Honor‘s MagicBook series aren’t exactly the most popular devices, but they’ve always been fairly solid. They feature fairly decent specs and nice, quality builds. Yesterday, we saw the company introduce the brand new MagicBook 15. Outside of a brief glimpse at the exterior however, details were rather scant. Now, a listing for the device has appeared on JingDong Mall, which means we get to take a nice close look at the latest Honor laptop.
Unlike before, the pre-order listing does give us an idea of what the specifications will look like. There only appears to be an Intel variant, with no AMD Ryzen variants in sight. There are also two storage options, 256GB and 512GB SSD storage. We can also see the good old Honor MagicBook fingerprint sensor power button, which is a welcome addition to the device. Finally, there’s no Windows variant, the MagicBook 15 exclusively runs Linux.
We also get a closer look at the new design, and it’s quite an interesting take. It continues to Apple Macbook look previous MagicBooks have had, but it adds a dash of colour to the equation with a ring of blue on the chamfered edges around the display. The logo on the back is also coloured with splashes of purple and blue akin to the current Honor logo.
There’s still no pricing information, though we wouldn’t expect the MagicBook 15 to cost all that much. While the pre-order listing has given us more details than before, the device is still mostly a mystery, so all we can really do for now is wait. Hopefully it’ll continue Honor’s streak of releasing fairly good high quality laptops at affordable prices.
