Honor Magic V3

[eyz]

I'll be surprised (and disappointed) if the so called global release is still based on China ROM with the option to turn on GMS.

Can current users of V2 bought in SG (supposedly on global rom) help to verify the above?

global v2 has google service right out of the box.

You can ignore his last sentence of comment. It is just fake news. Since the return of Honor in global market 2023, all come with GMS, dunno he is staying in what era!?!??

anyways, Xiaomi announcing MixFold4 tomorrow.. will see how good it is as apparently the camera system is better, and is even thinner but may not be lighter?

never used Xiaomi before but have used Huawei (before they were crippled without GMS) so I'm comfortable with Honor since they're siblings. dun really like the Xiaomi brand as they sell all sorts of stuff and sounds less of a phone maker and more like a supermarket (e.g. NTUC). but will wait out and see.

still no news of when v3 will go global... it's a waiting game...

so far none of XM fold sold globally, so don't have any hope either. But heard rumor saying this round maybe will. Let us see. I understand it is easy to install GMS for XM CN set. But still has the same limitation as Honor CN set too.

Nope.... Mix Fold 4 is slightly thicker than V3@9.47mm.... So V3 won the title this year again...

Mix Fold 4 is 9.47mm thin and weigh 226g.
V3 is 9.2mm or 9.3mm and weigh 226g or 230g

Extract the below from this link https://www.honor.com/global/news/honor-magic-v3-series-launch/

"The HONOR Magic V3 Series will also soon be brought to the international markets later this year."

2 to 3 mths after china launch is a realistic launch date for global.

Mix Flip already been certified by IMDA, with no sign of Mix Fold 4 in the database hence very likely to be China exclusive only.

okay but I'm not interested to use China rom again (currently using Oppo Find x6 pro which is... China rom).

don't like the default china ads, apps which can't be removed/uninstalled. hope for a clean global rom honor v3!

Like i say 2 to 3 months after China launch is a realistic target.
If it’s 2 to 3 months away, surely u will not see it certified by IMDA now.

Yes. Based on experience of Magic 5 or 6 series were about 2 - 3 mth. Except Magic V2 is exceptional 6mth.

At the moment, it seems that the devices will only be available in China at launch. However, there are speculations that the Mix Flip will eventually reach international markets.

Samsung also selling lots of stuffs. eg. Refrigerator, washing machine, audio, video, vehicles. I assume you don't like samsung also.

I feel china rom is the way to go. There is a GMS option in setting in honor recent new set. It's just u lose out on android auto. Does it matter if u don't drive
