The Honor WIN gaming laptop is scheduled to launch on April 23rd in China. However, the company has already revealed most of the interesting parts during a recent PC technology communication conference.
The main focus is cooling. Honor is using what it calls the Dongfeng tail jet cooling engine, which is built around a new airflow system. Instead of relying on a standard internal fan layout, the company has designed what it describes as the industry’s first centrifugal axial flow mixed air system.
This setup uses the thickness at the rear of the laptop to fit four self-developed axial fans in parallel, all connected through an internal airflow duct.
According to Honor’s test data, the system pushes internal airflow beyond 6.3 CFM, with total system airflow exceeding 21 CFM. The company also worked on shrinking the fan components, reducing motor size to around 10 mm while pushing speeds past 20,000 RPM.
Compared to a typical three-fan setup, Honor claims this design increases internal airflow by 57% and overall airflow by 10%, while also lowering keyboard temperature slightly.
The cooling system is designed to support a total performance output of 270W. Honor says this allows the laptop to better sustain high loads, especially when paired with hardware like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti.
Compared to more traditional cooling approaches, the company claims a small gain in overall airflow and a 20W improvement in power handling under similar conditions.
Beyond this
Alongside the laptop, Honor also showed a 360W power adapter based on gallium nitride technology. It is designed to deliver full power while also supporting compatibility across different PC brands through interchangeable connectors. The company also introduced a set of accessories, including a backpack, gaming headset, and mouse, under the same WIN branding.
Beyond hardware, Honor used the event to talk about software and ecosystem plans. It announced what it calls the AI PC 3.0 era and introduced a new assistant, the YOYO Claw. The company describes it as part of a new category of AI-driven PCs, although details on how this will work in real use are still limited.
