Introducing, Huawei’s slew of new products that was just announced. Actually, we were already using the new MateBook X Pro for a few days now. Within this announcement, we cover a multitude of different categories of tech products – laptops, tablets, and even a new smart speaker.
Laptops
Starting with the new MateBook X Pro, Huawei has updated its existing lineup of premium laptop with the latest 10th Gen Intel Core i7-10510U processor, coupled with an NVIDIA GeForce MX250 graphics with 2GB of GDDR5 VRAM. Of course, this means that the laptop is a very capable ultrabook.
It is also equipped with a 13.9-inch screen that has an unusual 3:2 aspect ratio with 3000×2000 resolution that is touch-capable. With a massive 91% screen-to-body ratio, the new MateBook X Pro is here to be your everyday companion. For us Malaysians, it is available in Space Grey and Emerald Green colors, with the latter arriving soon in limited quantities.
Huawei is also bringing in the MateBook 13 which has a 10th Gen Intel Core processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 2K touchscreen with 88% screen-to-body ratio. It is also a slim laptop that weighs in at 1.3kg.
For the budget options, Huawei is now offering the MateBook D 14 too! We have previously reviewed the larger MateBook D 15 here, which I absolutely love. Now, the MateBook D 14 is smaller in size but still packs quite a big punch.
The main difference here – other than the size – is the SoC used. The MateBook D 14 packs an AMD Ryzen 5 3500U CPU with Radeon Vega 8 Graphics (which was what the MateBook D 15 used to have) while the Huawei MateBook D 15 now gets an upgrade to the new Ryzen 7 3700U with Radeon RX Vega 10 Graphics.

Also, purchases of the MateBook X Pro will be eligible to get a bunch of free gifts – including the Huawei Sound X.
Huawei MatePad
Like what I said in the MatePad Pro review – that tablet is not meant for everyone, especially since if you don’t need the “professional” setup.
The new MatePad has this list of specs:
- 10.4-inch 2K resolution
- Kirin 810 chipset
- 4GB RAM
- 64GB internal storage
- 7,250mAh battery
- AOSP with EMUI 10
If you just want a tablet for media consumption, the new Huawei MatePad is actually quite good. It still has a pretty big screen with high resolution to watch shows – especially since the EMUI 10.1 update now has Widevine DRM to watch Netflix in HD, as we showed it here.
The Huawei MatePad is available at RM1,399 with a free flip cover, 3 months of Huawei Video Premium, and 15GB of Huawei Mobile Cloud for 12 months too.
Huawei MatePad T
Diving down into the entry-level tablets, the new MatePad T is looking to be rather interesting. Let’s take a look at the specs first:
- 8-inch IPS LCD screen
- 1280×800 pixels in resolution
- MediaTek MT8768 chipset
- 2GB RAM
- 32GB storage
- 5,100mAh battery
- AOSP with EMUI 10
If you’re looking for an affordable tablet – then the MatePad T might be the one for you. It is priced at only RM559 and comes with 3 months of Huawei Video Premium and 15GB of Huawei Mobile Cloud for 12 months too.
Huawei Sound X
This new speaker is made in collaboration with the French audio company, Devialet. This is a Bluetooth speaker with dual-subwoofers. It claims that this speaker can hit frequencies as low as 40Hz too.
Around the Huawei Sound X is 6 full-range tweeters, creating an immersive 360° surround sound. The speaker also has some smart features – like muting by simply covering the top of the speaker.
The Huawei Sound X will be available at the price of RM1,299.
