As HONOR prepares for its next foldable releases, rumors are already circulating. According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the next Magic V4 (or maybe the Magic V5, if HONOR chooses to omit the number four because of its unfortunate reputation in Chinese culture) and the Magic V Flip 2 are anticipated to offer some significant battery advancements. If accurate, these enhancements may provide HONOR a substantial advantage in the cutthroat foldable market.

A Significant Improvement for the Honor Magic V4
The most interesting rumor circulating is that HONOR is testing a Magic V4 (or V5) battery with a capacity of 6,000mAh. Compared to the Magic V3's already remarkable 5,150mAh battery, that is a significant improvement.
Although there are currently little details available, there are rumors that the Magic V Flip 2 will also have a bigger battery than its predecessor. An impressive 4,800mAh battery powers the current Magic V Flip, which is rather good for a little foldable. The Magic V Flip 2 may have a significant advantage in a market where battery life is frequently a key problem if Honor is able to fit in an even larger battery.
Is it possible for HONOR to preserve power and thinness?
The Magic V3's streamlined, slender design is among its most striking features; in fact, it's currently the thinnest book-style foldable available. It is shockingly small and light, like a typical smartphone.
However, HONOR has some competition from OPPO's Find N5, which is expected to arrive next month and aims to be even slimmer.
Nonetheless, HONOR may have found the ideal balance for customers seeking both portability and long-lasting performance if it can increase battery capacity without making its devices bigger.
Regarding the anticipated release date of these gadgets, the Magic V4 is anticipated to go on sale in Q3 2025, potentially in July, which would coincide with the Magic V3's 2024 release date. In September, HONOR may hold a worldwide launch for international markets at IFA 2025.
In the meantime, competition in the foldable sector is just increasing.
To keep ahead of the competition, HONOR will need to provide more than minor enhancements, since companies like OPPO are vying for the smallest designs while others are emphasizing cutting-edge capabilities.

Battery life is still a serious issue for many consumers, and the foldable market is still developing. HONOR may establish itself as a market leader if it can provide the anticipated battery increases without sacrificing design. The Find N5 from OPPO may be the smallest foldable, but rumors about HONOR's next improvements indicate that the company is concentrating on something much more crucial: lifespan and usage.
