If you can get this sense of balance. It can only be said to be wonderful.
This year was a year in which various things were irregular and flexible responses were required. I think there are many cases where people have shifted to a life centered on remote work around the beginning of the year, but this is where the change is coming again.
For example, while the work style of remote work at home remains, it goes back and forth between the office and home. While having a meeting outside, it is not the office but the home.
I feel that we are changing to a hybrid style that mixes old and new work styles. If this happens, you'll want a tool that can be manipulated accordingly. For example, having one lightweight and high-spec laptop should be an advantage for every occasion.
There are several options, but for recent models, the "HUAWEI MateBook X" is exactly that! 13 inches. While suppressing the necessary functions, the unnecessary ones are logically stripped off to create a wonderful one.
Here, I would like to introduce the brush-up points that you can feel from this "scraped off" point. Even among the small laptops these days, I think it's a result of conscience, so if you are looking for footwork on your PC, please read it carefully!
A feeling of size that has been stripped to the limit.The body is small and lighter
First of all, it is a feeling of size that you can tell at a glance that it has been "scraped off".
The body size is smaller than A4 paper (about 284 x 207 x 13.6 mm), and the weight is only about 1 kg. When I first got it, I thought, "Is it one size smaller?" Because of its size and lightness. But when you lift the top plate, you'll see a crisp 13-inch screen with a thin bezel that hits the edge.
please look. Bezel is awesome! The bezel has been stripped off to the limit on the top, bottom, left, and right, and the screen occupancy rate is a whopping 90%. The upper panel is almost the screen.
The size is 13 inches and the display ratio is 3: 2. This is a ratio that is surprisingly easy to see on websites and spreadsheets. The resolution is 3000x2000 at this size, and the dot pitch is 278ppi, which is a tablet-class pitch. Naturally, the scaling display (225% as standard) with HiDPI (high pixel density) makes the characters clear and clear.
The brightness is 400 nits, which is outstanding, and it supports 100% of sRGB, and the color expression is perfect. Of course the touch panel. Due to the thinness of the bezel, it feels more powerful than 13 inches, and whether you are watching photos or videos or entering text, this fineness gives you a richer experience and comfort. Will give you.
Keyboard and touchpad for increased comfort as a result of scraping
The space beside the keyboard has been reduced to the limit, and it is equipped with a full-size keyboard despite its small body. The key pitch was actually measured 19 mm. The keystrokes are deep enough, and the feeling of repulsion when pushing the finger back is excellent. The keyboard is snappy and comfortable to hit, and the fingers that hit the letters run comfortably.
By the way, this trial machine has an unfamiliar key layout because the keyboard is an overseas version, but please be assured that the domestic sales model will be Japanese keys!
Look at this touchpad. Isn't it different from the one you're used to? Yes, there is no edge on the front side.
Until now, there have been PCs that attacked the touchpad to the very edge of the palm rest, but the "HUAWEI MateBook X" has even the edge removed, and there is no stopping. Even if the size of the main body is small, we have a wide touchpad. Not only is it beautiful in design, but the user is naturally impressed by the fact that it doesn't make you feel the small footprint, saying, "Wow! It's small but wide!"
Moreover, this touchpad has a very good click feeling.
It's almost never submerged, but you'll get a nice click of feedback. It's an adjustment that appeals to the senses, and every time I click it, I get "No, this feeling is crazy". The texture is smooth, and the gesturing fingers slide lightly. This touchpad feels too good and sly.
What's more, the dual microphones are packed in the dents for putting your finger on when opening. It's strange (I praise you).
Considering the usage scene, the hole of the microphone is ideally on the front side, not on the side of the main body. I understand that, but isn't it too craftsman to put a microphone in this slight cut and a slight thickness? Design power and design power that does not lack functions while eliminating waste to a small extent. This is amazing. It's a strange structure (I'm complimenting you) ...
"Rotating parts" that have been stripped off.Review the heat dissipation system to a fanless structure
"HUAWEI MateBook X" adopts a fanless structure. The heat generated from the chip spreads from the bottom to the back of the display via the hinges, and is efficiently exhausted.
Fanless not only makes the body thinner and lighter, but also increases its resistance to impact if there are no rotating parts. It is an ideal structure for the style of carrying around. You don't have to worry about losing your concentration due to fan noise.
It's a very detailed part, but the hinge that supports the panel is also a nice point. It opens quickly with one hand with a light force, but it is not too soft and stops at the angle you want to see. The adjustment of this hinge is exquisite. It's hard to feel good from the moment you start using it.
By "stripping off" in this way, the "HUAWEI MateBook X" has been further refined as a mobile laptop. This time, we have also recorded a video that summarizes the points that need attention so that the charm can be conveyed even better. If you watch the video, I think that your understanding of this PC will increase.
