Huawei's ultrabook laptops have always been a favorite among tech enthusiasts worldwide. Now, with the Matebook X Pro 2024, Huawei once again cements its status, power, and technological prowess in this new generation ultrabook.
Unveiling the Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024
The Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024, the latest ultra-slim ultrabook from Huawei, has garnered significant attention from reviewers globally. This product epitomizes Huawei's technological brilliance, featuring substantial upgrades in both hardware and software, with integrated AI compared to its 2023 predecessor.
The MacBook Air Rival
Dubbed the "MacBook Air Killer" for its near-perfect performance, let's dive into the experience of the premium Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024 in this detailed review.
Design
Unboxing the Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024 reveals a 65W/90W charger, a dual Type-C charging cable, a Type-C to USB-A dongle, and a user manual. Notably, the 2024 edition includes a wired earphone with a Type-C jack.
This year's Huawei Matebook X Pro comes in Morandi Blue, reminiscent of the clear blue sky with a matte finish. This new ultrabook generation exudes a bold yet minimalist elegance, adding to its inherent allure.
Huawei employs Micro Arc oxidation technology, making the entire surface resistant to liquids and stains. Sweat and fingerprints are virtually non-existent on the surface of the Matebook X Pro. The magnesium alloy frame ensures a lightweight yet durable build, even in the event of impacts.
Maintaining the 14.2-inch size of its 2023 predecessor, the significant hardware change in the Matebook X Pro 2024 lies in its reduced weight. From nearly 1.5kg, it now weighs only 980g. The thickness is also slimmed down by 2mm, from 15.5mm to just 13.5mm, making it lighter than the Macbook Air M3.
The Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024's display features uniformly thin bezels with softly rounded corners, giving a modern and premium feel, akin to viewing an iPad screen.
The keyboard on the Matebook X Pro 2024 is compact and well-balanced, with no wasted space. This Chiclet keyboard offers a delightful typing experience with a 1.5mm key travel. The circular power button, integrated with a fingerprint sensor, blends seamlessly into the flat surface.
In addition to the neatly designed keyboard, the Matebook X Pro 2024 boasts a spacious trackpad extending to the edges of the device. This trackpad's sensitivity and smoothness are exceptional, reminiscent of Apple's Magic Trackpad.
Flanking the keyboard are two speaker arrays, each featuring three Smart Audio Mixer drivers, delivering harmonious sound throughout the space. The bass is impressive, the soundstage is excellent, and the mid-high range is well-balanced. Notably, the device only has two top speaker arrays, with no additional speakers on the bottom.
The bottom panel design is simple, with four round anti-slip pads and softly curved edges, evoking a familiar experience like using an Apple MacBook.
Connectivity
The 2024 Matebook X Pro model comes equipped exclusively with Type-C ports. There are two Thunderbolt 4 ports on the left side and one USB-C port on the right, accompanied by a webcam on/off switch. The 3.5mm audio jack from the 2023 version is omitted, which likely explains the inclusion of a Type-C wired earphone in the package.
Despite the exclusive use of Type-C ports, Huawei provides a Type-C to USB-A dongle for convenient use with USB devices. Additional hubs can be purchased to meet more extensive connectivity needs.
Display
The Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024 features a 14.2-inch OLED touchscreen with near-4K resolution (3120 x 2080 pixels, 264 ppi) and a maximum brightness of up to 1000 nits. The display also boasts a remarkable 120Hz refresh rate, along with 100% sRGB, AdobeRGB, and DCI-P3 coverage for high-end media tasks.
Compared to the 2023 version, which also had a 3.1K resolution screen but used LTPS LCD, had a 90Hz refresh rate, and only 500 nits brightness, the 2024 model makes significant leaps in display quality, providing a more visually appealing experience. Editing photos, videos, and film rendering are now smoother than ever.
With brightness up to 1000 nits and excellent image quality, the Huawei Matebook X Pro 2024 can be used in any environment. Whether indoors, at a street café, in a park, or on the subway, its lightweight and sharp display makes it perfect for use anywhere.
