    (Reviews last updated: Mar 2026)

    What customers like about HONOR V Purse (16GB + 512GB)?

    • Unique and fashion-forward design that is very different from other smartphones and grabs attention.
    • Extremely thin and light for a foldable phone, measuring just 8.6mm when folded.
    • Solid build quality and comfortable to hold, with a nearly imperceptible display crease.
    • Very good performance for a non-flagship (mid-range Snapdragon 778G) processor, handling most daily tasks and less demanding games smoothly.
    • The display is bright, offers good color accuracy, and has smooth touch response, despite being 90Hz.
    • Customizable Always-On Displays (AODs) with interactive designs that can be matched to outfits, along with support for interchangeable straps.
    • Allows use of the high-quality main cameras for selfies by using the rear screen as a viewfinder.
    • Comes with the charger included in the box.

    What customers dislike about HONOR V Purse (16GB + 512GB)?

    • The screen is always exposed when folded (outward-folding design), raising durability and scratch concerns.
    • Folding/unfolding mechanism is not as smooth or satisfying as inward-folding phones, requiring a conscious effort to open and close.
    • Mid-range camera performance; images can lack detail in low light, colors are not always accurate, and both main and ultrawide cameras lack Optical Image Stabilization (OIS).
    • Battery life is not as good as some competing book-style foldables.
    • Charging speed (35W) is considered slow compared to many other devices.
    • MagicOS software is functional but lacks some features found in other Android skins (e.g., specific notification handling, certain gestures) and has an iOS-like look that may not appeal to all users.
    • Primarily a concept phone that was only launched in China, making global availability and long-term support uncertain.
    • Its function as a 'purse' is limited to holding the phone itself and does not replace the utility of an actual purse for carrying other items.
