Forget the Google Pixel Fold, this folding phone suddenly looks more appealing

The Honor Magic V

Google I/O saw the search giant announce its first foldable phone, the Pixel Fold. Pixel devices have a reputation for competitive pricing, but Google seems to have almost forgotten that. At a whopping £1749/$1799 the Pixel Fold is the most expensive foldable on the market. Luckily Honor has something that won’t stretch your budget as much – and you can get it from next week.

The Honor Magic V is the first foldable from the firm to make its way out of China –and judging by the specs, we’re very glad it has. Available from the 19th of May, if you buy it direct from Honor’s website before the 26th of the month, you can pick it up for £1,199. The regular price will be £1,399, making it a full £350 less than the Pixel Fold when that arrives. For a traditional phone that’s a fair whack, but for one of the best folding phones it’s very tempting.
