Honor Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design comes with two chargers and stylus in box

In July 2023, Honor launched the Magic V2, a book-style foldable smartphone that is a successor to the brand's first foldable device, the Honor Magic V, and a direct rival to the Galaxy Z Fold 5. Last month, the company launched a special edition of that device in collaboration with Porsche, the Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design. Honor is expected to launch the phone globally at MWC on 25 February 2024. Ahead of the global unveil, the reviews of the Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design have gone live, which reveal some interesting details about the device. Let's take a look.

According to reviews (via MrMobile), the Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design comes bundled with a stylus, the Honor Magic Pen, an elegant-looking box to store that stylus, two chargers (one for European power outlets and the other for UK power outlets), and a leather case. With that, the Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design becomes the foldable smartphone with the highest number of in-box accessories that is currently on sale.

Honor Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design specifications

The Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design has the same hardware as the Magic V2, which we will discuss in a moment. However, it comes with a new design for the back panel, which has a “Porsche-style flyline” that runs the entire length of the back panel, and a new design for the camera bump, which also has a “flyline” design. According to the company, these two elements are “intricately reminiscent of the hood of a Porsche 911.”

Coming to the specs, the Honor Magic V2 RSR Porsche Design has a 6.43-inch LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 2,376 x 1,060 pixels on the outside and a 7.92-inch LTPO OLED foldable display with a resolution of  2,344 x 2,156 pixels on the inside.

The phone runs on Android 13 with MagicOS 7.2. The phone, however, lacks an IP rating.
