Underwhelming battery life ; No MicroSD card slot or USB-A port

If you want a lightweight laptop for work that runs well and looks good then the Huawei Matebook X Pro (2022) is a premium option to impress. Granted the battery life leaves a lot to be desired but that's its only significant downfall.

Stunning matte soft-touch finish ; Durable magnesium alloy build ; Lightweight and slim ; Great big trackpad ; Display properties are impressive

It's quite expensive ; Animations and graphics sometimes stutter ; Battery life fine but not amazing

It's safe to say that - on the whole - the updated MateBook X Pro is a refinement of the original 2022 design. But arguably it is the laptop that the earlier version should have been in the first place.

Beautiful, lightweight design ; Great keyboard & trackpad ; Solid performance ; Fast charging

No discrete GPU ; Under-par battery life ; No USB-A

The MateBook X Pro’s second 2022 revision doesn’t change much, but a jump to 12th-gen Intel chips and a lighter magnesium alloy build are enough to make a great laptop even better. It’s not quite perfect – we still miss the proper USB port, and rivals...
