Honor Magic V3 tipped to take the fight to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 globally with three launch colours
Arsène Lupin has shed more light on the state of Honor's global release plans for the Magic V3. To recap, Honor has only released the Magic V3 in China so far. For reference, the Magic V3 retails for CNY 8,999 (~$1,258), which is just as much as the Magic V2 (curr. $1,325 on Amazon) started at when it launched a year earlier.
Officially, Honor has not commented on global availability for its latest foldable yet. However, recent leaks suggest that the Magic V3 may make its international debut early next month in Berlin during IFA 2024. Please note that a showcase during IFA does not mean the Magic V3 will be orderable outside China next month, though.
Also, Honor tends to offer its devices in fewer SKUs globally than in China. For example, the Magic V2 is available across Europe in significantly fewer colour and memory options than in China. According to Arsène Lupin, that will not necessarily be the case with the Magic V3. Supposedly, Honor plans to sell the Magic V3 globally in Velvet Black, Tundra Green and 'Silk Road Dun' colours, evidence of which we have embedded below.
Unfortunately, this would see failing to bring across the device's additional 'Qilian Snow' colour. Likewise, it remains to be seen whether Honor will sell the Magic V3 with its full complement of memory configurations too. Please see our Magic V3 launch article for more hardware details on Honor's latest Galaxy Z Fold rival.
