Huawei MateBook X Laptop Review, Specs And Prices

Huawei gave us a Matebook X to test, but the company is not yet announcing how much this new slim laptop is going to cost in the US. the Matebook X has a look like a Macbook Pro running Windows 10. The 13-inch fanless notebook comes with Intel's latest-generation processor, a crazy-sharp 2K screen and a fancy power button that also has a fingerprint reader. It has the chic design and high-end trimmings that any premium laptop needs.

The MateBook X isn't cheap as you might think. Prices start at €1,299 for the base model, which comes with an Intel Core i5-7200U, 4GB of RAM and 256GB of PCIe SSD storage. That will probably be at a UK price of around £1,200 the 13-inch display offers a 3:2 aspect ratio at 2K resolution with a 4.4mm bezel (it is touchscreen compatible, however), storage comes in either 256GB or 512GB SSD options depending on which you desire.

Huawei also included a MateDock 2.0 USB-C dongle in the box in some markets, which offers a regular USB Type-A port, DVI, HDMI, and a second USB-C port for pass-through charging. Funny enough The tech that keeps the processor cool is really impressive and involves the use of 'state-changing' liquid gel segments inside the laptop. In this case when they heat up, they melt, distributing the heat they've absorbed later on when things have cooled down a little.
