Review Huawei MateBook X Pro 2020

The 2020 MateBook X Pro is truly a flagship laptop. It will come in two versions including the 10th generation i5 or i7 chip, 16GB of RAM, a striking design that comes with a great display.

Core i7 versions, 1TB hard drive capacity will cost around $ 1999, core i5 versions, 500GB hard drive capacities will cost $ 1500.

Design MateBook X Pro

The Emerald Green color case, Huawei MateBook X Pro 2020 easily becomes one of the most beautifully designed laptops today. The edges are polished, sparkling under the light, the sensitive trackpad makes users feel the amount of money they spend.

Weighing in at just 1.3kg, you can easily drop the MateBook X Pro 2020 and move around without feeling heavy.

Huawei impresses with the number of ports available on its laptop devices, including 2 USB-C ports (both can be used to charge the machine and one port supports Thunderbolt 3), 1 traditional USB 3.0 port. and 1 3.5mm headphone jack.

Keyboard and trackpad of MateBook X Pro 2020

Like all other MateBook products, both the keyboard and trackpad are carefully designed and detailed. Light keyboards are an integral part of high-end laptops. Just enough space between keys, relatively deep key stroke helps you experience typing with a certain bounce, minimizing the possibility of mistyping.

Just above the keyboard is a fingerprint sensor, for Windows Hello. This is a very quick way to open the device although not everyone likes this security method.

Hidden between the row of function keys is a 1MP webcam that can turn out, this is probably the biggest drawback on this laptop. Hiding the camera can add a bit of privacy. However, the cam placement there is not very ideal and especially the quality of the camera is quite bad, because with a valuable machine like this, users deserve every best feature.

On the other hand, the trackpad is really hegemony. Not only is it square and large like the MacBook Pro series, it is very sensitive and can be used instead of a mouse without any problems.

The display of MateBook X Pro

The MateBook X Pro 2020 has a 13.9-inch display. Unlike most competitors in the market, the device's screen has a 3: 2 frame, making it more square compared to 16: 9 or 16:10 screens. This idea is for surfing the web or you want the text to be displayed longer. Once familiar with the use of this frame, the other screens seem to be limited. However, for those who like to watch movies, this is not the optimal choice. The two traditional black horizontal bars on the movies will be larger, causing you to lose focus quite a lot.

The screen of the MateBook X Pro is crisp, the bezels are thin and touch-sensitive. The colors displayed on the device are bright and vivid, if seen with the naked eye will see no difference compared to the MacBook Pro. However, the ability to use in large lighting conditions is not as good as other high-end laptop products.

Performance of MateBook X Pro 2020

The MateBook X Pro 2020 is ranked in the flagship category thanks to its powerful internal performance. The i7 version supports Nvidia MX250 GPU, so whether it does heavy tasks or plays a lot of big games, it runs smoothly.

Although the benchmark score of the device is very good but in fact its performance is much better. Of course, MateBook X Pro has no problem with normal tasks. Even when opening up to 30 Chrome tabs at the same time, there was no lag, shock, or fan noise. Heavy programs like Lightroom, Photoshop, Steam . also run very smoothly on this device.

Speakers are located next to the keyboard. It is not comparable with the sound quality as on Apple products but still gives good quality when listening to music and watching movies. At least it does its job well.

Battery life of MateBook X Pro 2020

In most high-end laptops using the i7 chip, the battery life of the MateBook X Pro 2020 is definitely not the top device. Actually, the battery on the device is not so bad, but if you want to work all day on the machine without having to charge, perhaps MateBook will be difficult to meet your needs.

Depending on your usage settings on the device, the device can use about 5-6 hours after each charge. This includes opening Chrome with multiple tabs, Photoshop and Slack running in the background, sometimes adding Spotify. In terms of watching videos, the MateBook X Pro can play 1080p videos continuously for about 8:30 minutes before power down.

Why should you buy Huawei MateBook X Pro 2020?

The latest version of MateBook X Pro is a great laptop. This is a beautifully designed machine, including a lot of thorough design for the user. The screen and trackpad both deserve to stand on the flagship product line in the market.
