Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes with a detachable webcam and two CPU platforms

Even though the Honor MagicBook Art 14 has been around for some time, the laptop just received a Snapdragon update. That is not the only highlight of this device though, as it takes a really innovative approach with its webcam too! Let’s discuss the Honor MagicBook Art 14 more in this article and its expected price in Nepal too.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 Overview

Detachable Webcam

The main “wow” factor of this laptop is definitely its webcam. Normally, it sits hidden inside the laptop, pretending to be a button on the side. However, after you press it, the 1080P FHD camera reveals itself. Then you can magnetically attach it on top of your screen and voila! It works just like a regular webcam, which you can also flip to the other side if you want to show whatever is behind you.

Design and Display

This innovative approach has allowed Honor to keep thin bezels around the screen of the MagicBook Art 14. Despite having an all-metal body, the laptop is slim and light measuring just 11.50 mm in thickness and weighing approximately 1.03 kg. It comes in two colours: monotone Emerald Green, and Sunrise White with a gradient finish.

Due to its thin build, it does not cram wide port options. However, with a Thunderbolt 4, a full-function USB-C, one USB-A, an HDMI, and a combo audio jack, it should facilitate regular folks and business personnel well enough.

Moving on to the front, this laptop comes with a 14.6-inch touchscreen. It is an OLED panel with a 3:2 aspect ratio and a 3.1K resolution. The Honor MagicBook Art 14 can switch between 60Hz and 120Hz refresh rate and offers 700 nits of typical brightness. It also covers 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut and gives a vibrant viewing experience. Furthermore, it has TÜV Rheinland hardware-level low blue light and flicker-free certification along with 4,320Hz PWM dimming.

Performance

The Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes in two processor choices — Intel and Qualcomm. If you choose Intel you can either have Intel Core Ultra 5 125H or Ultra 7 155H. Meanwhile, if you go with Qualcomm, it appears the only option available right now is the Snapdragon X Elite X1E-80-100. It isn’t the strongest processor in the series, but it should hold enough capability to help you power through your tasks and on-device AI demands.

Additionally, the laptop can be configured with dual-channel LPDDR5X memory with a frequency of 7,467MHz. There are only two choices for the RAM capacity, which are 16GB and 32GB. Contrarily, the Honor MagicBook Art 14 comes in a single storage option i.e. 1TB. Powering everything is a 60Wh battery, which can fully charge in just over 1.5 hours. The company does not clarify the wattage of the charging speed though. Likewise, the laptop has a cooling system as well, complete with a heat dissipation vapour chamber.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 Price in Nepal and Availability

This laptop was initially launched with Intel processors in China — its home country a few months back. In the meantime, Honor MagicBook Art 14 Snapdragon was announced at the IFA 2024 with expansion to other regions. The Intel options start at CNY 7,999 and go up to CNY 9,499. However, the price of the Qualcomm variant is still under wraps.

Regardless, if the Honor MagicBook Art 14 makes its way to Nepal, we expect its price to start at NPR 181,999.

What’s glowing on in the Apple’s “It’s Glowtime.” event?

What’s glowing on in the Apple’s “It’s Glowtime.” event?

Well, well, well! It’s that time of the year again! Yes, after so much hush-hush, finally the new iPhones are coming. Not just iPhone though. Apple has dubbed this event “It’s Glowtime.” and we are here to discuss the details of it and also talk about what might go down.

Apple “It’s Glowtime.” Event Overview

Initially, Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman predicted the event would be held on 10 September. However, he was off the mark by a day. Regardless, here is what you can expect from the event:

New iPhones, of course

The iPhone 16 series is definitely the key highlight of the Apple “It’s Glowtime.” event. The series will include the base model, Plus, Pro, and Pro Max.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are also expected to come with a separate camera button on the left corner of the iPhone. Moreover, rumours hint that the new iPhones will come with a few design tweaks and Apple A18 chipsets across the board. The Pro models will obviously go with the Pro chipset. Meanwhile, the base and the Plus variants will be getting the regular Apple A18 processor, which might be the Apple A17 Pro in disguise.

For more detailed information about the iPhone series, please check out here:

iPhone 16 Plus

iPhone 16 Pro

iPhone 16 Pro Max

Siri with AI and iOS 18

The American tech giant announced that it was revamping its voice assistant — Siri in the WWDC24 “Action Packed.” event back in June. During the announcement, we saw that the entire screen glowed when activating Siri. And now we know that there will be a redesigned Siri, which is no longer a floating orb at the bottom of your screen, instead it now extends along the edges of your display.

In the same event, Apple also introduced iOS 18, which has been available in beta for some time now. We can expect the final release of the OS at the event. Furthermore, the new iPhone should boot on iOS 18 straight out of the box. However, it seems like the much-expected Apple Intelligence features won’t be available in IOS 18.0, a clear disappointment for many eagerly awaiting these advancements.

Apple Watch 10

Sources are also expecting the launch of the tenth-generation Apple Watch at the “It’s Glowtime.” event. Ideally, it would be named “Apple Watch 10”. However, we know what happened with the iPhone naming. So, there is a chance that it might be dubbed “Apple Watch X” instead.

