Honor MagicBook Pro, 14, and 15 with Ryzen processors revealed - Android

The new Honor MagicBook Pro is the Ryzen version of the initial model that shipped with an Intel processor. It’s now powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 4600H APU, which comes with a 6-core, 12 thread CPU, with a 3.0GHz base and 4.0GHz boost clock speeds, and a 6-core GPU at 1.5GHz.

Keeping it cooled is a dual fan, with dual heat pipes. It also has a dual-channel 16GB DDR5 RAM and 512GB NVMe SSD.

The display uses a large 16.1-inch FHD panel with 100% sRGB coverage and 1000:1 contrast ratio. It’s undeniably large, but its aluminum chassis made it reasonably light at 1.7kg.

The Ryzen MagicBook Pro has a 56Wh battery that promisses 11-hours of video playback and charges via a 65W USB Type-C cable. Speaking of which, port selection includes a single Type-C, USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, HDMI 2.0, and a headphone jack. We also have a fingerprint scanner Huawei’s signature retractable camera hidden on the backlit keyboard.

Starting September 7, the Ryzen-powered Honor MagicBook Pro will be available in Germany and a few markets after that. It has a price of EUR899 (around Php51,500).

Next stop, we have the Ryzen Honor MagicBook 14 and 15. They are both powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 4500U processor, an upgrade to last year’s Ryzeon 3000 models. It has a 6-core, 6-thread CPU with a 2.3GHz base and 4.0GHz boost clock speeds.

There’s also the built-in 1.5GHz 6-core GPU. Plus, 8GB DDR4 RAM and 512GB NVMe SSD storage.

Obviously, their key difference is the display and batteries. The MagicBook 15 has a 15.6-inch screen, while the latter has a 14-inch screen — both at FHD resolution.

The batteries are quite odd. Honor decided the 14-inch model to have a 56Wh battery, which is larger than the 42Wh of the 15.6-inch variant.

Both models will have 65W chargers that you’d plug in its USB Type-C port. It also has a USB 3.0, USB 2.0, HDMI, and 3.5mm headphone ports. They still have the same pop-up cameras and fingerprint scanners for easy login.

The Honor Magic 14 (8GB/512GB) has a price of EUR749 and will be available in Germany, France, and UK on September 21. Initial sales will come with a free Honor Router 3, Honor wireless earphones, mouse, and Honor backpack.

On the other hand, the odd Honor MagicBook 15 (8GB/512GB) model has a cheaper price of EUR699 and will be available in October.
