Earlier today (5th January 2021), Huawei announced that it would be launching the MateBook 14 AMD edition in Singapore along with the MatePad T 10S. The laptop is a part of the company’s ultra portable notebook lineup and will be available for pre orders starting from the 9th to the 15th of January.

MateBook 14

The Huawei MateBook 14 is a light portable notebook that is designed to offer performance in a slim form factor. It features an AMD Ryzen 4000 series chipset under the hood and sports a 14 inch display. The display has a 2K resolution and is surrounded by thin bezels, which helps it achieve a 90 percent screen to body ratio. Its aspect ratio is 3:2, while the keyboard houses the recessed camera and a fingerprint power button for added security.

Notably, the Chinese tech giant is also offering TÜV Rheinland low blue light
certification that limits blue light emissions, for a more comfortable viewing experience. The AMD chipset is from the 4000H series, meaning, it offers notable performance along with Team Red’s integrated Radeon Graphics as well. For cooling, Huawei has outfitted the laptop with its Shark Fin 2.0 cooling fans for better thermal performance even during heavy loads.

A 56Whr battery powers the laptop, which can run up to 10 hours continuously while playing a 1080p video on a single full charge, as per official claims. The laptop only arrives in a single 16GB Ram + 512GB SSD storage variant and is priced at 1,298 Singapore Dollars (roughly 985 US Dollars). It will launch on 16th January 2021 and will be available for pre orders from 9th to the 15th of January.

Huawei announced a bunch of products today including the TalkBand B6, the MatePad 10.8, and new MateBook D laptops. Alongside these three, it also announced the Enjoy Tablet 2 and the Huawei Children’s Watch 4X.

Huawei Enjoy Tablet 2

The Huawei Enjoy Tablet 2 is a 10.1-inch tablet with a 1920 x 1200 resolution. It has pretty thick bezels but they are the same thickness all around. The tablet comes in two color variants – Champagne Gold and Dark Blue.

There is a Kirin 710A processor inside along with 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of storage. You get a MicroSD card slot too that allows you to add up to an extra 512GB of storage. Also, the tablet has a 5MP f/2.2 camera on the back and a 2MP f/2.4 camera in front for video calls. It has stereo speakers tuned by Harman Kardon with Huawei Histen 6.1 surround sound.

The Enjoy Tablet 2 ships with EMUI 10.1 with features such as Parallel Vision that allows you to use an app in two different windows. An example is when using a chat app that also has support for video calls. You will be able to chat in one window while the video call interface occupies the second window. Parallel Vision lets you adjust the size of each window and also lets you flip their positions.

Another feature that EMUI 10.1 brings is real-time screen-sharing during video calls. This allows others to see what is on your screen rather and can come in handy for students who are studying and need help.

The tablet has a 5100mAh battery and supports 10W charging via a USB-C port. It also has Bluetooth 5.1, dual-band Wi-Fi, and OTG support.

The Huawei Enjoy Tablet 2 is available in four versions on Vmall:

• Wi-Fi only 4GB + 64GB = ¥1599 (~$228)
• Wi-Fi only 4GB +128GB = ¥1799 (~$257)
• LTE 4GB + 64GB = ¥1799 (~$257)
• LTE 4GB + 128GB = ¥1999 (~$285)

The Champagne Gold variant is only available with Wi-Fi but the Dark Blue version is available in both Wi-Fi and LTE configurations. You can pre-order now ahead of its shipping date set for August.

It is important to state that the Huawei Enjoy Tablet 2 is actually the same device as the MatePad T10s that leaked earlier this month. The URL for the official page actually says MatePad T10s and not Enjoy Tablet 2.

Huawei Children’s Watch 4X

Huawei also announced a new smartwatch for kids. The Huawei Children’s Watch 4X brings new features, the key one being dual cameras.

There is a 5MP camera above the display for HD video calling while an 8MP f/2.0 camera is at the “back”. Huawei says this rear camera supports 4x digital zoom and has AI object recognition. It will not only identify an object but also bing up info about the object so that the child can learn. You can also use both cameras to take photos under the water as the watch is waterproof up to 50 meters.

Earlier this month, details and renders of a pair of budget Huawei tablet models appeared on the tech space. What is said to be the Matepad T10s has appeared on GeekBench database.

The Matepad T10s was leaked alongside the MatePad T10 but both models feature the same processor and design with the screen size and resolution differentiating the two models. The Huawei model spotted on Geekbench 4 bears the model number AGS3-AL09HN and is believed to be the MatePad T10s. It is powered by an octa-core Hisilicon Kirin 710A chipset with a base frequency of 1.70GHz. The processor is paired with 4GB of RAM on the test model. The device will run on Android 10 operating system which will definitely have the EMUI 10 overlay on top. 

The previous leak tips the Matepad T10 to feature a 9.7-inch display with a 1280 x 800pixel resolution and a pixel density of 156ppi. On the other hand, the MatePad T10s features a larger 10.1-inch display with a resolution of 1920 x 1200px and a pixel density of 220ppi. The base model will come with 2GB of RAM and 16GB /32GB storage which can be expanded up to 512GB with microSD card.

The tablets will also pack a 5,100mAh battery as well as a 5-megapixel primary lens and a 2-megapixel selfie shooter.
