Spot on review! I had this as well as the z fold 6 at the same time to compare... I decided to returned the fold within the 1st hour of comparison! I have had mine for 3 weeks and concur with everything that you said about it! My worse day of battery was 8+ hours of on screen with 39% battery remaining! I've had several 9 hrs and 41 min with 25% remaining... and I was hitting it hard all day just to see if i could kill it! Its a thin beast and works flawlessly in the US on ATT! Well done review!
Great video! Watching this on my Chinese ROM Magic V3. It's a beast with its 16gb RAM and 1tb storage. I'm particularly impressed with the dimensions of the device and the camera set.
Great video, well done! And what a sleek looking phone - love the design and overall look… impressively thin, not overly disturbing camera bump and whats surprising is the pen that actually looks like a real pen!
Thank you so much. You are totally right. It really is a marvel of engineering and the bundled gifts make it a bo brainer. If your in the market this is your device.
This phone has blown my mind to be honest. The V2 was great too, but I got a decent carrier deal on the V3 and upgraded. Worth the upgrade in terms of camera performance and a little bit due to the SD8V3. Other than that you can't do wrong with either. They literally tick all the boxes and stomp on the PFold 1 and Samsung Fold I've used
Nice overview. I agree on all your points. Had Fold 2/3 and Pixel Fold. Now the v3 and its like 2 generations better. You forgot to mention one of the other advantages over the Z Fold. The Pen works on the outer screen as well! So you can write quick notes direct on the screen without opening it. It is amazing how slim the device is. People don't realize its a foldable when you hand it to them to look at.
@RussRyan7713 is the pen as good as an S pen? I'm very much addicted to it for work (had Note 10+ and now a z fold 4) and I'm afraid to get V3 and realise I was better of with Samsung!
@@Jam-nv5gm as a pen for taking notes it's great. There is a good video online showing the differences. Mainly the s pen is more customisable if want all that. For me the V3 is fine for writing notes and using it just to interact with the phone.
I wish Magic Portal would allow me to "pin" a favorite SMS contact so I could just drag something into it and drop on that person. I know I can click "share" but that would be more fun
Have you any marks on the front screen using the case without the front protector? I find the hinge protector drags accross the front screen when unfolding
I did not place the front protector on the V3 as it's very flimsy and have 0 scuffs or marks. The screen protector had micro scratches but that is unavoidable
Love the video, I have the Z Fold 6 (and OnePlus Open), I friggin hate the Galaxy. The front screen is useless, the battery and charging speeds are pathetic, the inner crease is a joke.
The only thing that bothers me is that portrait photos have locked blurred background. No way to change it or turn it off after its taken. if its not right, its ruined forever, so i can never use it for important moments. Other manufacturers have that feature for a long time now.
And unlike the pixel fold 9... It has 120htz LTPO front screen and UFS 4.0 storage. Also some reviewers are claiming average battery life which is not my experience. It's best battery life iv ever had and iv come from a 13 pro max.
Here are 10 reasons to buy the Honor Magic V3, as presented in the video: * Large front screen: The phone has a 6.7-inch front screen, which is larger than many other foldable phones. This makes it easier to use the phone without having to open it up. * Versatile case: The phone comes with a case that has a kickstand and a hinge protector. This makes it easy to watch videos or use the phone hands-free. * High refresh rate display: The phone has a 120Hz refresh rate on both the front and inner screens. This makes the phone feel smooth and responsive to use. * Powerful processor: The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, which is one of the most powerful processors available for Android phones. This means that the phone can handle even the most demanding tasks. * AI integration: The phone has AI features that can be used to search for items, edit photos and videos, and share content with others. * Long battery life: The phone has a 5,150mAh battery, which is one of the largest batteries available on a foldable phone. This means that the phone can last for a full day of use. * Fast charging: The phone supports 66W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. This means that you can quickly charge the phone if you need to. * Stylus support: The phone supports a stylus, which can be used for taking notes, drawing, and other tasks. The stylus is included as a free gift when you order the phone from Honor Direct. * Magic Ring service: The phone has a service called Magic Ring that allows you to connect to other Honor devices and use them as a remote. This can be useful for transferring files or controlling your phone from a tablet. * Affordable price: The phone is priced competitively compared to other foldable phones on the market. I hope this is helpful!
That the problem the form factor for me on the Galaxy device was just annoying. For me the V3 is almost perfect. I am surprised you have that issue with the OP Open thought. It's a good phone!
Welp. Good luck getting this at a reasonable price if you live in the US and certain areas in the UK. If you're willing to finance it, make sure contract has either bring own lube or it would be supplied.
@@marcelontech Honestly, it's out of stock for too long. There's only one online store which sells it with a contract in the Netherlands. So you pay off the phone by month in your contract. I can't wait for 6 weeks. So ordered the Fold 6 instead. I tried it, and it's fine for me, even the smaller screen. I am used to Samsung and like the software and updates. I'm sure there's another tech nerd loke me who wants to swap phones after a while whenever I want to have the Magic V3 :). Eventually, I will get my hands on one :P
I am returning the device for 2 main reasons, 1.- As you can see from second 5 to the 12 in the video, on sunny days outdoors you can't see nothing on the screen... Noting at all!!! 2.- Pictures have really bad process from the IA or from the OS or i don't know but the faces look really bad in the picture... I am sad because I really like the device but those bad pictures and bright... Are really to bad
Shame you found that to be the case. 8 have had very little problems with outdoor visibility. The front screen can go over 4000 nits. I have found the AI good to
Bad outdoor screen visibility?!? This thing can go up to around 4000 nits lol... The cameras are also brilliant. I especially enjoy the Harcour effect.
Mate, it can go at 5000 nits but if the software outdoor doesn't allow you... What can you do? Haha ad the pictures are awful... I'm really sorry... I love the device but as I said, it have those issues... (Again I say it in my personal opinion)
@@Yaripilot It's all good. Of course you can have your own opinion. However, I still fail to understand what software has to do with peak screen brightness, which is entirely hardware based. The Magic V3 has one of the brightest if not THE brightest front screen on the market. Been using it for over a month now and I've never had a phone perform so well under direct sunlight. The main camera quality is also particularly impressive. Second best only to the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro which is a whole 2mm thicker. I guess maybe you just received a faulty unit...
Gaming hasn't been a problem for me. In regards to camera it does suffer in low light but sometimes also nails it. In good light video and stills are A.
@@marcelontech compare with Vivo X fold 3 pro in terms of of photo / video & gaming , the Vivo is on the upper hand in performance and also the crease line on the screen too !
I've had mine a week. My daughter called on WhatsApp video call. She said what she saw was the worst video of me...ever!! We had to go to my wife's old iPhone. In lower light, and our main roon lights were on, the selfie camera could not cope. A real shame. I thought I could use the main camera instead, but you can't on WhatsApp video calls, it defaults to the selfie camera. Everything else is fine, but I am disappointed.

