According to Omdia's 2Q26 research, HONOR ranked No. 4 among smartphone brands in both the Philippines and Malaysia, putting the company among the top five smartphone vendors in both markets.That performance is notable given the condition of the broader regional market.

A larger battery, fast charging, and improved durability can make the format easier to live with beyond simply having a bigger screen when the phone is unfolded.HONOR Magic V6 PriceThe HONOR Magic V6 is available for pre-order from August 25 to September 4, 2026, priced at ₱119,999.
