Honor is preparing to unveil the Magic V6 at Mobile World Congress on 2026-03-01, and the foldable phone appears poised to set a new battery capacity record. The standard model packs a 6,850 mAh battery, while a satellite-enabled variant pushes that to 7,150 mAh, making it the largest battery ever fitted to a foldable phone. Both configurations support 120W wired and wireless charging. The previous Magic V5 featured a 5,820 mAh battery, so this represents a substantial increase in capacity.
The device is expected to feature full waterproofing, dust resistance, and corrosion resistance, along with support for Beidou satellite communication on certain models. The foldable will ship with MagicOS 10 based on Android 16, making it one of the first foldables to launch with Android 16 out of the box.
On the imaging front, the Magic V6 is rumored to sport a triple rear camera system with a 200-megapixel primary sensor, an ultra-wide lens, and a periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. The device maintains the series' focus on slim and lightweight design while incorporating symmetrical bezels on its flat display.
While Honor will showcase the Magic V6 at MWC next week, widespread availability may take time. Previous Magic V series phones have typically launched in China first before arriving in Europe several months later, often around July. The China launch is expected to occur on 2026-03-01, with the European release potentially delayed until mid-2026.
