Until the Nubia Fold arrived with a 6,560mAh battery, the Honor Magic V5, which packs a 6,100mAh unit, held the title of the foldable phone with the largest battery. A new leak now suggests that Honor may once again reclaim this crown, as the upcoming Magic V6 is said to feature a battery that is at least 1,000mAh larger than its rivals.

Honor Magic V6 key specifications leaked

The Oppo Find N6 is expected to debut in Q1 2026 as the year’s first foldable phone. 2026 will also see the arrival of foldable phones from brands like Vivo, Xiaomi, Samsung, and even Apple. However, these phones are unlikely to beat the Magic V6 when it comes to battery endurance. As per a new leak by tipster Digital Chat Station, the forthcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered Honor Magic V6 has entered the development stage and has two battery size options.

The first packs a 6,900mAh dual-cell battery, while the other variant may feature an even larger 7,200mAh battery. To recall, the Magic V5 was also available in two battery variants, namely 5,820mAh and 6,100mAh, in China. The tipster added that the V6’s battery could be around 1,000mAh larger than those found in foldable phones from other brands.

While the leak does not reveal information about the wired charging speeds of the V6, it does confirm support for wireless charging. The current engineering prototype of the device is said to feature a 200-megapixel main camera along with a mid-tier periscope telephoto camera offering 3x optical zoom.

Despite packing a massive battery, the Magic V6 is expected to sport an ultra-thin design. The device is also tipped to feature a side-mounted fingerprint scanner along with dust and water resistance.

There’s no word about the Honor Magic V6’s launch date. Likely, it may debut by mid-2026 just as the Magic V6 launched in June this year.
