A hybrid work setup calls for an equally adaptable device that can empower our professional lives. Huawei steps up its game as it launches the new MateBook 16s that has so much in store for content creators, graphic designers, and the like. On-the-go workaholics can benefit from the performance, screen quality, and productivity boost this laptop can offer.
One glimpse of the design automatically signals a high-end, powerful device. Built for professionals, it certainly looks the part — sporting a sleek and robust design in Space Grey. Since it comes in a single colorway, it’s quite noticeable how Huawei plays it safe with minimalist and neutral designs. It’s suitable for those who like to keep it simple.
While it’s comparably lighter than some of its competitors, this 16-inch laptop is still heavy to carry around if you’re always out and about as it weighs 1.99kg. But with the stunningly large touch screen with narrow bezels, it might just be the load you’re willing to bear. Propped up at the top center is the webcam. Adding modern touch and convenience is the sizable touchpad and fingerprint power button. You have six ports at your disposal: USB-C, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI, 3.5mm headphone jack, and two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports.
Taking a major leap, Huawei equipped the MateBook 16s with the unparalleled power of the 12th Gen Intel Core i7-12700H processor. It’s expected to perform exceptionally well while working on multiple large files and running heavily loaded photo and video editing software. To further complement its top-tier performance, it’s packed with 1TB SSD and 16GB RAM.
Meanwhile, the 84Wh battery life is paired with a 135W power adaptor that’s claimed to charge up to 50% in just 30 minutes. We’ll determine how the aforementioned will fare on different scenarios and workloads.
If you got hooked on the seamless user experience and impressive capabilities of the Super Device, then you’ll be delighted to know that the MateBook 16s receives another innovation — Smart Conference solution. With how frequent virtual meetings are, I’m convinced that almost everyone has at least witnessed or encountered issues. Participants have difficulty listening to the speaker. Some are hesitant to turn on their cameras due to an untidy background, resulting in a less interactive meeting. Thankfully, Huawei addressed these problems and came up with new features like AI noise cancellation and AI camera that has three video effects, among others .
In a fast-paced world, it’s only appropriate that we and everything around us are able to keep up. It’s also about identifying problems and finding the right solutions. Given that Huawei continues to strive for innovation to provide an even more seamless user experience, it’s inviting to immerse oneself in the Huawei ecosystem.
