Huawei is now well into the groove when it comes to pushing out yearly updates for the Huawei MateBook X Pro, and as you would expect, this year’s is the best edition yet. It’s a serious contender at the top-end of the market.

There’s no doubt that the Huawei MateBook X Pro is a fine-looking laptop. The 13.9-inch, 3000x2000 pixel LTPS LCD screen looks great, with very little in the way of bezels – although it sadly isn’t 4K. Colours on the screen are bright, details are sharp, and it’s a fantastic laptop for watching movies on. The 3:2 aspect ratio isn’t ideal for widescreen content of course, but we’d rather have it for the extra vertical space it gives to documents.
