Huawei has updated its MateBook range with the ultra-compact D 14 and D 15

Hello matey

Huawei has updated its MateBook D series of ultralight notebooks as part of the company’s ongoing mission to “bring digital to every person.” How noble. The refreshed MateBook D 14 (£649) and D 15 (£599) are still being pitched as compact beasts designed for work and play on-the-go, but are now being touted as some of the smallest and lightest in their respective screen size categories. Despite their diminutive size both models seem fairly mighty, and pack a Full HD Authentic FullView display, robust 12nm AD Ryzen 5 3500U mobile processor, AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics, and a Huawei Shark Fin Fan with fancy s-shaped blade for improved cooling and performance. 8GB of dual-channel DDR4 memory and at least 256GB of SSD storage should be enough handle most high-load apps, letting you do a fair bit of heavy lifting if the need arises. The real kicker, though, is built-in support for multi-screen collaboration via the use of Huawei OneHop, a feature that lets allows the MateBook and a Huawei smartphone to share a single seamless display. Not bad for a supposed lightweight, eh!

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
