Huawei MateBook X Pro Signature Edition Thin & Light Laptop, 13.9" 3K Touch, 8th Gen i5-8250U, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, 3:2 Aspect ratio, Office 365 Personal Included, Mystic Silver - Mach-W19B

It took only 3 days to reach Singapore. This laptop is definitely one of the best valued ultra portable in the market. Though Huawei has updated the Matebook X Pro in 2019 with new exterior design, the internal is still pretty much the same as 2018 model. Besides, it seems that Huawei has constantly adjusting their production according to the users feedback and review. My unit was produced in early 2019, the SSD has only one partition, no more touchpad rattle, decent battery life and gorgeous 3:2 display. Everything has been working fine so far. 16GB ram is sufficient enough for me to multitask with Chrome tabs, office, YouTube, OBS Studio operating simultaneously at the background. The only minor issue with the Matebook X Pro is the thermal design. It runs hot, (pretty hot to the touch IMO) during heavy workload or when system is upgrading. So far, I am very satisfied with the notebook. I think this is much worthy than Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 and MacBook Air 2018. The chin camera is never an big issue for me because I never use the camera that often.

Ive only had it for less than a day. The screen is very nice; the keyboard reminds me of a Mac keyboard, which I dont care for that much, but feels OK. I prefer keyboard with more travel such as the Lenovos. The trackpad has a little of the "looseness" that others have mentioned but it doesnt bother me so much. The SSD is a Toshiba and tests at 1900Mbs at faster read speed with CrystalDiskMark. I was ready to return it if it didnt seem like a real quality device but I think its a keeper. The screen crispness makes up for the rather small text size (Im an old guy). I dont expect to use it as a work device but more of an entertainment device. Its a snappy performer and all I really need. Ill post an update later if I change my mind. BTW, the 3:2 screen was a swaying factor for me. Update - sent it back As much as I loved many features of the device; I sent it back. It just wasnt the right device for me. If it had a Lenovo keyboard, I would have kept it. But , because it really is a Macbook clone, it has a Mac-like keyboard, which I dont care for at all. I also had an unfortunate incident with Huawei support where I was told to reinstall/restore Windows to solve a problem with not being able to boot from a flash drive. Mind you, I was trying to backup my laptop with the USB rescue media, so reinstalling Windows kinda defeats the purpose of taking a backup, now doesnt it? I will ending up spending considerably more $$ for a Lenovo T/P/or X series machine, but thats the kind of machine I want to be on anyway. You get what you pay for.
