HONOR has announced the launch of its V5 First Pioneers program, offering select users the opportunity to experience its upcoming foldable smartphone, the HONOR Magic V5, ahead of its regional release. The initiative follows the success of previous beta programs for the Magic V2 and V3, and reflects HONOR’s continued strategy of involving users in pre-launch feedback cycles to refine its products.
The V5 First Pioneers program is designed to give early adopters, technology enthusiasts, and HONOR fans first-hand experience with the brand’s next-generation foldable device. Participants selected for the program will receive the HONOR Magic V5 along with guidance on exploring its AI features and hardware capabilities. In return, users are expected to provide practical feedback that will inform HONOR’s product development, supporting its aim to create technology solutions that align closely with user needs.
HONOR describes the Magic V5 as its slimmest, most durable foldable to date, combining a lightweight form factor with structural strength to withstand daily use. The company has positioned the device as a hybrid product that merges the functionality of a smartphone, tablet, and laptop in one foldable form, catering to professionals and on-the-go users who require performance and versatility in a compact design.
Beyond hardware improvements, the Magic V5 incorporates advanced AI features that extend beyond routine smart device capabilities. According to HONOR, the device is designed to learn and adapt to user behaviours in real time, providing an experience that adjusts dynamically to work, entertainment, and communication needs. This reflects the company’s ongoing efforts to integrate AI as a practical assistant rather than a collection of isolated smart features.
Applications for the V5 First Pioneers program are open from 2nd July to 9th July 2025. Interested users can register via HONOR’s official signup portal within this window. Following registration, HONOR will review submissions and contact selected participants directly, providing them with the Magic V5 device and comprehensive support for the duration of the program.
The V5 First Pioneers initiative is part of HONOR’s broader approach to launching its foldable series, leveraging community feedback to fine-tune user experience ahead of market availability. As foldable smartphones continue to evolve, driven by slimmer designs, stronger materials, and integrated AI functionalities, the Magic V5 marks another step in HONOR’s efforts to expand its presence in the premium mobile segment.
For users looking to trial the Magic V5 before its official regional launch and influence its final market readiness, the V5 First Pioneers program offers an opportunity to engage directly with the brand’s latest foldable innovation.
