- What's up, guys?
Saf here on SuperSafTV
and I've literally just got back from MWC.
I haven't slept.
I'm so tired.
But, Huawei gave me the Matebook Pro X.
Matebook X Pro.
Let's get it unboxed, right?
I want to check it out before I go to sleep,
I can sleep later.
Sleep is not important.
It is important.
But anyway, let's get this unboxed.
Right, so there's a little lever here
that I can open.
Hm, okay, nice and easy.
Oh, that's quite cool.
Rather than the whole top coming off,
it's like a nice little design.
Huawei Matebook X Pro, Huawei logo,
Dolby Atmos sound system, Intel inside.
Ooh, I like that, I like that.
Did you guys see that?
When you open up the box
it kind of lifts the laptop a little higher,
so it's easier to take out.
Nice design.
That's very light, we'll put that
to the side for a second,
to see what else we get inside the box.
So, as well as the Matebook X Pro,
you do get a 65-Watt charger,
as well as a USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable.
Now, your version might also come
with some paperwork and a few other bits,
but I've got a very, very early unit.
So, just do bear that in mind.
Alright, there's some plastic,
which we can take off.
Ooh.
Nice.
Now, in terms of the actual design,
it's not really changed, compared to the previous model.
We've got the same diamond-cut edges
and the sand blasting, all of that good stuff.
But what has changed is the Huawei logo.
So, before, we had the full Huawei logo
with that pattern thing,
but now it just says Huawei.
Looks a lot cleaner, I do like it.
At the bottom, we've got some grips.
There's a Windows sticker,
as well as an Nvidia GeForce sticker.
And there's also a sticker saying Not For Sale.
What, I can't sell this?
What?
I'm joking, I'm joking, I'm not going to sell it.
Now, it's only around 14.6 millimeters thin
and around 1.33 kg, which is pretty decent.
Anyway, let's go ahead and open this up.
So, I'm going to try the one thumb test.
Eh...
Okay.
Just about, let's try it again.
Nah, it doesn't.
Doesn't pass the one thumb opening up test,
whatever you call it.
Doesn't pass that, but hey.
Right, we've gone ahead and set this up,
and the first thing you'll notice
is this beautiful display.
It's a 13.9 inch LTPS display
and we've got minimal bezels,
so, it's roughly about a 91% screen-to-body ratio.
The resolution is 3,000 by 2,000,
so, it's three by two,
and that gives you roughly about 260 ppi.
So, things are really, really sharp.
sRGB 100% color gamut
and you've got up to 450 nits of brightness.
So, overall, a very, very nice display.
For the specs, you've got an
8th generation Intel Core i7-8565U processor.
There's also an i5 option available.
You can get up to the Nvidia GeForce MX250
with 2 gigabytes of GDDR5 RAM,
8 or 16 gigabytes of LPDDR3 RAM,
and you've got up to 1 terabytes of NVMe PCIe SSD storage.
Now, with those specs, you should be absolutely fine
for day-to-day usage, even some image,
and possibly some light video editing and gaming.
But, of course, if you do want to do
some more heavy gaming, then this isn't going to be ideal.
However, you do have two USB Type-C ports.
One of these is a Thunderbolt 3 port,
which means you can connect an external GPU, if needed,
and you can also connect an external 4K display.
There's also a 3.5mm jack
and, on the right-hand side,
you have a USB Type-A port.
Now, on the top right-hand side, above the keyboard,
there is the fingerprint power button 2.0,
and you should just be able
to press it when the device is off,
it should recognize your fingerprint
and let you straight in quite quickly.
So, let's test this out, it's switched off.
Now, there's going to be a timer here at the side,
which is going to tell you
exactly how long this is taking.
I'm not going to be able to see this timer
until after this is done,
so, just look out for that.
Okay, it's switched on, it's logging me in.
SuperSaf, boom.
That wasn't bad, that wasn't bad, pretty cool.
And there's a backlit keyboard,
which feels pretty good.
We've got a decent amount of travel
and we've got a decent-sized trackpad, as well.
Now, as with last time, you do have
a recessed, front-facing camera, which is 1 megapixels.
And it's not great having this lower-angle camera.
But the advantage is that it's going to be hidden away,
unless you actually want it active.
Of course, privacy is a big thing
and, you know, you might have
some malware on your computer,
somebody might be watching you
through your front-facing camera.
You might not know it.
You might be doing some personal, private stuff,
maybe looking at particular websites, particular videos,
not that I do any of that, of course.
But, yeah, I mean, you might be doing that
and somebody might be watching you.
With this, you know that it's not going to be watching you,
unless you physically pop it out.
Pretty cool.
Now, for the battery, you've got a 57.4 watt-hour battery
and Huawei have said that this
should last you between 12 to 14 hours.
Of course, usage varies, it's going to come down
to what you use your laptop for,
but it should give you some pretty decent battery life.
Now, for the audio, you do have quad digital mics
and quad speakers with Dolby Atmos.
They do sound pretty good to me
and then you've got a new feature on here
which is Huawei Share.
So, Huawei calling this OneHop, which should be able
to easily transfer files and text and things
from your smartphone to your laptop.
Now this is only going to work
with other Huawei smartphones.
So, if you've got another smartphone, it's not going to work.
You do need to be in the Huawei ecosystem.
And it's supposed to be pretty straightforward.
So, you can just go into the gallery, select a few images,
so, I'm just going to select a few here, okay.
Then you just need to place it
near the NFC sticker and it shoots it over.
And it should do this pretty quickly.
Taking a bit of time.
Now this might be because I've got
early, early hardware and software.
So, as this is updated,
from the demos that I saw, it was a lot quicker,
but this is taking quite a bit of time.
There was only around five images that I selected.
Still going.
Hm.
Yeah, this isn't a great demo.
Still going.
Okay, it's not supposed to take this long.
I know it's not supposed to take this long
because, from the demos, it was much quicker.
But, hey, it finally worked.
It's supposed to be much quicker,
again, this might be because I've got
some pre-release hardware and software.
So, it should be pretty quick.
And it's definitely a nice feature to have,
to share things between your smartphone and your tablet.
You could be copying text on your smartphone
and you can paste it here on the laptop.
And you can also screen record whatever's on your laptop,
onto your smartphone, up to one minute pretty easily
with transfer speeds of up to 30 megabits a second.
This should be faster, once again,
so, just do bear that in mind.
Now, this is a touch screen
and you've got some of Huawei's gestures,
so, you can swipe down with three fingers,
let's try this out.
Swipe down.
There you go, those are the different options
that you've got on here.
We can just draw a diagonal line
to take a screenshot of whatever we need.
Quite a cool feature.
Now, I haven't been given any pricing information, as yet.
As soon as I have that, I'll be dropping that
in the description below, so do look out for that.
I'll be leaving some links if you want to pick this up.
What do you guys think of the Huawei Matebook X Pro?
