Honor Magic V2 - Take 2 - One Year Later! 

I love these take 2 videos!

Great to see a comeback for this phone.

Bought the v2, absolutely perfect for me.

Only thing I hate about the Magic V2 is the software support. It's taking forever to get android 14

Great video !! And indeed.... The V2 has a much better battery life than the X fold 3 pro

They hit the nail on the head more often than not, but when they missed...ouch! 😂

biggest complaint I have other than no android auto is the external glass quality. my screen cover that came with came off after a month or two and I have never seen a phone screen get endless scratches so easily without being dropped or abused . Also is it doesnt work in many areas of usa for calls

contemplating getting this phone on contract with Three. got my doubts over its longevity.. any information on how long honor phones last? hardware and software? warranty? guarantees? etc.. any help would be appreciated

Dear AvgDad, can't wait to watch your upcoming video on how to crack Android Auto on Chinese rom V2. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hey, you mentioned wi-fi calling working. I have the latest OS version with Google play running, I can not find the WLAN calling option anywhere. I can launch it via app "activity launcher" and "enable" it, however even then, no Wi-Fi calling. To add, my mobile phone carrier white listed the phone to use this feature on its network, but again, no luck. Any tricks to having "WLAN calling" show under settings and get it to actually work?

USB C otg 3.1/2 video output can be used with smartglaesse such XREAL AIR which in basic form you all be carry around 100" monitor screen or with their BEAM add on about the size of old ipod v5 your get up to 3 screens which you can pin in few organization layout for travelling work station or simple gaming /private movie watching

What about bands differences for various mobile telecommunications providers?

Great video and it was a great phone but I love my Vivo X Fold 3 Pro more.

Whee is the video of Android auto. My Huawei mate 50 pro has auto Android but onto when connected wired. No BT so would love to see if I can somehow get this sorted.

Cheers for another good video Mike 🔥😎👍 I bought the Chinese ROM V2 when I first discovered your channel back last year. It was a great phone but Gbox and G space definitely made it less enjoyable to use at the time. Would I buy another? Most definitely, but as the V3 can’t be too far away, I did also hear that Honor were going to implement some of the RSR design on their new foldable device. How true this is I don’t know? But if they bought the V3 out with the same camera housing design as the V2 RSR or the Magic 6 RSR then I’d be throwing my money at them. Do you have any plans to review the Magic 6 Ultimate or Magic 6 RSR candy bar phones in the near future?

Love your videos as you know......but....... I think you have missed a massive story here. Magic OS 8..... It is awful. Almost to the point where I want to go back to a z fold 4. I hate it that much now!! Since OS8....battery life is 20% worse. The copy of dynamic island is crap and you can't turn it off and with it on you can't see notifications. Also you can't use a 3rd party launcher anymore as you can't get to the recent apps button/gesture. You also can't use a 3rd party calling app like the Google one as the phone flashes when a call comes in.

Which and what smart watch support honor v2 for nfc payment using watch, I got huawei watch gt3 pro, but cannot link with my bankcard😢

my v2's inner screen now shows a crease , not as deep but still seeable in curtain lighting areas , no sadly only temporary nearly crease free , shame you keep on getting rid of the v2 or you would see and feel the crease , best thing is the battery which sticks on 100% for a long time with the phone in standby mode

what stylus is that,need one for mine v2

Does it do app pairs?

I'm banking on a listing on a fairly new Magic V2 Global ROM for around GBP670. Any thoughts?

Do all banking apps and Google wallet work on the global rom? Also are notifications coming through fine?

did anyone notice that there aren't so many rumors around a Magic v3??

Bought one of these the other week because of your videos, needed a new phone and was interested in trying a foldable one next. I got mine from Honor, they had a £530 discount so £1170. Global version having esim was what pushed me Vs Chinese rom. Also don't care if it's a year old, the hardware is perfectly fine. Just hope it lasts durability wise!

I have a v2 for 3 months now, my only complaint is the call volume sound , for some reason it's a bit low compared to other phones I used. Have any of you had the same complaint? It's sometimes difficult to hear especially if there is noise around me

The honor magic v2 porsche edition rsr is one ot the best designed foldables of all time

watching this on my v2

Still constantly looking for that £700 V2 on eBay...

1 year old... I'm waiting for mine ordered few days ago and it's old already XD

Hey I got my galaxy watch to pair with my vivo x fold 3 pro and it works great. If you want to know how I got it paired I could give you details so you could make a video on it? I think my solution works with all Chinese rom phones as well!

Android auto video? Eta to video? Link?

my stupid ass took my magic v2 to a rafting, of course it died completely, water came out from sim tray etc. so i buried it in like 500g of silica gel. 45 days later, it was ressurected... 0 problem, like nothing ever happened. CRAY!!

Horror took years to get full Android, that's why it's released late in western market

Honor are giving an Honor Pad 8 for just £1 if you buy this (which can be sold). If I add a charger, with a student discount, this comes up to about £1171..would you say this is worth it in June 2024?

Its tizen chip bud but you were close. Tizer was a great juice though 😂

Does is have with the split screen usage a drag & drop function like the Oneplus Open? I just love how easy it is on the Oneplus Open to drag pictures from left to right.

I just bought oneplus open

10:42 what's that ugliest pill hole on the top?

Tell me a Chineese foldable phone that has wireless charging and also global rom?

I love your channel, but honestly the Chinese rom is not a permanent alternative as: - Voice over Wifi is not supported (that's a major problem as there are a lot of areas with bad receptions in Europe and without that you can´t use your phone number in those regions) - Google Location services do not work completely (Location history does not work) - Google Discovery does not work (blocked completely) - Alternative Launcher is not possible to use (blocked completely) - it is impossible to use a customized ROM as there is no way of unlocking the boot loader - it is impossible to switch from Chinese rom to global rom as Honor keeps a closed eco system and is not helpful at all. And unfortunately the global version rom (independent of MagicOS 7 or MagicOS 8 Beta) is not available for direct download. The only way is to update via phone services and that is region bound. Honor could have had a much higher success in the European market if they adopted their software policy, but I do not see this coming.
