    Review of the Honor MagicBook X14 Pro (2024): A capable mid-range laptop

    The Honor MagicBook X14 Pro features an aluminium body that makes it look and feel like a MacBook Air, but how does it fare in the performance and battery department? Here’s my take on Honor’s latest mid-range laptop.

    Honor’s MagicBook series has made a name for itself in the mid-range laptop segment, offering a combination of performance and battery life. The company’s latest model features a 13th Gen Intel processor packed into a lightweight chassis that looks and feels like you are holding a MacBook Air. I used the Honor MagicBook X14 Pro (2024) for a few weeks, and here’s what I liked and didn’t like about the laptop.

    Design and Display

    The Honor MagicBook X14 Pro has an aluminium unibody that resembles a MacBook Air. It has a nice matte finish that isn’t susceptible to fingerprints, but I noticed that it sometimes picked up smudges, especially when I placed my smartwatch or phone on top of it. However, it was not a problem since I could just wipe them away using a cloth or my palm.