There isn’t much buzz about what the new Apple Watch will bring. However, it is expected to come with an upgraded chip, a slimmer case, and possibly an Action button similar to that on the Apple Watch Ultra 2. Additionally, a switch to a microLED display and the ability to detect hypertension and sleep apnea are in the talks. If this turns out to be true, the new feature might not be available at launch but could be introduced later via a software update to watchOS 11.

Along with that, there is also chatter of an Apple Watch Ultra 3. Even though the current version was released just last year it might seem early for a new model, but Apple could be adding new features, like better specs, new watch faces, and possibly improved battery life. We will have to wait and watch what happens with the watch this time. 👀

New AirPods?

Apple doesn’t update its earbuds every year like its other devices. The last time the base AirPods got an update was in 2021 with the introduction of 3rd Gen. The Pro model did get a refresh in 2022, but it’s been some time since the regular AirPods got one. Hence, Apple will likely launch the AirPods 4th Gen in the “It’s Glowtime.” event.

There are talks of AirPods rocking IR blasters, but that won’t happen until 2026. Apple will apparently be giving active noise cancellation to the base AirPods this time. Sources speculate that this move is in response to Samsung offering ANC on their base Buds3. It’s good news regardless of whatever the intent was. Additionally, the AirPods 4th Gen will likely switch to USB-C charging as well.

Additionally, Mark Gurman has hinted that we’ll see two new AirPods today, so the other one is mostly likely the AirPods Max 2 which will be announced today but will “be coming later” most likely at the October event.

No Ipads?

While an iPad may not be on the immediate list of the much-anticipated “It’s Glowtime.”, we can look forward to the possibility of a redesigned Mac mini and the debut of M4-powered MacBooks. For that stay tuned for an exciting October.

When and where to watch the Apple “It’s Glowtime.” Event?

The Apple “It’s Glowtime.” event will be held on 9 September 2024 at 10 AM PST. The high-profile individuals who received an invite will join the event in person at the Steve Jobs Theatre at Apple Park. For us regular folks, we can tune into the live stream of the event on Apple’s official website, YouTube, or Apple TV. Lastly, for Nepali viewers, the event will go live at 10:45 PM on the same day. With that, it is important to remember that if any of the products mentioned above are not released today, they will likely be launched at the October event.

Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro arrives with an overclocked 8 Gen 3 and a built-in cooling fan!

Mid-last year Nubia launched its first-ever (gaming) tablet — the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet. Now the company has launched a Pro version/follow-up of sorts to it. In this article, we will look at the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro in further detail while also discussing its potential price in Nepal.

Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro Overview

Design and Display

Right off the bat, the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro gives pro-gamer vibes. It has a CNC-milled aviation-grade aluminium unibody with a strip of aluminosilicate glass on the side, exposing the tablet internals. There is also an RGB LED light that adds to the feel of the tablet. The tablet is available in two colour options: Deuterium Front Transparent Silver Wings and Deuterium Front Transparent Dark Night. In simpler words, black and white.

Moving on to the front, it dons a 10.9-inch LCD stretching 2.8K in resolution. It also offers a smooth 144Hz refresh rate and 840Hz instant touch sampling rate. Furthermore, it carries for SGS certification for low blue light emission. We sadly do not know the colour depth or the peak brightness the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro offers.

Performance

The Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro does not hold back in the performance department either. It is led by an overclocked variant of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that can achieve a peak clock speed of 3.4GHz. Additionally, the GPU on this thing can hit a frequency of 1GHz as well. In contrast, the regular chipset caps out at a CPU and GPU frequency of 3.3GHz and 0.77GHz respectively.

The processor is further assisted by LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. The memory choice includes 12GB, 16GB, and a whopping 24GB capacity. Similarly, for storage, you can choose between 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. When listing them individually that may sound like a lot, but the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro is actually available in just three configurations. The memory and storage are coupled with one another on the same hierarchy. Software-wise, it boots on Android 14 with REDMAGIC OS 9.5 on top.

Cooling system and the rest

With all the beefy hardware and gaming going on, the insides of the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro will heat up for sure. This is why, the company has equipped the device with the “PAD Magic Cooling ICE 2.0”. The cooling system includes an actual 17 mm x 17 mm centrifugal fan inside that can go up to 20,000 RPM. This fan is surely one of the main highlights of the tablet, as it is likely the first time we are seeing something like this on a tablet. Other than that, the cooling system includes nine other components including a bunch of alloy, graphene, and copper foils for heat dissipation, air circulation ducts, heat pipe, and thermal gel. The tablet utilises even its aluminium back panel to keep the thermals in check.

Everything is powered by a 10,100 mAh battery that supports 120W fast wired charging. It has a main camera and a selfie camera which are 50MP and 20MP, in the same order. Moreover, the tablet packs a quad-speaker setup and an 0815 dual X-axis linear motor to enhance the gaming experience. It also has a triple-microphone setup clearer communication. There is a fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button on the top of the frame (which turns into a side when held horizontally). The NFC tag sits in the same vicinity as well. Lastly, the Nubia Red Magic Gaming Tablet Pro can be used like a laptop by attaching a keyboard too.