Wow you have all the foldables bar the Google fold 9 pro. So your fav is the V3?

That's an interesting observation and you are right. Have you tried the built portrait filter from Harcourt. I find them to be very good.
@@marcelontech no, I have magic 5 pro, but that goes for all honors unfortunately. Im waiting a good offer to get v3

Agreed. It's a very very good device, even the battery life. I think this is also because the front screen is soooo usable.
My battery is not great and always feel hot when use outer screen but i do use dual sim

That's very kind summarization of my video
You don't get the case or charger in the UK
Oh that's a shame.
How's the keyboard on the small display? I struggle to write WAY too much on the one plus open
Not an issue at all! It's like using a full size slab phone
That the problem the form factor for me on the Galaxy device was just annoying. For me the V3 is almost perfect. I am surprised you have that issue with the OP Open thought. It's a good phone!
The pen does comes with a nice case in the box
It does right, I really like the carry case.
6.4 inch, not 6.7!
Well done. You passed the test.
We all add a few cm
6.43 inch to be more precise 😂
Great video. I'm tempted but bot convinced the software is up to par with samsungs
Also it's difficult to get insurance on these
You are not wrong. The Samsung software is superior however you would be hard pressed to not love this device. It's truly impressive.
Man I was thinking about this but then Samsung offered a tablet a Chromebook a free s-pen case and 2 years samsung care for £60 plus £470 for my s23U.
Wow that's a very good deal