Sensors and speakers that are not scraped off and are stored in a novel way
If you scrape everything, your PC will be lighter and cheaper, but in terms of comfort, you shouldn't scrape it, right? That remains properly. For example, the camera is the best.
There are a lot of video conferences these days, so you need a webcam. It would be a problem if this was scraped off by the times. I can't find the camera in front of the PC, but don't worry.
Hello with a pop-up when you click.
It is true that this thin body realizes a pop-up structure. Since it can be physically stored when not in use, you can prevent the trouble of forgetting to turn off the video chat. In this day and age, I think physical security is intuitive and important.
This is the one that is most needed in this era when masks are essential.
In Windows, there is a logon function with face authentication and fingerprint authentication called "Windows Hello", but in "HUAWEI MateBook X", the power button is a fingerprint sensor. When waking up from sleep, you can log on by simply putting your finger on it. The recognition accuracy is also good, and it's really a moment. I get the impression that tablet and smartphone technologies are well applied in this area as well.
Personally, I was also impressed with the sound. Two tweeters and two woofers are installed on the top, bottom, left, and right of the terminal, and you can feel the spread of sound from the entire PC. Sounding through this body is also like the technology of a tablet, and it is a point that HUAWEI's uniqueness shines.
It has ample specifications and good connectivity that can be used in a variety of situations.
The spec side is that if you put it together in a small size, you will be anxious.
But don't worry. "HUAWEI MateBook X" has a fairly good configuration in terms of specifications. The 10th generation Intel Core i5 processor of the brain is a low voltage version of 15W, but with 4 cores and 8 threads, it can be driven up to 4.2Ghz. The standard memory is 16GB. Storage is also 512GB.
A lot of CPU threads and abundant memory are advantageous in the business scene where you need to use various apps and tools at the same time. For example, launch a video conference app and create materials while browsing the web. Even in any scene, you should be able to operate it comfortably from beginning to end.
Considering it as a model pursuing footwork, it has the performance to handle various tasks with plenty of time, and the battery is about 11.3 hours (JEITA 2.0 standard), which is a long run.
In terms of usability, good connectivity is alive and well.
The cooperation between devices such as "HUAWEI Share", which can be operated from a PC just by touching the HUAWEI smartphone, is also powerful. For example, I want to paste a photo taken with a smartphone into a document! What a scene this feature comes into play. If you have a HUAWEI smartphone, you can touch the touchpad to link and the smartphone screen will be displayed on your PC as it is, so you can easily take photos to your PC by dragging.
Also, the Wi-Fi network is compatible with the latest "Wi-Fi 6", which is a point that cannot be overlooked.
High speed is also convenient, but since it can maintain high performance even when there are multiple connections, stable communication can be expected even in an environment with a large number of connections such as coworking spaces (support from the network device side is also required). Suddenly fell during a video conference! I don't think it will decrease.
Yes, this! Important.
A USB-C hub is provided as standard, and HDMI, D-sub, and USB-A ports can be expanded. If you buy it normally, it costs about 5,000 yen, so I'm really happy!
So at home, in Nomad, in the office. From the day I bought it, the structure that allows me to play an active role regardless of location or scene is really excellent as a practical tool. Of course, a high-output AC adapter that supports 65W charging is also included. I'm really glad I didn't get stripped off!

How to achieve both mobility and ease of use?
That's the eternal challenge of mobile laptops. I think that "HUAWEI MateBook X" was submitted after scraping and brushing up using all the weapons and experience points that a tech company could have.
After all, HUAWEI makes smartphones and tablets, so it's really good to use those technologies to put them together in small pieces. As with the existing models, I felt that the technology level and integration power of the "HUAWEI MateBook X" has taken a step further.
In terms of design, it has a solid atmosphere and a high-quality texture. Surprising functional beauty tickles the desire to possess. If you like gadgets, just looking at them from various angles is a nod to "good" and "yes, good".
Still, the price is 154,800 yen (excluding tax), which is also dropped by Iikanji.
In this way, the "HUAWEI MateBook X" has no compromises in performance and functions while successfully cutting the thickness, weight, and price. There are many small laptops, but I feel that it is one of the ones we should choose in these days when the way of working is changing again and flexibility is required.
The screen should be a little bigger! Regarding the needs such as ..., there is also "HUAWEI MateBook 14", so let's consider this as well.
The screen size is 14 inches (2,160 x 1,440), and the CPU uses "AMD Ryzen 7 4800H". Memory 16GB, storage 512GB. The body weight is 1.49 kg and the price is 109,800 yen (excluding tax). Click here for detailed specifications.
A busy modern age where various work styles progress in a hybrid manner. Get mobility and comfort with your HUAWEI PC to survive the ever-changing business scene!
