Honor Magic V6 Price Deters Buyers Despite €1,700 Offer, Poll Splits 25% to 25%

1 articles · Updated · GSMArena.com · Jul 12

Summary

  • 25.5% of poll respondents said they would wait for a discount on the Honor Magic V6, narrowly topping the 25.3% willing to buy at its current promotional price.
  • €1,700 in Europe and £1,500 in the UK still appear too steep for many buyers, even with a free Honor Pad 10 and a 24-month screen protection plan bundled in.
  • August could make the phone harder to justify: the EU price is set to rise to €2,300, while the UK deal depends on a £500 voucher that may not last.
  • 22% said they are not buying any foldable at all, while 14.8% are considering rivals such as the Oppo Find N6, vivo X Fold6 and Motorola Razr Fold.
  • Availability is also a drag, with the Magic V6 still missing from some Honor markets and Europe limited to the 512GB model instead of the 1TB version.
