Last year's Honor Magic V5 was an incredible upgrade over the V3 in every way, but it was ultimately upstaged by Samsung's excellent Galaxy Z Fold 7. That's why this year, Honor is getting ahead of the game and announcing the Magic V6 at MWC 2026, and while the phone doesn't officially launch until some time in Q2, I've had the privilege of using an early version of the hardware for the past few weeks.
In addition to my own impressions of Honor's latest foldable masterpiece, I also got to interview Hope Cao, the Senior Product Expert for the Magic V6 at Honor. A small group of just me and two other journalists talked Cao's ear off for a solid hour, asking everything we could think of about what makes the Magic V6 special and how the company plans to beat Samsung at its own game this year.
