Is this the best laptop you'll never buy?

 

The Huawei MateBook 14 is a good lightweight workhorse, but continued political wrangling and availability issues mean it's hard to recommend right now.

Large, high definition display ; Slender design ; Good selection of ports

Battery life doesn’t compare well to other ultrabooks ; Windows won’t be officially supported for much longer

The Huawei Matebook 14 is more versatile and boasts better battery life than the higher-specced MateBook X Pro. Sadly, uncertainty clouding Huawei's future makes this hard to recommend for the time being.

Huawei MateBook D review

 

Huawei's first attempt at a laptop

Lots of connectivity options ; Large display

No backlit keyboard ; Heavy

The new MateBook D isn't the most exciting product in Huawei's first laptop range, but it may be suitable for your next computing device with a solidly built design and lots of impressive spec.

Huawei MateBook 14 initial review: Spreading Huawei's Windows wings

 

A tweak in design results in a neat, powerful and nicely designed Windows laptop

The overall design, the quality of the finish, keyboard and other contact points - as well as that funky pop-up camera - will keep winning Huawei fans in the laptop space.

Huawei MateBook D 14 W50F (Core i5-8250U, 8 GB, 256 GB) Laptop Review

 

Office or business? The Huawei MateBook D 14 W50F sits between both segments. The stylish case and plentiful security features point towards the laptop being an expensive business laptop. However, Huawei preinstalls Windows 10 Home and has equipped the...

solid, premium case ; relatively compact ; good security features ; well-calibrated display ; quiet ; listenable speakers ; energy-efficient ; long battery life

meagre port selection ; the keyboard has too shallow a stroke for our liking ; below par contrast ratio and maximum brightness ; low colour-space coverage ; poor viewing angles for an IPS display ; comparatively slow SSD ; fan occasionally gets...

We decided to classify the Huawei MateBook D 14 W50F as a premium office notebook in the end, although this has no bearing on its rating. The W50F has a compact and well-built case with decent security features. However, we are not huge fans of its...

Huawei MateBook D 53010BAJ (8250U, MX150) Laptop Review

 

Old book, new page. Huawei's all-aluminum 15.6-inch MateBook D gets Kaby Lake-R hardware and GeForce MX150 graphics. How does the multimedia notebook compare to its otherwise identical predecessor and did Huawei do enough to differentiate the MateBook...

all-aluminum chassis ; high quality construction ; non-glare IPS display ; decent battery life ; SSD + HDD ; good value

noticeable GPU throttling under load ; runs hot ; no backlit keyboard ; poor gamut- ; no USB-C port, single video-out

Save for the updated hardware, the new MateBook D 53010BAJ is still the same 15.6-inch, all-aluminum mainstream multimedia notebook Huawei introduced last year. For the given price point, the chassis is very well designed, sturdy and pleasing to look...
