At the centre of the Huawei lineup is the MateBook line, which offers thin, stylish and fairly powerful ultrabooks and laptops with a reasonable balance between price, performance and functionality. Unlike other Huawei laptop families with clearly limited features, MateBook devices do not have any dominant idea that frees their hands for experimentation.


For example, it was in the MateBook that the company first tested a biometric sensor built into the power button with a separate security chip. At the same time, we first saw the Huawei Share wireless communication system for two-way communication between a laptop and a smartphone. Subsequently, these things became proprietary features of other laptops of the company. In addition, Huawei engineers are experimenting with cooling systems, trying out fans with unusual blades, semi-passive heatsinks, and some kind of PWM control that independently monitors the temperature of the components and adjusts the speed of the blades.

But if you try to highlight some feature of the MateBook series, then, perhaps, it will be the screens. While most popular mid-range and upper-midrange laptops and ultrabooks typically come with 1080p 16:9 aspect ratio IPS displays, Huawei is not shy about playing with form and content, preferring screens with custom aspect ratios and resolutions. For example, the classic 15 inches, but with a resolution of 2160 × 1440p and 3: 2 aspect ratio. or a 16-inch 2.5K screen with enhanced colour reproduction and advanced eye protection technologies. Quality is often confirmed by TÜV Rheinland Colour Accuracy and Quick Stability certificates.
