Honor Magic V5 surfaces in first official look
Honor is gearing up to launch its next flagship foldable phone with the Magic V5 and the teaser campaign is now in full swing ahead of the big launch set to take place on July 2 in Shenzhen, China. Honor has now shared our first official look at the device in its folded state. It looks impossibly thin and we can also notice a big camera island that's rumored to house a 200MP periscope telephoto module. According to the new teaser, Honor Magic V5 will launch as the world's thinnest foldable smartphone. This means it will be thinner than the Oppo Find N5, which is the current slimmest folding phone, measuring 8.9 mm in its folded state and 4.2 mm unfolded.

Weekly poll: would you buy the Honor 400? What about the Honor 400 Pro?
Honor's new 400 and 400 Pro phones went on sale on Friday last week – did you buy one? Do you plan to? Let's talk about this new pair of phones equipped with 200MP cameras. The duo features 200MP 1/1.4' sensors with OIS in their main cameras, plus 50MP selfie cameras – both are capable of 4K video recording. There's also a 12MP ultra-wide on each with a 112° lens with autofocus, enabling macro mode. Honor 400 Pro The Honor 400 Pro stands out with a dedicated tele camera – a 50MP 1/2.0' sensor with an OIS-enabled 3x lens. The 200MP main will do well at 2x, but image quality typically drops off at 3x and 4x. That is something that we will explore in our upcoming review of the Pro. By the way, the Pro has a pill-shaped notch as it houses a 2MP depth sensor for face unlock next to the selfie camera. The 400 Pro also has more processing power with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, a larger 6.7' display and more versatile charging options for the battery – 100W wired and 50W wireless. The battery has 5,300mAh capacity for Europe and 6,000mAh for the rest of the world. This model also has a higher water resistance rating, IP68/IP69, for submersion and water jets. Honor 400 The Honor 400 misses out on the tele camera, so it relies on the 200MP for all zooming tasks – again, this is something to explore in its upcoming review. The vanilla model is a bit smaller with its 6.55' display and features a mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset paired with 8GB of RAM (vs. 12GB on the Pro). The battery – 5,300mAh for Europe, 6,000mAh everywhere else – does 66W/80W wired-only charging. Other things to note are no Wi-Fi 7 and a lower IP65/IP66 rating. Key features: Honor 400 • Honor 400 Pro Here is the pricing info for the UK and Europe for the Honor 400 and 400 Pro: Honor 400 Honor 400 Pro 8/256GB 8/512GB 12/512GB UK £400 £450 £700 EU €500 €550 €800 Let's have a brief look at the competition – there isn't much below the flagship segment, if we're looking at phones with 200MP cameras. Really, it's only the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro and Pro+. The Pro+ model has a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, so it's no match even for the vanilla 400, never mind the 400 Pro. But it does have an IP68 rating and 120W charging for its 5,110mAh battery. As for the cameras, both Pro and Pro+ have 200MP mains and 8MP ultra-wides, neither has a telephoto. Note that these two launched with Android 14 and Xiaomi has only promised 3 OS updates. Meanwhile, the Honor 400s come with Android 15 out of the box and will receive 6 OS updates. On the plus side, even the Pro+ is quite cheap at €380 for a 12/512GB model (compared to €550 for an 8/512GB Honor 400). Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G (Global) • Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G • Nothing Phone (3a) Pro The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro also uses the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, but forgoes the 200MP main camera (it has a 50MP 1/1.56' module instead) in favor of a 50MP 3x telephoto. It also has an 8MP ultra-wide and a 50MP selfie camera. The 5,000mAh battery with 50W wired-only charging and IP64 rating are not great, but the €460 price undercuts the Honor 400. The Poco F7 Ultra flaunts Snapdragon 8 Elite power, giving it the upper hand in processing power. However, its cameras are more limited – 50MP main (1/1.55', OIS), 50MP 2x tele and 32MP ultra-wide. The 5,300mAh battery has 120W wired and 50W wireless charging and the phone is rated IP68. You can grab a 12/256GB model for €700. Xiaomi Poco F7 Ultra • Realme GT 7 5G • OnePlus 13T The new Realme GT 7 features the Dimensity 9400e instead. It has a 6.78' LTPO display and a 50MP 2x tele camera in addition to the 50MP main (1/1.56') and 8MP ultra-wide. Note that there is no OIS on any of the cameras. On the plus side, the phone has a massive 7,000mAh battery (yes, even in Europe) with 120W wired-only charging. It's rated IP69 and you can have a 12/256GB unit for €650. It's only available in China and coming soon to India, but the OnePlus 13T/13s has the Snapdragon 8 Elite power packed in a relatively small size with its 6.32' display. Its battery is larger than any Honor 400 variant at 6,260mAh capacity and it has 80W wired-only charging. The camera is a bit odd – 50MP main (1/1.56', OIS) and 50MP ultra-wide, but no telephoto at all and it doesn't have the benefit of a higher