Connected future
In the future, laptops will become increasingly more intelligent, efficient and connected devices. Huawei is helping to drive this vision with new innovations that cater to all needs and deliver an interactive experience that seamlessly integrates laptops with phones.
Multi-screen Collaboration does this and more; Huawei was able to clear the obstacle between the basic architecture of Windows and Android systems, realising the full potential of seamlessly connecting the two. It allows a user to drag and drop files between smartphones and the MateBook 13 freely.
At the same time, laptop accessories such as the keyboard and mouse can be used as peripherals of your smartphone, providing a more convenient user experience. The laptop is then able to share more advanced office applications with your phone to uncover a brand-new office experience that includes your phone, for a much more secure and convenient office environment.
Display-wise, the MateBook 13 has a 2K display - 2160x1440 at 200ppi - with a contrast ratio of 1000:1 and supports 100 per cent of the RGB color gamut. It can display rich details for users when viewing HD quality imagery and can effortlessly display images and videos with speed and accuracy.

This enables the screen to track multiple touch inputs with high precision and supports Huawei's Fingers Gesture Screenshot feature as well. By performing a three-finger downward swipe, users can quickly capture and save a screenshot.
And with ultra-light notebooks becoming extremely popular, the MateBook 13 has an industry-leading screen-to-body ratio of 88 per cent. Side bezels measuring at 4.4mm provide the MateBook 13 with a large display inside a small form factor helping it to retain its portability. Unlike most 16:9 laptops on the market, the MateBook 13 has a 3:2 display to give it even more viewable screen space. It also measures 286 x 211 x 14.9mm and weighs about 1.3kg.
The MateBook 13 features a large 41.7Wh battery that combines with advanced power management and cooling solutions to provide all-day life.
