Honor is expanding its laptop lineup with the MagicBook 14 (2026), a new 14-inch notebook that combines Intel’s Panther Lake platform with one of the largest batteries currently found in this size category, as we have cover earlier, following the company’s high end laptops like premium notebooks.
The laptop is offered with Intel Core Ultra 5 336H, Core Ultra 5 338H, and Core Ultra X7 358H processor options, expanding Honor’s adoption of Intel’s latest mobile lineup. Higher-end configurations include Intel’s latest Xe3-based integrated graphics with 12 Xe cores running up to 2.5GHz, along with a built-in NPU rated for 50 TOPS of AI performance, aligning with Intel’s newer AI-focused mobile platforms.
It can deliver up to 85W of performance in high-power mode. Cooling is handled by dual fans, a large D12 heat pipe, and an updated airflow system, while fan noise can drop as low as 17dB during lighter workloads.
The display comes with a 14-inch IPS panel with 2880 × 1800 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 430 nits brightness, putting it in line with other recent premium laptop panels. It also offers a 16:10 aspect ratio, full sRGB color coverage, 1,200:1 contrast ratio, and 243 PPI pixel density. An anti-glare coating comes standard.
Memory runs on LPDDR5X at speeds up to 9600MT/s depending on configuration. Storage support includes dual M.2 2280 SSD slots, which remains uncommon in most thin-and-light laptops and gives the MagicBook 14 better upgrade flexibility than many rivals.
For ports, Honor includes two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports, HDMI 2.1 TMDS, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Compared to the MagicBook Pro 14, this model drops Thunderbolt 4 support in favor of standard USB-C connectivity.
The laptop features an aluminum alloy chassis, weighs 1.39 kg (3.06 lbs), and measures 16.5 mm thick. Honor claims battery life of up to 15.6 hours in local office-use testing, helped by the large 92Wh battery pack.
Pricing starts at 6,999 yuan in China for the Core Ultra 5 336H model with 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD. The top-end Core Ultra X7 358H version is priced at 8,799 yuan.
