Huawei’s New Matebook Trio

Hot on the heals of Microsoft’s new Surface pro announcement, Huawei unveiled three new MateBooks to the world.

The MateBook X, E and D are technically successors to the company’s original laptop / tablet hybrid unveiled last year, however only one of them – the MateBook E – is a direct step up from the first generation device.

“At Huawei, we strive to bring new advances to market that inspire people to imagine and explore what’s next – our new flagship series of beautifully crafted MateBooks makes this possible,” said Richard Yu, CEO, Huawei Consumer Business Group. “With a stunning new design aesthetic and outstanding performance, the MateBook X and D are the first devices that feature the impressive Dolby Atmos Sound System.

This is business – styled.”
