PROS

  1. Incredibly Thin Design: At 9.9mm folded, it is one of the thinnest foldable phones on the market.
  2. Lightweight Build: Weighing around 231g-237g, it feels closer to a standard slab phone in hand.
  3. Large Battery: Features a massive 5,000mAh silicon-carbon battery that lasts all day.
  4. Premium Hinge: The titanium hinge allows the phone to close completely flat with no visible gap.
  5. Excellent Displays: Both internal and external screens are 120Hz LTPO OLED with very high peak brightness.
  6. Minimal Crease: The inner screen crease is barely noticeable compared to competitors.
  7. High Performance: Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, offering top-tier speed.
  8. Fast Charging: Supports 66W wired charging to quickly top up the large battery.
  9. Usable Outer Screen: The 6.43-inch cover display has a standard aspect ratio, making it easy to use for daily tasks.
  10. Infrared Blaster: Includes an IR blaster for controlling home appliances

CONS

  1. Very Expensive: The high price point, often around €2,000, makes it a premium luxury purchase.
  2. No Wireless Charging: Lacks wireless charging, which is a common feature in this price range.
  3. No IP Rating: Lacks official dust or water resistance certification, reducing durability confidence.
  4. Camera Performance: Cameras are good but fall behind top-tier flagships in low light and zoom.
  5. Older Processor: Uses Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 while competitors moved to Gen 3 shortly after its release.
  6. Bloatware Presence: Pre-installed apps like TikTok and Booking.com are frustrating on a premium device.
  7. Difficult to Open: The extremely slim design makes the phone challenging to open with one hand.
  8. Software Optimization: MagicOS needs more polish and foldable-friendly features compared to competitors.
  9. Slow Updates: The device sometimes launches with older Android versions and has slower, fewer, updates.
  10. Unbalanced Speakers: Both stereo speakers are positioned on the same side when opened, affecting audio immersion.
