Honor had an online event today in Europe where it unveiled a couple of new products. Among the products announced are the Honor 9A smartphone, a new MagicBook, and a pair of TWS earbuds.

Honor 9A Europe

Honor 9A

The Honor 9A is a budget smartphone that was first announced in China back in March. The phone has now made its way to Europe albeit with different specs.

For the European Honor 9A, the phone has a 6.3-inch HD+ (1600 x 720) display with a waterdrop notch. There is an Helio P22 processor inside along with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage.

Unlike the Chinese version with dual rear cameras, the Honor 9A that will be sold in Europe has three rear cameras. The main sensor is a 13MP camera and you also get a 5MP ultrawide angle camera and a 2MP macro camera. The selfie camera is an 8MP sensor.

The Honor 9A has a dedicated MicroSD card slot, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, NFC, and an audio jack. It also has an FM radio with a built-in antenna, Huawei Histen 6.0, and a Smart PA audio system. There is a 5000mAh battery inside but the phone only supports 5W charging. It also supports reverse charging. The phone runs Magic UI 3.1 based on Android 10 out of the box and with HMS.

The phone is available in Midnight Black and Phantom Blue. It will go on sale on July 1 for €149.9.

 

MagicBook 14

The Honor MagicBook 14 has also made its way to Europe. The MagicBook 14 has a pretty gorgeous design with its aluminum chassis and blue accent that goes around the lid. The bezels around the display are slim but not the slimmest we have seen. It weighs 1.38 kilograms and is 15.9 millimeters thick.

The notebook comes with a 14-inch 1080p display as expected. There is an AMD Ryzen 3500U inside along with 8GB of DDR4 RAM and 256GB of PCIe SSD storage.

For ports, you get two USB-A ports (1x USB 3.0 and 1x USB 2.0), a USB-C port, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. It also has a backlit keyboard.

Honor says it comes with a cooling fan with 49% more blades for more efficient cooling. There is a 56Wh battery inside that should last up to 10 hours. The MagicBook 14 charges via a USB-C port and supports 65W fast charging (65W charger included). This allows you to charge it from empty to 46% in just 30 minutes.

Other features of the notebook are a fingerprint scanner (buried under the power button), a retractable webcam hidden between the keys, and support for Magic-link 2.0 which allows users to mirror their Honor phones on their PC and seamlessly transfer files between both devices.

The MagicBook 14 comes with Windows 10 Home out of the box and a 1-month free subscription of Office 365. The notebook is priced at €599 (€649 with a 12-month Office 365 subscription) and comes in Space Gray and Mystic Silver. It is already available for purchase in France and will begin shipping between July 6 and July 10.
