Honor Magic V2

[macluver]

Anyone who've gotten the set, managed to update and gotten the switch to turn on GMS?

Waiting for this answer too, intent to get the 512g model to replace my mi fold 2.

Magic v2 pricing 2k+ is hard to complete. Z fold 5 is selling 1.65k in shopee.

it will still be CN version, just that you are getting GMS through official channel.

this sounds like a good deal, as CN rom are known to be getting much longer and regular update, as compared to global version.

But right now Honor v2 isn't including Google Mobile Services automatically. Only China folks can sign up for this. I'm not so sure buying a China ROM is a good idea now.

Global will be more expensive. If you can live with with a thicker foldable then get the Sa*****

China market only sells from RMB8999 which is around SGD$1700+. Export set sure more expensive and moreover no warranty.

Not really, based on the pricing sold in CN and MY/SG market, it is quite similar.

Example Honor Magic 5 Pro: RMB5199, RM4299, SGD$1249

Actually the pen like no use, external, have to charge using the craddle, have to bring out separately, very fast low batt, very mafan.
Ended up not using the pen as often as I would like.

Prefer the SGF5's rendition, revamped small pen hidden within the casing, BUT F5 still thick, remote control looking, heavy. Wasted.
