The HONOR Magic V Flip launch is right around the corner. The phone will become official tomorrow, June 13. As we’re waiting for that to happen, a Geekbench listing has confirmed some HONOR Magic V Flip details.
The HONOR Magic V Flip details get confirmed thanks to a benchmark
The listing surfaced and thus showed us the phone’s benchmarking results, in addition to confirming its processor, RAM, and Android version. Let’s take it one step at a time, though, let’s talk benchmarks.
HONOR’s first flip phone reached a single-core score of 1,732 points. It managed to reach 4,431 points in the multi-core test. The SM8475 chipset fuels the device, that’s the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, in case you were wondering.
HONOR opted to go for a slightly older flagship processor here. That chip was announced in 2022, and it was a really powerful processor when it arrived. It still performs great in phones that it fuels, though. It sure is an interesting choice. Many people expected at least the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, though.
The device will include an older flagship chip, and 12GB of RAM
The phone will include 12GB of RAM, while Android 14 will come pre-installed on it. HONOR’s MagicOS 8.0 will be included on top of Google’s operating system, though, of course.
Considering that the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 will fuel the HONOR Magic V Flip, we’re expecting a very appealing price tag. HONOR went for this processor for a reason, and its price tag is probably one of the main reasons for it.
The HONOR Magic V Flip design was also revealed recently. The phone will have a large cover display, as is the custom these days when it comes to flip phones. It remains to be seen if the HONOR Magic V Flip will launch outside of China, though. Tomorrow’s launch event is for China.
