This is a super-thin laptop that comes with a sharp display and a port dock. Unfortunately, this device doesn’t come with a touchscreen feature, which represents a huge minus.
Huawei has managed to reach an incredible design approach with the new MateBook X. This new device comes with a very slim design that makes it look very premium. But, the good part about this laptop is that its price is reasonable.
Customers will be able to buy the new Huawei MateBook X at the price of 1.098 dollars.
At this price, customers will receive a thin 13-inch device that features solid computing power and a great style.
The display is very crisp and the laptop’s body is made out of sturdy aluminum.
However, we must say that Huawei’s device also has some great competitors on the market, for example the Razer Blade Stealth.
As we mentioned, the new Huawei MateBook X has a nice design. Its body measures 11.24 inches wide, 0.5 inches thick, and 8.2 inches deep.
With these measurements, we must say that this device is the world’s thinnest fanless 13-inch laptop.
Moreover, the new Huawei MateBook X weighs only 2.30 pounds.
On the other side, its main competitor comes with a 12-inch screen and is approximately 8 ounces heavier. Moreover, the Razer Blade has a body that measures 0.53 inches thick.
Customers should also know that the Apple MacBook 2017 is the world’s lightest 13-inch laptop, weighing 2.03 pounds.
The new Huawei MateBook X comes with a very solid build. This device is made entirely from aluminum, which is a really good thing. As we know, many other competitors on the market come with bodies made from alloy or plastic.
Another great thing about this laptop is that it runs with no fans. This means that the new Huawei MateBook X is very quiet and it doesn’t get hot. Moving forward, we must say that the manufacturer added a 2K resolution, which means 2.160 x 1.440 pixels. The screen offers a very good quality and a bright and sharp image.
Unfortunately, the new Huawei MateBook X doesn’t come with a touchscreen feature. This is a sacrifice that the company had to make to achieve the form factor. If the touchscreen is an absolute must for customers, then they have to go to other competitors, for example the Dell XPS 13 Touch or the Blade Stealth.
However, as we know, a thinner body comes with a few sacrifices that the manufacturers have to make.
Another sacrifice is the connectivity chapter. Customers need to know that the new Huawei MateBook X comes only with USB-C ports.
So, customers will find two USB-C ports on the laptop. The first port is situated on the right side of the laptop and it is used for data transfer and dock connection, while the other one is on the left side and it is used for charging and data transfer.
The good thing is that the company includes a USB-C-to-USB cable inside the package to make the connection to drives and other peripherals.
