I believe EU regions won't have charger.. Asian countries like SG MY have ..

flossycarter will be triggered again if no charger for review

Those who ordered from Shopee's Honor Official Store on July 16-18, can share your delivery date?

I ordered mine on 17th but still on Aug 6-7 delivery date

Nice .. collection 23rd July??

Actually I forgot to ask, I keep thinking in my mind it's 23 July onwards. Hopefully I get their call by next week.

Moving on from thinness and specs, bought some accessories from taobao today, should be arriving by next week. Outer tempered glass screen protector, and a camera lens protector (feel like most listings are from the same brand/factory just different shops).

I think i will stick to the default case provided as it looks nice and thin. I think brands like Spigen, Pitaka and Elago don't make cases for brands like Honor right? Anyone who used the Magic V3 or other Honor phones have any recommendations of good case makers for Honor? Or do most people just stick to taobao OEM cases?

I bought the tpu case here

Although the battery of both the V5 and Fold 7 cannot last an entire day especially in the unfolded position reviews below show their battery performance

For Honor V5 it's about 9.5hrs

For Fold 7 it's about 6 hrs

I see.. how's the battery life??

overnight drain 1% only. prolly due to china strict apps/battery management.

I mean like the screen on time etc haha... I don't really care about drain overnight if got fast charging...

only owned the phone 2 days just to test the camera only. the rest i never really stress test. mainly test the notifications and found it disappointing that a few apps had missed notifications..

What apps missed notifications?

How about apps open in small screen and when unfolded sometimes not showing on large screen? You have this issue? Have to test the app a couple of times and see.

Yours is local or china set?

Actually the Sg / My set advertise as 16gb ram + 512gb ROM..the 16gb ram is like boosted 12gb ram +4gb rom..not really actual 16gb dedicated ram.

I think V5 camera is better and for work purpose got magic desktop mode (similar to Samsung Dex). sadly V5 screen is tadly smaller.

I just checked with Honor store on Shopee and they replied that they will start shipping out from July 23......

"Thank you for your interest in HONOR Magic V5. You can receive your pre-order from 23 July onwards. Thank you!"
