HONOR shared a novel approach to laptop design at IFA 2024. The Chinese tech company showed off the MagicBook Art 14. At first glance, it looked like your typical laptop with a display featuring uniform 2mm bezels on its top three sides. It'll make you question where the webcam was placed. HONOR made a detachable camera that you can hide in a recess on the side of the laptop. When you need it, you just attach it magnetically to the top via pogo pins.

The chewing gum-like webcam doesn't work wirelessly. It needs to be connected to the top of that laptop for it to work. But you can either face it towards you or away from the laptop. So, if you require to flip the view while taking conference calls, this won't require you to move the laptop around.
