💻 Huawei’s new HarmonyOS-powered MateBook Pro has entered the laptop arena with sleek looks and bold ambitions – but does it deliver beyond aesthetics? We tested it firsthand to find out.
Born from Huawei’s push to reduce reliance on U.S. tech after trade restrictions, this lightweight (under 1kg!) metal-body laptop dazzles with an OLED screen and minimalist design that rivals Apple’s MacBooks. Priced at 7,999 yuan ($1,100), it’s clearly targeting style-conscious professionals 🚀.
But here’s the catch: While the hardware shines, early users report the Kirin chip’s performance lags behind competitors. Multitasking and heavy apps might test its limits – a reminder that breaking free from tech dependencies takes time.
Still, as Huawei expands HarmonyOS from smartphones to PCs, this release signals China’s growing ambition in homegrown operating systems. Will software optimization close the gap? Tech enthusiasts are watching closely 👀.
