With all of the political wrangling occurring with Huawei and Honor, one product line that each corporations appear to have the ability to push is the laptop computer and pocket book enterprise. Both Huawei and Honor have introduced gadgets powered by the most recent Intel and AMD processors, and regardless of the primary few years of some very nice designs, just like the Matebook X Pro or the Magicbook 14, the 2 corporations are actually beginning to get a bit extra adventurous. Enter the primary gaming laptop computer, the Hunter V700.
The Honor Hunter V700
This new product line from Honor begins with an attention-grabbing idea which takes benefit of the robust id and product design workforce that the corporate has. The Honor Hunter model can use a single H to determine the marque, and on this occasion they put it onto a full bodied gaming laptop computer.
The commonplace ‘15.6-inch chassis’ dimension truly holds a 16.1-inch show, enabled by the 4.7 mm side-to-side bezels. This is a 1080p IPS panel that provides 144 Hz refresh charges, albeit at solely a 300 nit most brightness. Inside the chassis is what we’d usually think about a ‘standard’ gaming pocket book setup. There is an Intel 10th Gen Comet Lake processor, as much as the Core i7-10750H, paired with an NVIDIA graphics card as much as the RTX 2060 6 GB. The prime mannequin comes with 16 GB of DDR4-2666, which could be consumer upgraded to 32 GB, and there are two NVMe M.2 slots, one in every of which comes preinstalled as much as 1 TB.
The chassis itself is an aluminium magnesium alloy, which ought to show to be extraordinarily mild, in addition to help with cooling. Based on Honor’s personal testing, the corporate states that in full energy virus mode (AIDA64 FPU + Furmark for 72 minutes), the CPU will eat 45 W sustained, and the GPU will eat 101 W sustained, peaking at 77ºC, enabling a constant minimal gaming efficiency whatever the title.
This is partly enabled by the ‘wind valley channel’ created when the laptop computer is opened, offering an 8.5mm consumption for 2 12 V followers which Honor says enhance airflow quantity by 40% over a standard design – you may see the little further ‘toes’ that gives this opening. In Honor’s press launch, they name the way in which the chassis opens to assist this airflow as a ‘rotating shaft of the wind’, which is likely one of the extra amusing phrase parings in a laptop computer press launch of late. Honor states that the utmost audible noise from the followers for a consumer is 49 dBA, and the cooling retains the WASD space beneath 31ºC.
In line with the gaming theme, the keyboard is a 4-zone RGB back-lit implementation, and options 1.8mm key journey on the chiclet design. The WASD space has its personal spotlight, the area bar has been widened, there’s a full quantity pad, and the arrow keys have been moved down barely by virtually half a key to make them stand out. The motif on the lid of the pocket book can be RGB, with management software program supplied. On the audio entrance, Honor has licenced Nahimic’s audio software program toolkit, enabling 5.1 and seven.1 audio simulation in addition to optimized EQ profiles for particular video games.
Connectivity begins with Wi-Fi 6 but in addition consists of 3.5mm audio, one USB 2.zero port, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a Type-C port with DisplayPort, and a HDMI 2.zero output.
In line with different Honor and Huawei laptops, inbuilt NFC permits customers to attach up the laptop computer to their smartphone to allow options akin to display screen recording for PC video games, stay streaming for cellular video games, file switch, and name migration. The display screen recording and stay streaming sections are actually attention-grabbing options.

As all the time with new design concepts like this Honor is beginning with the Chinese market first. The Hunter V700 can be out there within the Chinese market from September 27th, with three completely different configurations:
- i7-10750H, RTX 2060, 16 GB, 1x 1 TB, 144 Hz: RMB…
