Snapdragon-powered Honor MagicBook 14 Art laptop begins global rollout
Honor launched its ultra-light MagicBook 14 Art notebook globally in September. Initially released in China with Intel Core Ultra 5 125H and Ultra 7 155H chips, the company later announced a Snapdragon X Elite-powered version during the IFA in Berlin.
Today the laptop with the Arm-based processor is finally going on sale.

Honor called the laptop “the first AI-powered Snapdragon X Elite PC” on the market. It does have some advanced AI capabilities thanks to the Qualcomm Hexagon NPU, running generative AI LLM models over 13 billion parameters on-device.
The chip"s prime cores run at 4.0 GHz, with the rest being at 3.5 GHz. This means it is the third-most powerful variant of the X Elite (out of four) – the X1E-80-100. The rest of the laptop is the same as the Intel-powered version – LPDDR5X RAM and 1 TB SSD.

When we reviewed the MagicBook 14 Art, we were impressed with its performance, power management and battery efficiency. The Intel Core Ultra 7 variant we received is one of the best laptops to get in the 14-inch to 15-inch category, and we can"t wait to see if the Arm-based version is as good.
Sadly, Honor did not reveal the pricing and we will have to wait for store listings to revel that over the next few days.
