Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) review: a day-to-day laptop with style and substance

The Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) performed well in most areas, making it a great laptop for working and streaming

Large, clear display ; Beautiful design ; Good in-built speakers

Unflattering webcam angle ; Still no 4K resolution ; Not a laptop for gaming

The Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) maintains the stylish design and stunning display offered by its predecessors while making some much-needed improvements, packing a more powerful GPU, faster CPU and an improved trackpad. It’s nothing revolutionary but...

Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) review: Super sharp shooter

Suave design and style lead the way in this largely super laptop, but it ain't half expensive!

Great build quality ; Sharp screen ; Solid speakers

Intimidating cost ; Somewhat shallow keyboard ; Nasty webcam position

This laptop has a limited appeal, mostly because there's only an ultra-high-end spec version in the UK, which costs a packet. However, Huawei does a good job of justifying that cost, with great build quality, a sharp and bright screen, and an ambitious...

Huawei MateBook X Pro 2021 review

The Huawei MateBook X Pro still looks great in its 2021 iteration, but below-par battery and an awkward webcam hold it back from greatness.

11th-gen Intel chips ; Slick design ; Excellent trackpad

Below-average battery life ; No discrete GPU option ; Keyboard webcam angle sucks

In the fourth year of the same design the MateBook X Pro is beginning to feel a little long in the tooth, most notably in that poor webcam, and below-par battery life doesn't help matters. The design does still feel surprisingly slick though, and the...

Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) review: A fine laptop but it needs an overhaul

The latest Intel chips keep Huawei's flagship laptop in the hunt for class honours, but the competition is fierce and flaws remain

Improved performance ; Longer battery life ; Fine keyboard

Webcam positioning is terrible ; Same design for fourth year in a row

The MateBook X Pro story is simple. An already very good ultraportable has just got a little better thanks to the latest Intel silicon.

Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) Review

Sleek, stylish chassis ; Gorgeous almost-4K screen ; Innovative haptic touchpad ; USB Type-A port ; Distinctive emerald green color option

Short battery life ; Awkward webcam placement ; Huawei software requires mobile device for full functionality ; Limited US availability

Although it’s subtly enhanced for 2021 and still as slick as ever, the Huawei MateBook X Pro falls short given its limited availability, short battery life, and awkward webcam placement.

Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) Review: A Sleek and Vibrant Notebook

As a laptop vendor, Huawei is entering its fourth year. Relying on x86 silicon and a GPU here and there, one thing Huawei does well is the quality of the design. The company has transferred the knowhow developed over a decade of smartphones into...

Huawei MateBook X Pro (2021) review

The MateBook X Pro is a decent laptop but fails at being a MacBook alternative

Bright, 3:2 display ; Solid keyboard and touchpad ; Long battery life ; Fast SSD

Middling performance ; Scant on ports ; Wonky webcam placement ; Expensive

The Huawei MateBook X Pro 2021 offers a bright 3:2 display and long battery life, but its lackluster performance and inflated price make it hard to love.
