A 2020 version of Huawei’s MateBook 14 will be hitting Malaysian shores very soon, with highlight features such as an AMD Ryzen 4000 series chipset, l.49KG light weight on a 15.9mm chassis.
This MateBook 14 2020 thin boi comes in both Ryzen 5-4600H or 7-4800H, complete with 16GB DDR4 RAM and 512GB of PCIe SSD storage.
It’s obviously a 14-inch IPS panel (it’s in the name), with a 2K (aspect ratio 3:2) resolution on both configurations, with the Ryzen 7 model having a touchscreen over the Ryzen 5 variant.
Special Features
- Like the other MateBooks, the power button is also a fingerprint sensor, a feature we adored since is initial release!
- The Huawei Share function uses NFC to quickly link a Huawei smartphone to your MateBook, enabling a multi-screen experience
- The webcam is still smartly placed under one of the function keys, and a quick press would bring it up for your immediate Zoom calls!
I/O Ports
A single USB Type-C port (PD enabled), powers the MateBook’s 56Whr battery pack, and is also able to transfer data back and forth. There are also two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, HDMI port, and a 3.5mm audio jack. You’ll get a 65W fast-charging power brick in the package, and Huawei boasts a full 11 hours of use on a single charge. For a 14-incher, I’d say it’s a decent number of ports with all things considered.
Pricing And Availability
The only info we have here is that it’s arriving to Malaysia really soon, and the price is still yet to be officially announced. Come back after awhile and you’ll probably stapling the price-tag on your forehead. Till then, this is an exciting ultra-portable by Huawei and we can’t wait for its full release!
