Matebook 16: Huawei surprises with its new laptop
Although Huawei is known for launching smartphones, it seems that little by little it is entering the world of laptops, now with the Matebook 16. The intention was to make a computer that had the necessary power for any activity. And they have succeeded.
It is, mainly, an ultrabook that has everything necessary to be considered one of the best laptops of 2022. From its screen, where it innovates by being the first of the brand with 16 inches, to its powerful battery. This laptop has it all.
Matebook 16: features and what you should know
On this occasion, Huawei presents us with several new features, which go beyond the huge screen it has. It consists of an excellent design, which enjoys great elegance. In addition, its processor is one of the best on the market, so performance will be guaranteed.
The first thing is your screen
As we have been commenting, the novelty is that Huawei has decided that the Matebook 16 is the first with a 16-inch screen. At what cost? Well, they have had to greatly reduce the size of the frames and bezels.
For its operation, we have an IPS type panel, in charge of covering 100% of the sRGB color trace. This is a very useful feature, especially for those who use their laptops to work with photo editing.
Also, it is complemented by a screen ratio of 3:2, being the ideal ratio for productivity to increase.
For image quality, we have a resolution that reaches 2.5 k, since specifically it is 2520 x 1680. In addition, it also has 189 dpi.
It has a TÜV Rheinland certification
Huawei continues to score points in innovation, as the Matebook 16 is the first laptop in the world to be Rheinland certified. What's that? It is the one that confirms the ability of the screen to show realistic color tones.
It is an effect that can be appreciated when consuming audiovisual content, whether it is movies or series, or even playing a video game. It is complemented, in turn, by a reduction in blue light levels, as well as the elimination of screen flicker.
As a result, a much more pleasant experience is obtained, especially in dark environments or where there is a notable absence of light.
Plenty of power for any activity
The brain in charge of processing all the activities carried out in the Matebook 16 is an AMD Ryzen 5000, equipped with 8 cores and 16 threads. It is a commitment of the brand to opt for this processor company that is growing much more every day.
Indeed, the AMD Ryzen 5000 processor promises to have the necessary power to run any program for editing or programming. In this way, the Huawei laptop is presented as the best option for people who are dedicated to this type of activity.
Even, it is also defended for the reproduction of video games or any type of multimedia content, without presenting any type of difficulty in the process.
All this is complemented by a graphics section led by an AMD Radeon, followed by a 16 GB dual-channel DDR4 RAM. Regarding storage, you will have plenty thanks to a 512 GB NVMe PCIe SSD.
level cooling
To counteract the heat generated by the processor, so that performance is not affected, they incorporate a Shark Fin technology cooling system. It is called that because it has the shape of a shark fin, accompanied by a double blade.
Everything, with the aim of making heat removal much more efficient and, at the same time, silent. As a result, we have a notebook that is capable of working with a high level of fluidity, without even heating up or producing noise in demanding activities.
Although it is not a gaming laptop as such, with the cooling technology it allows you to hold your own in graphically demanding games.
In that sense, they implement a "Game Mode" that is responsible for squeezing the most out of the hardware, in order to offer better performance in any title.
Elegant and functional design
Despite the large size of their screen, they know how to balance both weight and thickness, resulting in 1.99 kilos and 17.8 mm respectively. That is, it is a laptop that can be carried without problems.
On the other hand, they incorporate a smooth ceramic matte finish, aided by a high-precision sandblasting method.
In the end, you get a notebook that leaves no trace of fingerprints, capable of catching the eyes of customers with its great elegance.
As for the connectivity of external elements, they do not fall short, since first they integrate two USB-C ports, which are compatible for data port, charging and screen.
On the other hand, they also have 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1, an HDMI port, as well as a 2-in-1 adapter that is used for headphones and a microphone with a 3.5 mm input.
Also, they integrate a fingerprint reader in the same on/off button, with which they seek to provide greater security and comfort.
The camera is a section that stands out, especially for how it is integrated into the design of the Matebook 16. In effect, it works like a button, thus turning it into a retractable lens that is removed when it is to be used, and stored when not.
In this way, you are guaranteed security and privacy in any situation of data theft. However, the negative part is that it can become a problem when squaring the shot.
Autonomy
Both the level of processing and high-quality hardware equipment require energy that is consistent with your demand.
In this sense, Huawei implements an 84 Wh battery, which according to themselves is capable of withstanding a whole day of work. That is, at least 8 hours of continuous use.
Next, we have a 135W power adapter, bringing with it the ability to charge the laptop quickly.
Integration with other devices in the Huawei ecosystem
One of the functions that the Matebook 16 implements is a function called “Super Device”. In essence, it is the ability of the computer to link with other terminals of the brand.
In other words, you will be able to connect either your smartphone, tablet or monitor to the laptop, so that they all work as one. Thus, a much more efficient work and performance is achieved, due to the interconnection of the devices.
The only thing against this function is that it is only suitable for Huawei devices, so if you have other brands, it will not be compatible.
