The smartphone's screen remains bright and legible under the sunlight, so you can use your phone easily outside without searching for the shade.

For all those late-night readers, the HONOR V Purse's algorithmic optimizations allow the phone's display to be as dim as two nits, so readers can comfortably read and reduce eye fatigue.

The HONOR V Purse also has multi-tier screen protection to provide longer screen durability. 

The smartphone is also designed to withstand everyday wear and tear as well as 200,000 unfolds and unclasps.

With all these cool features, you're probably wondering what the battery life of the smartphone is. 

Well, the HONOR V Purse has two silicon-carbon batteries to provide a total of 4,500mAh in battery capacity, which helps users remain connected online all the time!
