Honor rolls out its Magic V6 foldable in Malaysia, setting a new standard for longevity. The device launches for RM 7,699—about $1,891—before June 11, when pre‑orders close. Consumers also receive exclusive gifts, underscoring the brand’s push to cement a loyal regional base.

In a rare commitment, Honor pledges seven years of Android OS and security updates for the entire Magic series in the U.K. and EU. This longevity promise follows the company’s earlier decision to drop the China market and focus on global customers, positioning the V6 as a long‑term investment for tech‑savvy users in the market.

The V6 itself is thinner than its predecessors, measuring 4 mm when unfolded and 8.75 mm folded, rivaling the Galaxy S26 Ultra at 7.9 mm. Its 2800 MPa Super Steel hinge promises 500,000 lifetime folds, while a unique soft‑touch back panel enhances grip. These design choices aim to blend durability with premium feel for both everyday use and rugged.

With the Malaysia launch, Honor taps into a growing demand for foldables that marry longevity and style. The company’s seven‑year update promise, coupled with the V6’s slim profile and robust hinge, signals a shift toward more sustainable device lifecycles. Consumers can now expect a durable, feature‑rich phone that stays current for nearly a long decade.
