One of the most surprising products that many would not imagine finding in the Huawei catalog is the MateBook Pro X. The convertible is an incredible option to take into account that for many it surpasses Apple's MacBook Pro, so the manufacturer has followed that line and today presents the new MateBook 13.
Huawei MateBook 13: same idea with a better price
Basically what Huawei wants to achieve with this new MateBook 13 is to fill an existing gap between the almighty MateBook Pro X and MateBook D, offering an intermediate equipment with great features and a good price for those who are not looking for the most basic and the highest of the range, but maintaining an excellent design.
The similarity with its brothers is undeniable, since we will find some details such as the fingerprint reader placed next to the keyboard. Of course, the peculiar webcam of the MeteBook Pro X located in the lower bezel has been replaced by a more traditional one placed in the upper bezel of the screen.
Key features
In this way we find a team with a very good finish (without reaching that of the MateBook Pro X) that hides inside a Core i5-8265U or a Core i7-8565U processor depending on the version (both eighth generation), with 8 GB of RAM, 256/512 GB of storage and NVIDIA MX150 graphics. At 14,9 millimeters thick, the computer is thinner than a Macbook Air, but no less than the new Zenbook S13, a team that also has NVIDIA MX150.
On each side of the MateBook 13 we will have a USB C port, one of them, the right, for transfers and charging, while the left will be in charge of DisplayPort functions (in addition to transfers, of course). There will also be a headphone port, so relax, you will be able to continue connecting your favorite models.
Price and release date of the MateBook 13
Although Huawei It has not yet been pronounced at the European level, in the United States the manufacturer will begin to distribute its new equipment as of January 29. The model with Core i5 will be priced at $999, while the top of the range with Core i7 will go up to $1.299. We imagine that the prices in euros will be very close to a 1:1 conversion, so you can more or less get an idea of ​​how much this interesting Huawei laptop will cost.
