Honor Magic V2 Global Edition - Unboxing Setup & First impression

[@Cool_Saf]

Thanks mate. It can split horizontally so no issues...

[@jjz3052]

I'm quite sure that the crease is not visible due to the fact that maybe the telephone hasn't been folded for once untill you unboxed it for the first time. Anyways, I love the model and I'm really thinking about buying it, but I'm hesitating between this one and the S24 Ultra precisely, as you showed it in the video. I'll be so thankful if you could jus guve me your advice, which one would you keep if it was your case? Given the fact that I'm blown away with the S24 performance, but I love Honor's phone style and it's been a long time that I'm thinking to swipe on a foldable one, in any case this will be the one. Thank you so much in advance ❤

[@Cool_Saf]

Hi. TBH both are great phones in their own respect. It depends on what you want. If you are looking for Speed - Both are fast. If you want good battery life both have good battery life. Yes, S24U feels heavier than the V2. However, if u want the best phone for camera then S24U is for u no doubt as the zoom is amazing in S24U. But for regular point and shoot both are good. For me the stand out feature is when im sitting down and want to read articles or consume social media or videos the big screen from V2 is amazing.

global version is working on usa carriers like tmo and vzw

[@Cool_Saf]

Yes it should work without any issues

[@Rogaline]

looking forward to the comparison with the one plus open

[@Cool_Saf]

Absolutely my friend...I'm bringing it soon

[@johnb3273]

I had the OnePlus and sold it. It was good but the huge camera circle mountain on the back gets in the way of holding the phone. Have had the Magic V2 for 2 weeks and it's much better IMHO. Also have the xiaomi mix fold 3 which I think is the best but due to no global rom, it falls behind the others. W

[@Cool_Saf]

@@johnb3273 you are right the OnePlus open has a big camera bump at the back a lot of phones especially the candy bar ones from china are having kind of similar camera design. And yes Xiaomi is still one of my favourites...

[@jonathanberg3729]

Great video. I like the comparisons!

[@Cool_Saf]

Thanks mate...

[@patrickdebray7550]

I enjoyed your video So far i have ptoblem wth the sound of the alarm sound it is just so low and poor once set up.Is there a way to have a louder sound when the time has been set and chosen.Thanks

[@Cool_Saf]

@@patrickdebray7550 Hi. I understand sometimes the default sounds are not that good. If I am in that situation I normally go to an app called Zedge. They have ringtones, sounds, wallpaper etc. There you will find good sounds which u can use as alarm sounds. Hope that helps.

[@leoppdhz1066]

Great video. I want to ask how is the battery life compare to the xiaomi mix fold 3? And how is the cover screen compare to the xiaomi mix fold 3? And how well does it multitask compare to the xiaomi mix fold 3?

[@Cool_Saf]

Hi. Thanks. The battery life is more or less same. Same is the multi tasking and front screen not much difference. However the camera is slighly better on Xiaomi mix fold 3 than Honor. The biggest difference is in the weight and slimness on Honor. Hope that helps

[@leoppdhz1066]

@@Cool_Saf Thanks for the reply. Also im planning to mostly use the cover display and only use the inside screen to watch or multitasking, so is the bigger xiaomi cover screen gives better experience?

[@Cool_Saf]

@@leoppdhz1066 if u already have the Xiaomi mix fold 3...I would say stick with it till we know what mix fold 4 has to offer...

[@leoppdhz1066]

@@Cool_Saf Thanks for the reply. No i dont have any foldable phone 😅. So im asking wich one is better at battery, camera, coverscreen and multitasking. Because i want to buy but i cant decide.

[@Cool_Saf]

@@leoppdhz1066 tbh...imo at the moment for me OnePlus open is the best foldable phone. But if the choice is between Xiaomi mix fold 3 and Honor magic V2...I would pick honor magic V2.

[@maramao6202]

Thank you for the review. I am not sure wethere to get this or oppo find n3. What is your suggestion?

[@Cool_Saf]

If you are referring to OnePlus open which is a global edition then yes go for it as the software implementation and experience is better. However if you are referring to oppo find n3 Chinese ROM then I would recommend honor magic V2 global one

[@maramao6202]

@@Cool_Saf Thanks a lot for the answer!! I actually live in Hong Kong, so I can find both the Oppo and the honor "hk version", meaning international. I was not able to find oneplus. SO also in this case you would still recommend Magic v2?

[@Cool_Saf]

@@maramao6202 hi. Yes Hong Kong version is still international version. And I would recommend oppo as the user experience is better than magic V2. If u want a very slim phone then magic V2. However, if u want a better camera with zoom and better software experience then oppo.

Hey Bud, do you still have mix fold 3. If yes could you please send me side by side top shot with mix fold 3 and magic 2. I find mix fold 3 cover screen no satisfying as not so wide so want to get v2 but not sure if there is much of difference. Thank you

[@Cool_Saf]

Hi Mate. I dont have the mix fold 3 with me. However i have the Magic V2 and Xiaomi 14 Ultra and keep them side by side visually they look identical when measuring the screen side by side x14 ultra is 7.4cms vs 7.1cms on magic v2. Hope this helps

Hi sir this phone is good compared to Samsung? Please let me know

[@Cool_Saf]

Hello Sir. Yes, its definitely better than Samsung in design. However in Software Samsung in my opinion is better.

[@inikdom90]

Great Video. Is it actually true, that KZbin wont split horizontially?

[@ThomasMueller90]

No it is not true. Just watched this Video on my V2 horizontally 😁

[@inikdom90]

Thanks! You think the 1600 Euro were worth for the phone? I guess according to your name you are german as well

[@ThomasMueller90]

@@inikdom90 Bis jetzt gefällt es mir sehr gut. Das Design ist geisteskrank. Kommt wenn du es real siehst nochmal viel geiler als auf Videos. Die Lederversion sieht real auch viel viel geiler aus als auf Videos. Was mich bissl stört ist der Sound. Klingt mein 14 Pro Max schon bissl besser. Ist aber jetzt kein Weltuntergang. Kamera ist halt auf Foldniveau. Wie auch bei der Konkurrenz. Normale Smartphones performen da schon besser. Soll natürlich jetzt nicht heißen, dass die Bilder mies sind aber im direkten Vergleich sieht man schon kleine Unterschiede. Software/Performance bis jetzt Tip Top. Hatte auch schon Samsung Folds. Vermisse jetzt Softwaretechnisch nichts. Und Akku ist auch krank. Viel viel besser als bei anderen Folds. Wenn du Fragen hast, gerne fragen :)

[@inikdom90]

@@ThomasMueller90 hey, danke für deine ausführliche antwort. ich bin wirklich kurz davor mir das v2 ebenfalls zu bestellen. mich ärgert nur etwas die preispolitik von honor in deutschland. Die franzosen haben das gerät für 1200 mit deals bekommen und bei uns liegt es halt bei 1600. Leisten kann ich es mir, es fühlt sich aber im verhältnis überteuert an - zudem das v2 auch seit über 6 monaten auf dem markt ist und einen snapdragon 8 gen 2 verbaut hat (ja ich weiß, performance ist hier auch absolut top). Ein reviewer hatte sich beschwert, dass bei bspw. Whatsapp notifications sich ein floating window öffnet, wenn man auf die nachricht klickt, anstatt die app. Ist dir ähnliches aufgefallen?

[@AbdulAminGani]

I can't split it Horizontally only Vertically - so it is true.

[@rikonlondon5589]

Great vid as ever!

[@Cool_Saf]

Thanks a lot for your kind comments. really appreciate it...Thanks again...

[@patrizio9778]

The back PU is resistance to scratches or its soft?

[@Cool_Saf]

Yes, It is prone to scratch so need to handle it carefully or you have to use the case which comes with the phone unfortunately

[@tangsta35]

kind of crazy that this phone is not software optimized... Look @ 9:03

[@Cool_Saf]

The apps most of them are optimised. However, Yes not all apps have been optimised. Its still annoys me for those which are not optimised you need to go to settings and choose whether u want it on full screen, which again is stretched out version which is still annoying sometimes.

[@byronwhite321]

Does it come with screen protector installed?
