Honor Magic V6 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8

EDITORIAL: Honor turned on the heat with V6 by redesigning the hinge, getting the IP69 protection and putting a 6600mAh battery into a 4mm thick phone (when opend). Pictures V6 takes are probably better then what any other foldable can make, videos are solid but the phone shines in all things software with tons of features, 7 years of Magic OS updates and a full multi window, multitasking environment on it's inner screen and beyond.

EDITORIAL: After years of following Apple's lead with less innovation and more of trying to lock it's customers into the Samsung ecosystem, world's biggest phone maker is waking up again. The massive change doesn't stop with adoption of Silicone Carbon anode battery tech, it expands to new phones like this wide-fold model and the expected S27 Pro phone sometime early next year. Innovation effort is back and that's exactly what we should celebrate. The strange naming solution shouldn't confuse you - Z Fold 8 is not an upgrade of the Z Fold 7 - this is a brand new phone type in format invented by Huawei (Pura X Max, May 2026) and expected to also be adopted by Apple's first foldable phone in Sep 2026. As a first time effort, the Z Fold 8 shines with excellent build and screens and a mature software experience that includes DeX as well. But there is more good news: endurance is easily a full day and can go to proper 36hrs when the phone is used unfolded.
