Huawei Matebook X Pro

[我的超酷故事]

Is it still worthwhile to get this laptop now? It's been a year since the release so was wondering if they are going to refresh this model..

The mx250 is better than the one that came with the 2018 model?

It seems to me like a less powerful version of the full fledge 25w mx150 but suck less power chip.

The 2018 one came with 10 watt mx150 right? wonder if its a increase in performance?

 

[hellhole]

this one like ala the 'S' model of the ipones...

The way I look at it not much enhancement. Maybe wait for 20X pro. Lol

Significant changes in this 2019 update:

1. 4-lane Thunderbolt 3
2. MX250
3. Uses the Sharkfin 2.0 cooling found in the recent Matebook13 (cools faster? Less noisy? dunno, gotta wait for teardown to see how efficient they implemented it)
4. i7, 16Gb model is $1,999 pounds sia
5. Enhanced Huawei Share (if you are fully into Huawei's ecosystem, this will be a +)
6. 3-fingers Gesture screen capture (not sure whether the software update will be enjoyed by older models)
7. They removed the "CNBC logo" from the back, and used a slightly more stylish Huawei text logo

For current 2018 X Pro owners, seems like no reason to upgrade. For aspiring X Pro owners, this is much more expensive then the last year model, which is selling at Amazon for US$1.3k

I'm using a cheap wireless (not BT) mouse that is rechargeable (so don't need source for batteries). Having the wireless dongle is not an issue for me, since I don't use the USB A port. My thumbdrive is USB C.

Better pricing in the US?

 

[freebie01]

how are you guys using the US adapter? is there a reliable source to buy a local adapter?

Just use an adapter to use with SG plug. If you want to spend more money to buy another adapter, I went with this Aukey one since there's also another port to charge my phone or other peripherals.

i using the anker power ports so far so good. i just use a adapter to convert from us pins to 3 pins. just for home use.

Satechi new desktop charger.

The 60w port can be used for the laptop. The 18w can be used to fast charge iPhone 8 series onwards with USB c to lightning cable, or most android phones

how long are your batteries lasting? at 77% battery remaining, my matebook x pro is saying 1 hour 43 mins left... surely something is wrong?
