Recently launched in the Vietnamese market, the Matebook 14 Laptop is making waves among tech enthusiasts. Despite boasting an edge-to-edge screen design that's leading the trend and packed with advanced technology, the Huawei Matebook 14 is priced at around 22 million dong. Let's find out if this laptop truly lives up to its price tag.
Rugged and Powerful Full Metal Exterior
At first glance, the Matebook 14 appears quite simple and compact yet remarkably elegant. Each edge of the device is polished with a dazzling diamond-cut finish, adding to its visual appeal. Crafted from 5252 aluminum alloy, the laptop has undergone over 40 stages of oxidation technology, significantly enhancing its lifespan, shock resistance, and corrosion resistance. Despite being only 15.9mm thin and weighing 1.49kg, the Matebook 14 still provides a sturdy feel in hand.
Ultra-Thin Bezel 4-Sided 3:2 Aspect Ratio Display
Huawei Matebook 14 continues to captivate users with its ultra-thin bezel design – a rarity in the 20-million-dong laptop segment. According to Huawei, this is the Full View screen design with slim bezels on all four sides, measuring only 4.9mm on the sides and top. This achieves a screen-to-body ratio of 90%.
The laptop also boasts the ability to reproduce sharp, smooth images with a standard 2K resolution of 2160 x 1440 pixels. While most laptops in the same price range only offer Full HD, the 3:2 screen ratio allows for more vertical content display, providing convenience for browsing, spreadsheets, or documents. The device also achieves 100% sRGB color coverage, a maximum brightness of 300 nits, and is certified low blue light by TÜV Rheinland.
Fast and responsive processing speed, smooth and cool operation
In Vietnam, the Matebook 14 laptop is only distributed in a single configuration. Specifically, the device is equipped with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 11th gen CPU, integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics card, 8GB DDR4 2667MHz RAM, and a 512GB NVMe PCIe SSD. Particularly, users can maximize performance by simply pressing the Fn + P key combination to activate Performance Mode.
Supports many modern features
Huawei Matebook 14 also impresses with many enticing features. Notably, the device features a highly accurate fingerprint sensor, a webcam hidden beneath the keyboard, and the Huawei Share feature, which brings many conveniences to Huawei smartphone users. With this feature, you simply need to lightly touch the back of your Huawei phone on the Matebook 14's touchpad and confirm on both devices to successfully connect.
