About this deal
Besides the uneven distribution, there are no noticeable issues, and the maximum surface temperatures in the stress test remain absolutely harmless at a maximum of around 43 °C (~109 °F). Huawei incorporates its PC Manager software, which is a hub for checking on driver updates, making power management settings, troubleshooting features like the fingerprint sensor and wireless connectivity (both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6), and for managing a phone connection.
Moreover, we were also expecting to see at least a simple keyboard backlight with a device like this. Another damp note is that, as is typical of Huawei’s notebooks, the webcam is a pop-up affair hidden below a fake key between F6 and F7. According to the spec sheet, the brightness is only 250 cd/m², but our review sample slightly exceeds that with an average of 280 cd/m².It’s a great experience to be able to review the latest devices and technologies and then compare them with each other.
With just a simple tap, your smartphone and Huawei MateBook will transform into “ONE” super device even without Internet connection. Ever since he got an Amiga A500+ for Christmas in 1991, he's loved using (and playing on) computers, and will talk endlessly about how The Secret of Monkey Island is the best game ever made. The 1,920 x 1,080 IPS screen tops out a maximum brightness of just 135cd/m² (which is very poor), with an sRGB coverage and volume of 55.From the gray aluminum design to the size and shape of the keyboard, you’d almost be forgiven for thinking this was an Apple device, if it wasn’t for Huawei’s branding and lack of Touch Bar.
