HUAWEI announces new MateBook X Pro with latest 10th Gen Intel Core processors
HUAWEI has been gradually expanding their horizons beyond smartphones with their lineup of products which complement their smartphones, and they have just announced the new HUAWEI MateBook series. Leading the charge is the flagship HUAWEI MateBook X Pro, which is their top of the line ultraportable laptop.
HUAWEI MateBook X Pro
HUAWEI used machined aluminium for the entire chassis of the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro, thus allowing them to deliver a laptop that’s thin and light without compromising the rigidity of the laptop. In this compact design, the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro packs a 13.9″ 3K 3:2 LTPS display which offers an impressive 91% screen-to-body ratio, while also supporting touch input.
Under the hood lies the Intel Core i7-10510U and GeForce MX250 graphics for exceptional performance in its class. Last but not least, HUAWEI packed a quad speaker system into the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro to deliver an impressive audio experience unlike other laptops in this segment.

HUAWEI MateBook 13
The HUAWEI MateBook 13 takes most of the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro’s hardware and distills it to fit into an even more compact form factor. With options ranging from AMD Ryzen 5 3500U processors all the way up to the Intel Core i7-10510U, the HUAWEI MateBook 13 promises to be a lot easier on your wallet.
You get the same 3:2 aspect ratio and all-aluminium build as the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro, although the HUAWEI MateBook 13 sports a slightly smaller 13″ display that offers a 2K resolution and a whopping 88% screen-to-body ratio. The battery is also quite a bit smaller at 41.7 WHr. You can check out the various configurations available in Malaysia below:
