A company as prolific as Huawei in the world of mobile phones is taking it more calmly on its way with laptops. A little over a year ago we saw them launch in this business with the MateBook, and why deny it, both by design and specifications, started with a very good foot.
Today we bring you what we can consider as a new step, more than a renewal, since we are not before big and powerful tablet to which we can put a keyboard: this is a laptop. It is called Huawei MateBook X and again the chosen operating system is Windows 10.

The first thing we have to know about the MateBook X is that it grows in screen size, it does so to be placed in the 13 inch – 12 inch the original Matebook. This does not affect the final size, since the screen frames are tiny: 88% of the front is screen and the format is 3:2.
The 13-inch screen also looks good, with a resolution of 2160×1440 pixels and Gorilla Glass protection. Huawei says its panel reproduces 100% in sRGB and the contrast reaches 1000:1.
