The Huawei Matebook X Pro is a laptop designed and produced by Huawei. It is part of the Huawei MateBook line of laptops, and has been compared to Apple's MacBook, both in design and interface.

Release[edit]

The Huawei Matebook X Pro laptop was first announced at MWC 2018.[1][2] An updated version was announced at MWC 2019, but was sold in China only until end of 2019.[3] The model of 2020 was advertised at "Huawei Consumer Business Product and Strategy Virtual Launch" due to cancellation of MWC.[4]

Features[edit]

Software[edit]

The Huawei Matebook X Pro ships with Windows 10 (Home or Pro), Microsoft's personal computer operating system.

Hardware[edit]

The Huawei Matebook X Pro is the first laptop in Huawei's lineup to feature what the company is calling "FullView" design, giving the laptop a screen to body ratio of 91%.[5] The display is a 13.9-inch LTPS touchscreen with an aspect ratio of 3:2. The resolution is 3000 × 2000 at 260 PPI with a claimed viewing angle of 178 degrees and a maximum brightness of 450 nits.[6]

In North America the laptop comes in two configurations with the base model using an 8th-generation Intel Core i5-8250U processor with 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of SSD storage and Intel UHD Graphics 620 while the higher-end model packs an 8th-generation Intel Core i7-8550U processor with 16 GB of RAM, 512 GB of SSD storage and a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce MX150 with 2 GB GDDR5 memory.[6]

Reception[edit]

The Huawei Matebook X Pro received positive reviews.

Dan Seifert from "The Verge" praised the laptop's display, performance and design saying "Huawei’s new MateBook X Pro is the best laptop right now." Seifert also compares the keyboard of the Matebook X Pro to Apple's MacBook Pro saying "The keyboard has low travel (1.22mm), but it’s not as low profile or annoying to type on as the keyboard on a MacBook Pro."[7]

Daniel Rubino from "Windows Central" also compared the Matebook X Pro to Apple's MacBook Pro noting, "It may look like a MacBook Pro, but Huawei's latest goes beyond our expectations." concluding that the Matebook X Pro is "An excellent performer with few drawbacks."[8]
