Reviews for the Honor V Purse

80% HONOR V Purse Review: Slim, sleek & different
Source: Android Headlines English
The HONOR V Purse is… well, it’s an interesting phone, first and foremost. This device started off as a concept phone, as HONOR was unsure whether to launch it or not. It decided to push it to the market, but only in its homeland, China. The company is trying to see what works, probably, and how will the consumers react to something like this. If we push the accessory with a chain to the side, this is a nice outwards-folding device. Sure, it doesn’t exactly have flagship specs, but it will sure grab people’s attention. On top of that, it’s one of the most compact foldables on the market, at least as far as flip phones are concerned. It’s difficult to explain how thin this phone feels in the hand even when folded. We have a different experience here that may appeal to some of you. It’s always interesting to see different products, especially when they’re actually good, so we’re definitely glad HONOR decided to push the HONOR V Purse to the market.

Honor V Purse Review: A Pocket-Sized with a Fashionable Twist
Source: Igeekphone English
According to industry surveys, 44.6% of consumers believe that the reason why foldable screen mobile phones have not become popular is “poor experience”. The oversized screen, thick and heavy, will make it difficult for some female users to use the phone. Among them, The inconvenience of carrying is also one of the important reasons. In order to change the market structure, Honor has promoted the development of folding products with the concept of “light, thin, and large foldable”. Its birth reflects Honor’s in-depth understanding and unique insights into the female user group who pursue fashion and taste and also brings a new choice to trendy users who pursue tasteful dressing. I believe that the launch of Honor V Purse will lead the trend of technology and fashion, making digital products such as mobile phones gradually become the new darling of the fashion industry.

Honor V Purse Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
Honor V Purse is a completely new concept in the smartphone market and it could be a game-changing product for the company. However, if we strictly look at the technical aspect, the hardware and camera aspects of this phone are underwhelming as compared to other devices present in the same price range. Plus, it’s only available in China. Thus, it would be difficult to purchase this device for other markets. Apart from this, the display only supports a 90Hz refresh rate which felt quite disappointing. On top of that, there’s no alternative option if you are looking for a similar concept device. Instead, you can check out other foldable phones like the Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 if you are searching for better specs and features but you have to pay more. The alternative beats Honor V Purse in terms of overall user experience. Anyway, the final decision is up to you so choose a device based on your requirements and needs.

Honor V Purse: Fashion-focused concept phone unveiled at IFA 2023
Source: Expert Reviews English
Not exactly my cup of tea but you get the idea. You’ll also be able to have different screens on each side of the phone. Detailed specifications are, alas, somewhat thin on the ground, beyond a promise that the phone will be 9.9mm thin; Honor has no plan to bring this to market at all. All of which begs the question as to why bother announcing it at all. I suspect it’s a bit of a toe in the water to see what the reaction to it is, to see how it’s received amongst smartphone fans. Maybe, just maybe, at a technology trade show at some point in the future, we’ll actually see one of these launched that’s available to buy.

The Foldable Phone That's A...Purse? | Honor V Purse | TSW167
Source: Tech Spurt English
This week we check out the Honor V Purse concept phone and a bunch of other bits from IFA 2023, the tech expo in Berlin. The Honor V Purse is a particularly bonkers foldable smartphone with a similar design to the Huawei Mate XS, with a large bendy screen that stretches around the outside. Here’s a closer look, but don’t save up your cash for one. This isn’t coming to UK stores - but hopefully it’ll actually launch as a fully-fledged phone in one form or another soon. We also have a squint at the TCL 40 NxtPaper phone, and a Tecno rollable handset called the Phantom Ultimate - again, just a concept sadly! Let us know what you think of the Honor V Purse and the other bits below, and check out my other videos from IFA 2023 including a look at the Lenovo Legion Go and JBL’s latest PartyBox Ultimate speaker.

Comment

Qualcomm Adreno 642L: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 40% faster than the Adreno 620.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


SD 778G 5G: Fast mid-range ARM SoC with 8 CPU Kryo 670 cores (four fast ARM Cortex-A78 core at up to 2.4 GHz and four small ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz) and an integrated X53 5G modem (up to 3300 Mbps download). The SoC is manufactured in the modern 6 nm process at TSMC.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


7.71":

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.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


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).


80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