resolution main for zooming. That is only some of the competition that the Honor 400 series is up against. Time to vote – would you buy a 400 model? Let's vote on the Honor 400 Pro first. The extra processing power and the better image quality when zooming will certainly be felt when this phone gets in the latter half of its 6-year lifespan. But it does have a €250/£250 premium over the vanilla model and that's looking at the pricier 512GB variant. Now the Honor 400. If you can fit within 256GB storage, the price gap to the Pro opens up to €300/£300. The Pro costs nearly twice as much – is it twice as good? PS. Have a look at your local site – e.g. in the UK, the Honor 400 Pro has a £150 discount coupon (plus free TWS buds and charger), the Honor 400 gets a free storage upgrade on top of a £50 coupon. Do these deals change your outlook on the Honor 400 and 400 Pro? Honor 400 Pro 5G Honor 400 5G

Galaxy S25 Edge: The thinnest flagship takes aim at iPhone 17 Air
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge, finally confirming what had been leaked months earlier — and the timing feels deliberate. Packed inside the 5.8mm, 163-gram chassis is the same Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and 200MP camera found in Samsung's Ultra model. In other words, it's not a 'lite' edition; it's a statement. The big reveal was held in Seoul, South Korea, on Tuesday morning local time — still Monday evening on the East Coast of the United States. While Apple hasn't publicly commented, the Edge debut date feels quite intentional. With the iPhone 17 Air (or Slim) rumored to be Apple's upcoming ultra-thin play, Samsung just got the first word in. Discount Get the new Galaxy S25 Edge from Samsung and save $120 immediately. This 512GB model is unlocked and comes in three colors: titanium icy blue, titanium jet black, and titanium silver. If you trade in an eligible phone, you can save up to $630. Delivery is May 30, Deal If you've followed Samsung's recent strategy, the Edge is the natural endpoint: Strip everything non-essential to chase a singular design vision. Here, that means matching the Ultra's internals but ditching the telephoto lens and reducing the battery capacity to 3,900 mAh. You get a Galaxy flagship that is lighter than anything Samsung has shipped in years. In return, you get a Galaxy flagship that is lighter than anything Samsung has shipped in years. It's also nearly 2mm thinner than the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and more than a full millimeter thinner than the iPhone 15 Pro. We've been here before, though. Phones got thin, they bent (a throwback to the iPhone 6 Plus), and manufacturers overcorrected with bigger batteries, bulkier camera islands, and the naming of 'Pro Max Ultra.' The S25 Edge hints at a design rethink: What if sleek, pocketable, and premium could coexist? Samsung is betting that it can. If the rumors are accurate, Apple will think the same thing. According to earlier leaks, Apple's 2025 iPhone lineup could include a brand-new Air model. This handset would be dramatically thinner, possibly as thin as 5.5mm, and built from titanium or aluminum to cut weight. The Air may not ship with the full triple-lens loadout we've come to expect. Like the Edge, it might settle for fewer sensors, a smaller battery, and an emphasis on lightness. And much like Samsung, Apple's design decisions will pose the same question: How much compromise are users willing to accept in the name of thin? The S25 Edge's biggest gamble isn't its weight or thickness. It's the battery. At 3,900 mAh, it's down nearly 25% from what you'll find in most 2025 flagships. That's the price you pay for a device this slim. Thermal management is another concern. Thin phones have less room for vapor chambers or graphite pads, and any passive cooling is limited by physics. Some users will notice if Samsung is throttling the Snapdragon 8 Elite under sustained load. Apple's Air may face the same scrutiny. The thinnest iPad Pro (5.1mm) already sparked debates about heat and battery performance. Now imagine a similar device in your pocket and how it might hold up after a day of heavy use. Samsung has everything to gain from this category. Unlike Apple, which has been refining a single design language across devices, Samsung can afford to experiment. The Edge isn't replacing the Ultra or the base S25. It's an option; a stylistic choice for users who value comfort over cameras or runtime. By being first, Samsung gets to frame the narrative: thinness is premium again. And if the iPhone 17 Air follows, Samsung can credibly say it set the trend. The S25 Edge feels like more than a hardware announcement in many ways. It's a provocation. If Apple responds with an iPhone 17 Air this fall, we could see thin become the new must-have spec, right alongside megapixels, refresh rates, and AI. But for now, it's Samsung's turn in the spotlight. The company has built the world's thinnest flagship phone. And in doing so, it may have kickstarted the industry's next great design war. iPhone 17 Air: Rumors are thick on the thinnest iPhone ever Samsung's Galaxy S25 phones offer a big performance boost and even more AI Samsung Galaxy Edge first look: How thin is Samsung's ultra-slim phone?
