Huawei launches the MateBook X Pro 2020 in Australia

Larking Huang, Managing Director of Huawei Consumer Business in Australia: “The proliferation of smart technology has fundamentally changed the way we live, with everyday Aussies now demanding seamless connectivity, high performance and intelligence from their devices. The all-new HUAWEI MateBook X Pro delivers on this, epitomising Huawei’s signature design and craftsmanship in a high-performance, powerful solution. The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro is our most powerful, portable and intelligent all-purpose device yet, and we’re excited to bring that to the hands of our Australian customers.”

The Breath-taking Ultra FullView Experience

The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro leverages leading industrial design capabilities to provide an unparalleled user experience thanks to the Ultra FullView display. The device features a 13.9-inch LTPS panel and supports up to a 3K resolution (3000×2000) to help bring content to life and provide a more immersive entertainment experience than ever before. Additionally, the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro supports 10-point multi-touch and Fingers Gesture Screenshot[2] to deliver a more intuitive interface.

At just 14.6mm thick, the new HUAWEI MateBook X Pro is ultra-light-weight and portable, perfect for Australians who value mobility and quality performance. Finished with exquisite craftmanship for a smooth, sleek finish, the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro is available in Space Grey.

Ultimate flagship performance to drive maximum productivity

The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro embodies the latest notebook innovation to deliver uncompromised performance across multiple usages scenarios. Equipped with the 10th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-10510U and NVIDIA^® GeForce^® MX250 running on 2GB GDDR5, the new HUAWEI MateBook X Pro ensures a smooth experience – in graphic and video editing, to gaming and multimedia content consumption.

For an exceptional sound experience anywhere, the HUAWEI MateBook X Pro features quad speakers and is equipped with a massive 56Wh[3] battery along with Huawei’s proprietary power-saving modes, so users can enjoy all-day battery life. The 65 W Type-C portable adapter not only charges your laptop but can support HUAWEI SuperCharge for certain phones^[4].

The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro houses HUAWEI Shark Fin 2.0 for intelligent and efficient cooling, along with smart filtering technology that provides real-time system temperature monitoring, giving the notebook a smoother fan curve for quieter operations.

For users always on the go, the new HUAWEI MateBook X Pro supports fast Wi-Fi, for better signal reception and stable connectivity, along with Bluetooth 5.0 for quicker data transmission speeds, wider signal coverage and stronger broadcasting capabilities. This means the new notebook can be connected from a longer distance, with more stable signals.

All-Scenario Intelligent Interconnectivity: introducing Huawei Share

Huawei is helping drive a more intelligent, efficient, and connected world through innovations such as Huawei Multi-screen Collaboration, which enables a more seamless connection between user’s laptop and smartphone.

With the new HUAWEI MateBook X Pro users can easily transfer photos and documents, share screen recordings and use clipboard functions between both devices. Additionally, laptop accessories such as the keyboard, camera, microphone and mouse can be used as peripherals of your smartphone, providing a rounded and more convenient user experience.

The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro also comes equipped with first-in-industry technologies including Fingerprint Power Button to allow users to quickly authenticate their identity on power up and a recessed camera to protect privacy while maximising the display area.

Expanding capabilities with the Huawei MateBook 13 and MateBook D Series

Huawei has also announced the newly upgraded MateBook 13 is now available in Australia. Featuring Huawei’s signature light-weight design and FullView display, the 13-inch MateBook 13 offers high-performance capabilities alongside Multi-screen Collaboration for an all-round intelligent user experience.
