Alongside the **Honor 10** which was just announced at a Honor event in China, the smartphone brand also announced its first notebook, that surprisingly takes inspiration from a smartphone.

The notebook appears to be made out of aluminium and will be available in three colour options, Glacier Silver, Star Grey and Nebula Violet in China. Pre-orders start on 19 April with the notebook going on sale from 23 April. The Core i7 variant is priced at 5,699 yuan (roughly Rs 59,800) and the Core i5 variant is priced at 4,999 yuan (roughly Rs 52,000). The Honor MagicBook features a 14-inch anti-glare display with a screen-to-body ratio of 81 percent and a thin border measuring just 5.2 mm. The notebook opens up to 180 degrees and comes with a full-size keyboard with some customised keys.
