Still happy with the V3? Any news regarding good/bad things? Thanks ✅
It's still amazing.
Love the phone even more now that Gemini and assistant actions are working perfectly (have it bound to holding volume up using button mapper)
Also have the following:
Vol up double tap opens the wallet.
Vol down hold toggles flash.
Vol down double tap opens the camera.
I disabled these in the camera/phone/when volume bar is showing so I can tap once to show the bar and then hold to increase the volume quickly.
The cameras are improving with software, got 2 updates already targeting this and I can notice the main cameras colors and quality is better now. Group photos look really nice and people are asking for my phone to take the photos instead of the iPhones or S24s because the pictures look nice on vibrant mode, even when the lighting isn't great.
I really have almost nothing to complain about with this phone, maybe the inner screen brightness could be brighter next time (or they could just add an "extra brightness mode" that increases the brightness at the cost of the colors like Samsung has.
And after extensive usage I slightly prefer the S Pen's tip + holding the button to erase instead of double tapping to toggle eraser.
Also would like the ability to customize the themes more. (I made 5 themes for Magic OS 8 but Samsung allows more customization if you use theme forest)
Hey Google, Android Auto, and Phone Link require some workarounds or don't work so I would recommend getting the Global version for most people unless you can find the Chinese version used for a very good price.
All the best

Hi bro
How did you get your Honor ID, it seems to be hard, does it work without Honor ID ?
Check the notion document in the pinned comment I wrote the method (it's very easy and just needs an email)
It is known that the previous version v2 does not allow the installation of any external launcher and this is what happens to me on my device. My question to you is, does the new version face the same problem? Because I tried many times to install Nova Launcher on v2 version but it refused. Can you install Nova Launcher and activate it on v3?
If you're on global V2 or V3 then you can easily set any launcher. (confirmed with multiple people)
If you're on Chinese version (v2 or v3) then it's not possible.
