The future of mobile gaming folds – and HONOR is at the forefront
We're big fans of folding phones, but sometimes the models we see in the showrooms have had to cut corners or make compromises, sacrificing portability, practicality or power. That's why we're so excited about the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR. No corners have been cut and no compromises have been made. It feels like the future, because it is: it's the first ever folding phone to deliver silky-smooth 120fps gaming.
What makes the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR so special is that it combines cutting-edge technology with premium materials, innovative software and beautiful design. It's the supercar of smartphones, a phone that's brilliant as well as beautiful and that delivers spectacular performance.
The gaming giant that fits in your pocket
Don't let that super-slim folding case fool you: it may look like a work of art but this is a seriously powerful phone that's great for gaming. Working with Gameloft, HONOR has optimised the gaming experience on the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR to deliver gaming performance that's never been seen on a foldable phone. That means 120fps performance in Asphalt 9: Legends, taking full advantage of that large unfolded display to deliver a truly exceptional gaming experience. That's because HONOR didn't just make the game run bigger. It runs better too, with enhanced large-screen adaptation effects that deliver high resolution viewing and unprecedented clarity. It's a visually immersive experience unlike anything you've played before.
Introducing the millimetre era
At just 9.9mm when fully folded, the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR is the thinnest inward folding smartphone in the world – and it's actually lighter than many traditional soapbar-shaped phones even though it has twice the display size. It heralds what HONOR is calling the "millimetre era" for foldables, when incredible design produces folding phones that are sleek, stylish and perfectly pocketable.
The impossible made possible
The sci-fi writer Arthur C Clark famously said that any sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from magic, and the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR makes that really clear. That's because HONOR has made the previously impossible possible – and practical, and beautiful. With its folded form resembling the very best looking slate-shaped phones and its unfolding displays to deliver big-screen beauty, the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR makes the exceptional your new everyday.
Premium materials and exceptional design
To make the impossible possible, HONOR developed its own industry-leading, aerospace-grade, super-light titanium alloy hinge. Titanium is both incredibly light and incredibly strong, and by using it in conjunction with HONOR's proprietary steel it delivers the perfect balance of slimness, stamina and titanium toughness. The Magic V2 RSR has the industry's first anti-scratch Nanocrystal Shield, delivering a tenfold improvement in scratch resistance and a hardness rating of over seven on the Mohs scale, and yet it weighs just 234g.
Timeless design meets future-facing innovation
What makes the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR so desirable is the way it mixes timeless design with cutting-edge technology and materials. The device features a high density surface that adds an opulent finishing touch to its highly haptic touch and feel, and its timeless Agate Grey colourway is an unmistakeable tribute to Porsche's luxury cars. In fact, the same sleek and metallic grey has been featured in the Porsche 911, Boxster, Cayman, Macan and the Porsche Panamera and the flyline of the phone's rear evokes the hood of the iconic Porsche 911.
Substance to match the style
Of course, a phone's ultimate job isn't just to look good. It's to perform – and the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR is designed to do just that. Its powerful processor, Flyline Camera Module and three-lens camera assembly with HONOR Image Engine deliver the specifications you need to excel every day.
With its cutting-edge technology, innovative design and premium materials the PORSCHE DESIGN HONOR Magic V2 RSR raises the bar for foldable technology. Its sleek and ultra-thin design defies conventional boundaries, showcasing HONOR's commitment to making the impossible not just possible, but practical and beautiful too.
