Huawei has unveiled the much-anticipated smartphone Honor Magic with new features, the most interesting of which is "FaceCode" that shows notifications on locked screens only to the person whose face it recognizes.

The frame of the phone is a sensor, and the home button is a fingerprint reader. Additionally, the phone possesses an eye-tracking unit on the front from Tobii. Until now, Tobii's eye-tracking units have been fitted only on laptops and monitors. The Honor Magic is the first smartphone to have one, TechCrunch reported.

The smartphone features a beautiful 5-inch AMOLED display with a 2560×1440 resolution, giving it an exceedingly high 577 PPI. Also, the phone has dual 12-megapixel cameras on the back; one color and one monochrome.

The eye-tracking technology is used for multi-factor authentication. When one picks up the phone, the frame senses how the user is holding it, the sensor checks the eyes and if it is the registered owner, the phone unlocks right away.

Beside the interesting specs mentioned above, Huawei's custom Android build adds context-sensitive information to a lot of apps like Wechat, Maps, and the browser. Holding down the home button in a browser pulls up lots of information on whatever page one is visiting, presumably more news stories, Wikipedia entries and so on.

The ultra special features of the device include "Driving Recognition" when you're behind the wheel and "Dark Room Recognition" in which the device automatically turns on its flash.

However, like many other Huawei's devices, the Honor Magic will be available in China only, with little chance of appearing on in other countries. The smartphone is priced at around $522 and is available only in black and white.
