The Honor Magic V Flip 2 promises to be one of the most tantalizing new foldables of 2025. While the brand’s premium design had previously been hinted at, today’s announcement is far more compelling in what might make the device stand out: a powerful 200MP camera system that takes head on aim at the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Honor Magic V Flip 2 features 200MP flagship camera
The dual rear camera of the Honor Magic V Flip 2 was teased recently. The highlight is the 200MP Main camera with 50MP ultra-wide lens. This aligns the Honor Magic V Flip 2 with most of the biggest specs of Samsung’s highest-end foldables, including the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which now also includes a 200MP sensor. However, if the sensor and software optimization is up to the mark, Magic V Flip 2 should be able to outshine the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in photos.

Well, its hardware is something to talk about, and its design is not without its own flair. In a fashion statement, Honor has teamed up with luxury designer Jimmy Choo to co-design a Blue version of the phone. Honor has made good use of this seemingly long-forgotten phone segment as a lifestyle accessory — one that can serve high-end performance too.
