Honor has moved to capture the premium mid range laptop market with the official debut of its Notebook X Plus 2026 series. The manufacturer presents two different design options which include the X14 Plus and X16 Plus that both feature metal construction and design elements that are exclusive to top end workstations. The machines will become available to consumers through retail stores in May 2026, which will target users who want both visual elegance and cutting edge processing capabilities.
The X16 Plus Professional Specifications
The Honor Notebook X16 Plus presents its main features through a 16 inch display which shows content at 2560 by 1600 pixel resolution. The panel achieves smooth visual output through its ability to display images at a 120 Hz refresh rate. Honor has selected the Intel Core Ultra 5 325 as the silicon heart for this machine, configured with a 52 W power profile. The system uses a processor combined with 16 GB of LPDDR5X 7467 memory and a 1 TB solid state drive. Honor provides users with an expansion option through an additional storage slot that enables them to boost their internal storage capacity whenever they require more space.
The X16 Plus presents a highly space efficient design that achieves 15.9 mm thickness and 1.67 kg weight. Honor has outfitted the metal chassis with a comprehensive array of physical connectors. The layout includes two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C ports, two USB Type A ports, and a dedicated HDMI 2.1 output for external displays. The device uses a 3.5 mm audio jack for sound connections while it connects to networks through Wifi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1. The device supports NFC which allows it to integrate with other devices in the ecosystem.
The X16 Plus includes an 80 Wh battery which enables users to work effectively in mobile situations according to Honor. The manufacturer claims support for 65 W fast charging to replenish the cell quickly, while a 60 W reverse charging feature allows the laptop to act as a power bank for other mobile devices. The system includes dual speakers for sound output, a 720p webcam for video calls, and a fingerprint scanner for secure login access. The features exist within a chassis that preserves the brand's trademark silver design.
