Background and Identification
The Huawei Matebook X Pro is a laptop designed and manufactured by Huawei as part of the Huawei MateBook laptop line. The Huawei Matebook X Pro has been compared to Apple's Macbook laptops in both design and interface. The X Pro laptop was released in 2018 but was only sold in China until the end of 2019.
The Huawei Matebook X Pro runs on a Windows 10 operating system (either Home or Pro), which is Microsoft's personal computer operating system. The Huawei Matebook X Pro is Huawei's first laptop to include a "FullView" design, which gives the laptop a screen to body ratio of 91%. The laptop includes a 13.9-inch LTPS (low-temperature polycrystalline silicon) display with a resolution of 3000 by 2000 pixels at 260 pixels per inch. It has a claimed viewing angle of 178 degrees and a maximum brightness of 450 nits.
In North America, the Huawei Matebook X Pro was released in two configurations. The base model uses an 8th-generation Intel Core i5-8250U processor with 256 GB of internal storage and 8 GB of RAM. The higher-end Matebook X Pro includes an 8th-generation Intel Core i7-8550U processor with 512 GB of internal storage and 16 GB of RAM.
A review of the Huawei Matebook X Pro from TechRadar praised the laptop's bright display, sensible design, terrific battery life, and strong all-around performance. However, the review also pointed out that the computer does not include an SD card slot and has a flawed webcam.
The Huawei Matebook X Pro laptop can be identified by the name "Huawei" engraved in the back of the laptop in capital letters. The model number of the computer can be found by searching in the device's settings and looking for an "About This Device" option.
