If you’ve been keeping an eye on the latest gadgets, Honor just dropped a trifecta: the Magic V5 smartphone, MagicPad 3 tablet, and the MagicBook Art 14 laptop. Now here’s the interesting part — all three are incredibly slim, lightweight, and designed to feel premium in hand. But which one truly earns the title of the “clear winner”? In my experience, the answer isn’t as obvious as you might think.
Magic V5: The Sleek Superphone
Honor’s Magic V5 is a super-slim smartphone that feels almost futuristic. Measuring just a few millimeters thick, it’s surprisingly comfortable to hold despite packing a large 6.78-inch display.
What impressed me the most is its 120Hz OLED screen — scrolling and gaming feels buttery smooth. On the flip side, battery life is decent but not groundbreaking, so heavy users might need a mid-day charge. That said, its design and ultra-lightweight form factor make it one of the most stylish phones you can slip into a pocket.
If you’re someone who prioritizes portability without sacrificing a vibrant display, the Magic V5 could be your daily driver.
MagicPad 3: The Tablet That Works Anywhere
Next up, the MagicPad 3 — Honor’s latest tablet aimed at productivity and entertainment. Its slim body and near-borderless display make it ideal for reading, video calls, or sketching with the optional stylus.
In my experience, the MagicPad 3 really shines when paired with a Bluetooth keyboard. Whether you’re drafting emails or taking notes in a café, it almost feels like carrying a tiny laptop in your bag. On the downside, while it’s lightweight, the tablet doesn’t come with a charging powerhouse — a full charge can take longer than expected.
I tested it during a weekend trip, using it for casual work, media streaming, and note-taking. The convenience of a tablet that fits in one hand without sacrificing performance was genuinely surprising.
MagicBook Art 14: Laptop for the Minimalist
Finally, the MagicBook Art 14 is Honor’s answer to a sleek, professional laptop. Weighing just under 1.5 kg, it’s perfect for students and professionals who travel frequently.
The laptop’s 2.5K display is bright and crisp, making it great for creative work. One small detail I appreciated: the hinge allows a wide tilt angle, so you can get comfortable whether you’re on a couch or at a café table. That said, while the performance is solid for everyday tasks, it may struggle with heavy gaming or video rendering.
Its slimness and light weight make it a true “carry-anywhere” device, especially for content creators and remote workers who value portability over raw power.
Which One Truly Wins?
Now, here’s the kicker. All three devices are exceptional in their own right, but if I had to crown a winner, the Magic V5 smartphone takes the edge — mostly because it combines portability, design, and display technology in a single pocketable device. The laptop and tablet are fantastic, but the Magic V5 is the gadget that impresses first on sight and keeps you impressed in daily use.
So, whether you’re hunting for a super-slim phone, laptop, or tablet, Honor has something to offer. My personal pick? The Magic V5 smartphone — it’s sleek, practical, and surprisingly enjoyable in everyday life.
