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.
