In search of a laptop and opinion on Huawei MateBook D 14 2020 AMD

Aristos

Hi all,

 

I'm in search of a laptop. Mostly will be used for multimedia consumption and working from home, hence around 14-15 inches. Budget around 800-900 EUR but willing to go a bit higher for something that is worth the money.

 

I am searching for something with a 4000 series AMD CPU, nice screen, big touchpad and well built construction. I don't believe I'm in need of a dedicated GPU but if I can find a laptop that has one as well that will be a bonus.

 

I stumbled upon this new Huawei MateBook: https://consumer.huawei.com/uk/laptops/matebook-14-amd-2020/buy/

 

There is two variants:

  1. One with the Ryzen 5 4600H, 8GB Ram, 256GB SSD at £749.99 or 825 EUR;
  2. Another one with the Ryzen 7 4800H, 16GB Ram, 512GB SSD at £949.99 or 1050 EUR;
  3. I believe some countries have the option of the Ryzen 5 with 16GB Ram/512 GB SSD for around 900 EUR.

Looks decent with 1440p display with 3:2 aspect ratio, big touchpad and metal body.

  • How does the above look to you?
  • Does anyone have experience with Huawei laptops?
  • Are there any similarly specced laptops around the same price?

Open to suggestions for other laptops that fit the above criteria.

 

Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for replying! Well the cheapest I could find is from this German site: https://www.cyberport.de/notebook-und-tablet/notebooks/lenovo/pdp/1ca6-009/lenovo-campus-thinkpad-t14-20ues00l00-14-fhd-r7-4750u-pro-16gb-1tb-ssd-dos.html at 1219 EUR for a Ryzen 7 Pro 4750U, 16GB Ram and 1TB ssd.

 

I also saw this Lenovo one: https://www.cyberport.de/notebook-und-tablet/notebooks/lenovo/pdp/1c31-3qg/lenovo-ideapad-gaming-3-15arh-15-fhd-120hz-r5-4600h-16gb-512gb-ssd-gtx1650ti-dos.html
