With the new MagicBook Art 14, Honor offers a great subnotebook with a high-resolution OLED touchscreen and a Meteor Lake processor. The attachable webcam is also a real innovation that works excellently. Cooling is provided by a vapor chamber.

It’s difficult to comment on value without UK or EU pricing just yet, but if Honor gets it right, it could be on to a winner with the MagicBook Art 14. Its offering of an Intel Core Ultra 7, 32GB of RAM and 1TB of speedy SSD storage delivers solid everyday performance and it offers over 10 hours of battery life that bests competing ultrabooks.It’s also a bit of a looker, with a unique design and a modular webcam that allows for refreshingly thin bezels around the screen. That 14.6-inch OLED screen is also noteworthy, sporting touchscreen support, a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a pixel-packed 3.1K resolution that’s great for number crunching and binging YouTube.It might not have the fastest SSD storage speeds around, and the lack of a discrete GPU option means creatives may need to look elsewhere, but those looking for a dependable, portable workhorse will find the Honor MagicBook Art 14 to be a great option.

When we first saw Honor's new MagicBook Art 14 up-close at its IFA 2024 launch, we were impressed - and even more so once we went hands-on the ultra-slim, ultra-lightweight laptop, with its smooth vine-leaf design and performance-led specs. So, away from the bright lights of the big tech event, and armed with our trusty benchmarking software, we were keen to put the hardware to the test. In short, the Honor MagicBook Art 14 is a great choice for anyone wanting an ultra-portable laptop without sacrificing power or screen size. To ensure there's ample power for creative tasks, this laptop features the latest Intel Core Ultra processor, which is partnered with Arc Graphics. This helps to deliver solid performance on the 14.6-inch screen for a range of uses, including power-hungry creative applications like Photoshop and Resolve. Comparisons to the similarly creator-driven Apple MacBook Air are inevitable.

The HONOR MagicBook Art 14 is a great laptop, there’s no denying that. It’s made out of premium materials, thin, light, has a great keyboard, offers good performance, and much more. It’s not perfect, of course, but still… it’s a fantastic offering from HONOR. Considering all that, it’s not exactly cheap. This is an ultrabook, basically, and it’s in the premium range. If you do have the money to get it, and you’re looking for a true productivity machine that is easy to carry around despite its 14.6-inch display… it doesn’t get much better than this, especially if you want a Windows OS pre-installed.

Between testing various devices professionally, and some catastrophically bad luck/decision making on a personal level, I've spent a lot of time on a lot of laptops over the last couple of years. As far as work-focused machines go, this ranks amongst the best and may actually be king of the silicon mountain. It ticks all of the boxes when it comes to a travel laptop. It's light, it doesn't feel like it's about to combust the second you dare open more than three tabs on Chrome, the battery life is enough to get you through a full working day, it charges via USB-C, the speakers are nice, the screen is fantastic, and it's very comfortable to type on. If I was in the market for a new work laptop, this isn't even a case of "it would be a strong contender," I'd just buy this one.

In terms of design, Honor is largely onto a winner. The thin and lightweight nature of the MagicBook 14 Art has to be held to be believed, especially with a high-end 14.6-inch screen and pretty powerful internals packed within. There are some early concerns, especially with durability with noticeable flex in the chassis, but that – and full benchmark testing – will be properly addressed in our full review, coming very soon.

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact.
In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.

In 2014 Huawei created the sub brand Honor and offers certain smartphone series under this name. Occasionally the products are also called Huawei Honor.
The market share of Honor products is manageable, but there are several reviews on Honor smartphones with average ratings (as of 2016).
91.94%: There are not very many models that are rated better. Most of the assessments are in percentage ranges below that. The tested product is not considered perfect, but the sources give a clear purchase recommendation.
