The HUAWEI MateBook 14s is the latest laptop under HUAWEI’s Seamless AI Life “1+8+N” ecosystem. The HUAWEI MateBook 14s is developed to be an ideal complement to HUAWEI smartphones, but it definitely has what it takes to be a great laptop in its own right. So, what are the five key features that the HUAWEI MateBook 14s offers, that you will wish you had in your current laptop? Well, here we go.

1. A sharp, vivid and fast display

HUAWEI’s premium laptops are renowned to tout awesome displays, and this is no different. The 14.2″ display here boasts of a sharp 2.5K 3:2 resolution, with a pixel density of 213ppi. This is nearly 36% more pixels per inch than you would get on an average 14″ FHD laptop, and thanks to the 3:2 aspect ratio, you actually have more viewing area than you would on an average laptop with a 16:9 display, letting you read more and scroll less.

The goodies doesn’t stop there though. You also get a 90Hz refresh rate with the HUAWEI MateBook 14s, giving you smoother visuals in everything that you do. Thanks to Intel’s Dynamic Refresh Rate Switching feature, the HUAWEI MateBook 14s can also intelligently drop the refresh rate down to 60Hz to save some energy, extending your battery life.

You also get auto brightness adjustment thanks to an ambient light sensor to offer a more comfortable viewing experience in any lighting conditions. On top of that, the screen here received TUV Rheinland’s Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution) and Flicker-Free certifications, ensuring that your eyes will be well protected from harmful blue light as well as flickers that may induce eye strain or even headaches.

This feature-packed display panel is framed by extremely narrow bezels, and HUAWEI calls this their FullView display. You get a whopping 90% screen-to-body ratio with the HUAWEI MateBook 14s, which means that it takes up a smaller footprint, while offering you more display area to work with. While the bezels are narrow, HUAWEI still managed to cram in a 720p IR camera for Windows Hello biometrics security and also video calls. Oh and did we mention that the display supports 10-point multitouch for a more intuitive working experience as well?

2. 11th Gen Intel Core H35 processors for the perfect balance of performance and efficiency

You can be up to five meters away from the laptop, and yet the microphones will be able to pick up your voice, allowing you to be heard when having a conference call.
