HONOR has unveiled the HONOR Magic V2, touted as the world’s thinnest inward-folding smartphone, available in Europe, including the UK.  The launch, held at the Porsche Experience Center in Leipzig, showcased HONOR’s commitment to innovation and design excellence with over 400 media representatives and partners in attendance.

The device brings premium materials like Titanium and a hing crafted through 3D printing technology—a first for foldable devices, according to the company, that said the phone’s durability isn’t just limited to the use of titanium, bringing to the table an SGS certification promising 400,000 folds (or 100 folds a day for 10 years), which gives users a sense of reliability in the everyday use, at least for a decade.

Speaking about the display, we have on this device two OLED panels up to 120 Hz, measuring 7,92″ (internal) and 6.43″ (external), incorporating 3840Hz PWM Dimming technology to minimize eye strain, ensuring comfortable viewing even during long-term use. The processor is a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, with 16GB of RAM and 256 or 512GB of storage.

In terms of imaging capture sensors, the HONOR Magic V2 features a triple rear camera setup that includes a 50MP Main Camera (f/1.9), a 50MP Ultra-Wide Camera (f/2.0), and a 20MP Telephoto Camera (f/2.4). For selfie lovers, the front-facing dual camera setup features two 16MP Cameras (f/2.2).

HONOR Magic V2: Thinnest Inward-Folding Smartphone Launched

The first human patient has received a Neuralink brain implant, according to Elon Musk. The procedure was apparently successful, with Musk saying the individual “is recovering well” one day after the surgery.

Neuralink, which aims to create brain-computer interfaces (BCI), began recruiting human patients for its first clinical trial last fall after getting the green light from the FDA. At the time, Neuralink said that people “who have quadriplegia due to cervical spinal cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)” may qualify for the study. “The initial goal of our BCI is to grant people the ability to control a computer cursor or keyboard using their thoughts alone,” the company wrote in a statement.

Musk didn’t share any other details about the procedure or the status of the trial. He said that “initial results show promising neuron spike detection.” Successfully implanting its device into a human patient would be a major milestone for the company, which Musk has claimed could one day enable people to experience alternate realities. The company is also facing a federal investigation for allegedly violating animal welfare laws.
