EDITORIAL: The 3rd try at Honor fold phone gets us some great innovation and solutions. V 3 is a very competent foldable with a capable camera system, very bright external screen, stylus support and water immersion down to 2.5m. Battery has seen a minimal upgrade and it shows in phone's mediocre endurance.

PROs
very solid build, fast Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with UFS 4.0 performance, fast sub-50min 66W (even has 50W wireless) charging, 2 >400ppi LTPO AMOLED screens with Dolby Vision (external goes over 2000nits), IPX8 (no dust - only water immersion) protection, very good imaging from a 50MP 23mm main + 50MP 90mm periscope telephoto (both OIS PDAF) + 40MP 16mm AF ultrawide setup, 2 20MP 21mm selfies, reliable video recording, looking OS update promise, desktop replacement functionality, fast USB-C 3.1 with Display Port 1.2 and OTG and stylus support
CONs
6mm wider then Z Fold, 230g heavy, mediocre 24hr endurance from a 5150mAh battery, no dust IP protection, no expandable storage, desktop replacement functionality can be improved, stereo speakers could be louder, limited market availability

EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, charging, screen and imaging performance) Google improved the 10 Pro Fold by making it narrower, thinner and almost 20g lighter, upgraded the processor and made screens brighter and their bezels thinner. The imaging is the same but battery lost some 200mAh to fit into a smaller body (Google stonewalls Si-C battery tech). At least wireless Q2 charging boy a body from 15W to 25W.

PROs
excellent build with full water & dust protection, very bright ~2000nits sub-400ppi 120Hz LTPO AMOLED screens (inner one is HDR10+ too), IP68 protection, reliable 48MP 24mm OIS main + okay 10.8MP 112mm OIS telefoto + below -par 10.5MP ultrawide setup, 2 10MP 23mm PDAF selfies, average video recording, 7 years of updates for stabile and feature loaded OS, basic desktop replacement functionality built into Android 17, fast USB-C 3.2 port, Satellite SOS Service
CONs
mediocre Tensor G6 (3nm) with UFS 4.0 performance, barely a day endurance from a 4800mAh lithium battery with 90min slow 30W (25W wireless) charging, no expandable memory, limited market availability
