The world’s thinnest foldable phone just came to Europe at IFA 2024
In mid-July, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 impressed me with its size and weight. It's thinner than previous models and much more comfortable to hold. But Samsung's brand-new phone is still 12.1mm thick when folded. That's still thicker than last year's Honor Magic V2, which has a 9.9mm profile when closed. That is, Samsung couldn't beat one of its biggest rivals in the foldable phone niche.
About a week after Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 6, the Chinese vendor announced the Honor Magic V3, a foldable phone that's even thinner than its predecessor. It measures just 9.2mm when closed, which is incredible.
Honor only launched the Magic V3 in China back then, without announcing plans for an international rollout. However, buyers won't have to wait until early next year to get their hands on the world's thinnest foldable phone. The Magic V2 launched in Europe in mid-January, suggesting the V3 could follow.
Honor on Thursday hosted a launch event in Berlin, Germany, at IFA 2024, bringing the Magic V3 phone to Europe.
