Reviews for the Honor Magic Vs2

Honor Magic Vs2 Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The Honor Magic Vs2 is Honor’s latest foldable smartphone. As you have seen by now, the Honor Magic Vs2 is both an upgrade and a downgrade compared to the previous Honor Magic V2. It has a better build quality that is not only lighter but also more durable, which is a clear upgrade. But there are downgrades as well, specifically in the chipset and camera department. The Honor Magic Vs2 is a league of its own and those downgrades are not downgrades and are justified for the price it asks for. Its only competition is with its previous models. There are no clear alternatives for this foldable smartphone unless you don’t mind paying more. In that case, the Samsung Galaxy Z fold 5 smartphone is an excellent alternative to choose from, but it also costs a little more. If pricing is not a concern, you may as well go with the Honor Magic V2. Anyway, the final decision is up to you, so choose accordingly.

Qualcomm Adreno 730: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 30% faster than the Adreno 660 in the Snapdragon 888 SoC. For Android it should be one of the fastest graphics cards in late 2021.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

SD 8+ Gen 1: High-end SoC for smartphones that was introduced in late 2021 and manufactured in 4 nm at TSMC. Integrates one “Prime Core” based on a ARM Cortex-X2 architecture clocked at up to 3.2 GHz. Three more performance cores are based on the A710 but clock up to 2.5 GHz. Furthermore, four energy saving cores are integrated that are based on the ARM Cortex-A510 architecture and clock at up to 1.8 GHz. In addition to the processor cores, the SoC integrates a WiFi 6e modem, a Hexagon DSP (for AI acceleration) and a Spectra ISP. The integrated memory controller supports fast LPDDR5 memory with up to 3,200 MHz. 5G is now included in the chip with the Snapdragon X65 modem. Compared to the non plus version, the 8+ Gen 1 offers a 200 MHz higher clocked Prime Core and a 10% higher clocked GPU. Furthermore, it is now produced at TSMC and not Samsung.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


7.92":

This display format is in the mid-range for smartphones. It offers a compromise between good visibility, details and resolution on the screen, and you can still fit it into trouser pockets.

Honor:

In 2014 Huawei created the sub brand Honor and offers certain smartphone series under this name. Occasionally the products are also called Huawei Honor.

The market share of Honor products is manageable, but there are several reviews on Honor smartphones with average ratings (as of 2016).
