The Huawei MateBook is supposed to be the ideal 2-in-1 tablet, one that perfectly compliments your Huawei Mate 8 phone. It did just that with style at my MWC 2016 demo.
This is a 12-inch Windows 10 convertible inside an aluminum unibody that matches the Huawei phone down to the color choices with silver, space gray and gold. It feels like an iPad Pro running Microsoft software.
In fact, Huawei’s first Windows-powered device can turn into a Microsoft Surface-like tablet thanks to a keyboard case attachment that includes a solid-feeling glass trackpad and has an outside enveloped in classy leather.
Starting at $699 or €799 (about £500), it’s not your average inexpensive Huawei gadget, but the higher-end design mirrors the specs, so the focus here is more on performance for the value.
Design and specs
The Huawei MateBook is ultra-thin, measuring 6.9mm and weighing just 640g. Inside is a dual core Intel Core M processor that’s clocked at 3.1GHz.
Like the Huawei MediaPad 2, it feels more expensive than it actually is, and you’ll find higher end features like two speakers embeded in the top of the frame.
