The FCP-AN10 Honor phone, which is believed to be the upcoming Magic V3, has been spotted with a 66W fast charger in 3C’s database. The listing also reveals that the device will be supporting satellite connectivity. Unfortunately, the certification has no other information about the device.

The Magic V3 will come with the likes of the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and the upcoming Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 in the Chinese market. Like the rival devices, the Magic V3 is also expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The rumor mill is yet to reveal the other specs of the V3.

The Magic V2, which debuted in July, was praised for its amazing design by critics and users. The device weighs only 231 grams and has a thickness of only 4.7mm when unfolded. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered foldable phone has a 7.92-inch cover screen, a 6 43-inch external display, and a 5,000mAh battery with 66W fast charging.

It is likely that the Magic V3 may pack a larger battery than its predecessor and still maintain a slim and lightweight profile. Hopefully, the upcoming reports will shed light on the core specs of the V3.
