Glory MagicBook14 2022 version of this product has 20 hours of ultra-long battery life, as well as high-performance graphics and 2k eye protection full screen, very thin and light, easy to carry, so the glory magicbook14 2022 parameters and configuration of the specific how? Let's take a look at it.
AppearanceAs a 14-inch small size thin notebook, glory MagicBook 14 three circumference dimensions were 307.51 * 227.56 * 16.9mm, weighing only 1.54kg.
This size and weight in the 14-inch thin and light notebook belong to the middle of the upper. One reason is because it's an all-metal-bodied thin and light notebook, and the other is because it's a 3:2 ratio notebook, so it's a section wider than a regular 16:9.
The design of the Honor MagicBook 14 inherits the family's minimalist style, and the use of an all-metal body makes the whole thing look simple and generous, with no other elements on the front than the Honor brand logo, which is a refreshingly high-end look and feel.
The B-side is a mirrored screen with a high screen-to-body ratio, and the top and bottom are almost equal in width, making it quite vast. The specific parameters are 14 inches 2160*1440 resolution. A 3:2 screen like this is great for navigating office documents, and you'll be able to read two or three more lines on a page than anyone else.
As measured by our colorimeter, the screen's gamut covers about 94.8% of sRGB, and the brightness is close to 400nit, making it a pretty good office-oriented screen.
The measured average color deviation of ?E is only 0.16, and the maximum color deviation of ?E is 0.94, which is good enough for some creative production of visual design.
The C-side is an optimized silo-style chocolate keyboard with very large keys that are quite comfortable to hold, and supports backlit switches. In the upper right corner is the power fingerprint 2-in-1 key, the height and pressure factor are differentiated from the other keys, so it's not easy to accidentally touch it.
Below the keyboard is a long trackpad with a decent size and a near-frosted touch that feels good in the hand. There's a raised NFC sticker on the right side, and a swipe of the Honor phone allows for file transfer and multi-screen collaboration.
The D-side is an all-metal back design. There are dual speaker openings at the bottom.
On the left side of the Honor MagicBook 14 are two full-featured USB-C ports and audio ports, and on the right side is a USB 3.2 (Type-A) port and an HDMI port, which is able to meet the number of 1A1C when powered on, and is still able to meet the needs of daily office work.
The original power adapter is a highlight this time. Glory gave a 100W Gallium Nitride charger (standard on the Solo version), which is very small and can be shared with the phone, realizing that you only need to bring one charger when you go out, greatly improving the portability of going out.
Hardware configuration
Before we test the performance, let's do a teardown so we can get a general impression of the hardware on the Honor MagicBook 14. The disassembly of the Honor MagicBook 14 is very simple, removing the screws to open the back cover without any particularly tight snaps.
At the top is a dual heatpipe, dual-fan design, with a Core i5-12500H Xpress processor and MX550 discrete graphics below, and the heatpipes used for compression are thick and appear to be extra beefed up for performance release.
Underneath is Samsung's PM9A1 SSD, a very capable 512GB PCIe4.0*4 SSD.
At the bottom is a large 75Wh battery, which is a really big capacity for a 14-inch thin and light notebook, and I'm sure it will do well in battery life tests.
One of the highlights of the Honor MagicBook 14 is that it packs a powerful specification of SPL + DX into a small body. The version in the hands of IT Home is equipped with a gaming-class 12th-generation Core SPL processor, the i5-12500H, which is based on the intel 7nm process.
This is a new hybrid architecture.
The i5-12500H is the best bang for the buck among the new hybrid architecture. It has 4 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores, with the performance cores supporting Hyper-Threading technology*** for a total of 12 cores and 16 threads, which makes this generation of multicore performance a quantum leap forward. 18MB of L3 cache and 45W of baseline power consumption remain unchanged from the previous generation.
For graphics, Pride offers a choice of Core, MX550, and RTX 2050 Lightcatcher editions, and the MX550 we have in our hands is NVIDIA's entry-level solo display for thin and light notebooks.
The MX550 has 2GB of video memory, but has a boost in memory speed compared to the MX450, as we'll see in the subsequent score session.
Next up, we moved on to the grill to see how well Honor's proud performance is unleashed. We used AIDA64 to single-bake the CPU first, and after a period of single-baking, the CPU power consumption can be stabilized at around 50W, and the temperature is only around 77℃, which is quite good, and it's not a problem to run the full H45 processor.
When single-baking the GPU, it is possible to achieve an ultra-high performance of 60W at around 81°C. 60W is plenty for a GPU like the MX550, which, after all, is built on the same mold as the RTX 2050, which is more than enough to power the MX550.
And in the most stressful double bake, the Honor MagicBook 14 delivers 25W+45W, or 70W of performance. For a 14-inch thin and light notebook, 70W is a pretty good performance. And the overall temperature is not very high at this point, taking care of the comfort level during office hours.
OS Turbo technology with outstanding battery life
Before the release of Honor MagicBook 14, OS Turbo technology caused a lot of discussion.
Can OS Turbo technology really go above and beyond the system layer to maintain fast response and optimal energy efficiency? I wasn't sure before I tested it, but the results really exceeded my expectations.
We used the PCMark 8 Modern Office test to simulate a continuous office environment, with WiFi on, brightness adjusted to 50%, and power saving mode on.
In the end, MagicBook 14 ran continuously for 11 hours and 24 minutes before stopping, which is amazing. Unlike PCMark 10, PCMark 8 doesn't pause during the test - it's a solid 11 and a half hours of continuous operation!
Performance tests
What about the theoretical performance of the Honor MagicBook 14. First of all, the CPU score test, in the CineBench R20 test,
single-core 662 pts, multi-core 5493 pts, in the CineBench R20 test, single-core 1722 pts, multi-core 14342 pts, both single-core and multi-core than the previous generation are quite a lot of improvement.
In the CPU-Z test, with 727 single-threaded and 6,275 multi-threaded scores, the single-threaded has surpassed the previous-generation desktop i9-11900K, and the multi-threaded is only off by about 5%.
In terms of GPU performance, the full-blooded MX550 on the Honor MagicBook 14 scored 2,879 graphics points in 3D Mark's Time Spy test, which is between a 1050Ti and a 1060 3G, making it suitable for playing mainstream online games.
The memory on the Honor MagicBook 14 is the onboard LPDDR5 4800MHz memory, which helps unleash performance, but has higher latency. The scores are shown below:
The Honor MagicBook 14 is equipped with a PM9A1 SSD from Samsung, which has good read and write speeds and is perfectly suited for daily use.
