The MateBook X Pro 2024 is among a raft of new products launched for the global market on May 7 by Huawei. The high-performance and premium laptop is powered by Intel Meteor Lake processors and will be available in some selected markets outside China.

Features

The Huawei MateBook X Pro 2024 features a 3.2K touch-enabled OLED screen and an overall sleek design. It was released earlier this year in China and it is being marketed as a cheaper alternative to the Apple MacBook Air. The feature list of the model however points to a high-end laptop that possibly thumps the MacBook Air in several aspects. It has a touch-enabled 14.2-inch screen with the OLED panel having a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz. It has a peak brightness of 1,000 nits and delta E > 0.1.

The MateBook X Pro 2024 weighs less than 1kg (actually 980g) and comes in three color options namely black, white, and Morandi blue. It has a CNC-milled unibody chassis, the same as the MacBook Air.

The internal architecture utilizes a three-segment PCB design that frees more space for core components and cooling fans. The fans have been improved to deliver 22% more airflow and reduced noise, compared to earlier-generation products. The Intel Meteor Lake processor is another major talking point of the new laptop. These include the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H and the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H. The model also features the Intel Arc iGPU and it can be configured to have up to 32GB of memory and 2TB of storage.

The Huawei MateBook X Pro 2024 features a 1080p camera with a physical privacy shutter and Windows Hello functionality. It is equipped with a Thunderbolt 4.0 port (2x) and a single USB-C port. It supports WiFi 6E and Huawei says that even though the functionality may not be available at launch, it can be switched on via a software update. The laptop has a 72Wh battery that supports 90W charging via USB-C in some regions and 65W in others.

Huawei will release price and availability information on the model subsequently.
