Summary
Malaysia and Singapore are the first global markets to sell Honor’s Magic V6 at RM7,699, with the UK and Europe due later this month after its China debut.
6,660mAh battery capacity is the phone’s standout upgrade, delivering roughly two-day battery life and topping the 5,820mAh pack in the previous Magic V5.
4mm thickness when open and an IP69 rating give the V6 foldable-first claims, but the gains are marginal in daily use and the crease still trails Oppo’s less visible design.
Seven years of OS and security updates strengthen the package, yet MagicOS remains a key weakness alongside foldable trade-offs in cameras, durability and repair support outside China.
Honor’s launch lands in a maturing foldable market where hardware advances are increasingly incremental ahead of expected new entries from Samsung and Apple.
