Worth-it verdict
Is Honor Magic V5 worth buying?
ShortlistDeal onlyTarget $1,393
Foldables need extra scrutiny on durability, cover-screen workflow, repair terms, and battery compromises. Still early enough to buy without major release-age concern. The review score does not fully justify list price; look for refurb or sale pricing.
