Dubai: Huawei’s ambitions now extend well into the full set of devices connected around a core smartphone. With its new laptop models, the Matebook 13s and 14s, the Chinese tech company sure has what it takes to make those ambitions come true.

The laptops expand on the ‘Super Device’ promise Huawei is working on, with their all-scenario device connectivity features. The 14.2-inch model features the 2.5K 90hz Huawei FullView touch Display and 11th Generation Intel Core i7 Processor. Matebook 13s and 14s are priced at Dh5,299 and Dh5,399, and will be available in the UAE from November 25. The latest Matebook comes in three colours: spruce green, space grey and mystic silver. (UAE residents can pre-order on the Huawei website.)

The Super Device aims to provide an ‘intelligent experience across workspace scenarios and seamless integration with the new Smart Office experience’, says Huawei. This allows different Huawei products to share and integrate consumer data. With the distributed technology feature, one will not require a USB cable or a pen drive to transfer data. With the Huawei Share feature, all data can be transferred in one tap.

“The post-pandemic distress saw a change in customer behaviour, and Huawei Super Device Smart Office is our solution to the new world,” said Keith Li -Country Manager, Huawei Consumer Business Group, UAE.
