@@houssamalucad753 I have been building my own computers since the 1980s. Being able to switch out specific parts that need to be changed has allowed me to only buy 4 computers since the 80s. All of my other upgrades have been incremental changes to those machines. Need video capture, add a card, need a faster graphics card, switch it, require additional ram, easy! My last laptop allowed me to switch the solid state drive for a bigger one, add ram, replace the CD drive with a second ssd. I took advantage of all of those options and kept the laptop running for 6 years. I used it with an external monitor keyboard and mouse after the battery died for a couple of years too. At which point I built another desktop from parts I had laying around. Now that I have said all this out loud into my voice recognition I realized that I don't want one of these new laptops because they won't last as long without the ability to do similar upgrades. I'm sticking with the desktop.
I had a 2018 for several years, probably my favorite windows laptop I've ever owned. Right up there with the XPS...best alternatives to a macbook in my opinion.
that was exactly what I was thinking, and the're also working on x86 emulation with ARM, so that's probably how they were able to engineer these boards sooo small to make enough room for the battery.
Not really, x86 still has got alot of potential, their efficiency wasn't great until 10th gen, they r doing remarkably better in mid performance to efficiency charts with every generation
@FactsBeFacts I'm not detached from reality mate. I own a 12th Gen i7 VivoBook and a Ryzen 5000 series ThinkPad, and multiple times, I've been able to use Apple silicon, so I'm definitely not detached. Not once did I mention performance in my original comment. It's impressive the power AMD packs in for very little power draw relative to Intels efforts, and I absolutely love my AMD laptop, but by design, there's no beating the efficiency of ARM. It might not be as powerful in some cases, and use case is entirely dependent on your apps and whether they work better on x86 or ARM. My case is already starting to be proven with these new Copilot+ PCs. Thin and light, and I'm sure they'll be powerful enough for most tasks.
But is no difference for Huawei. They just get banned for using the Intel and Qualcomm chips. Soon even Windows will ban them. While that may not be a huge problem (Huawei will anyway start this year to run on HarmonyOS for laptops as well) the chips are a problem. Intel was crap anyway (draining the battery life and throttle) but Qualcomm banning its a huge issue. They cant use the new Elite chips on ARM. I think this will be the last Huawei laptop for US and EU markets. They still have a lot of chips from Intel to cover the sales for about a year. But after that they have no chips yet to compete.
13mm thick?? That's literally 3mm thinner than the watch I'm wearing right now. I look forward to keeping one of these out of a landfill for $100 when someone gets sick of it for no reason in a few years.
The M1 MBA exists, soooo. They made it so good, that even the M2, M3 and soon M4 can not compete, too expensive. As long as Intel inside is on the sticker, you can forget about the battery and that is the most important component. Together with the price.
Yes,maybe,soon. But is the improvement as good at intel to M1? Or will it be as good then double the price to the M1? Is the average user going to notice? I do not know anyone that would trade the MBA M1 for anything at tis point for this price

The Matebook X comes with 32GB RAM and 2TB storage for £2099. What specs do you get on a MacBook Air for £1200? 8GB RAM and 128 GB storage? Because that‘s enough for 2024?
They do a i7 with 16GB of RAM and 1TB SSD for about £1200. Or you can always wait until they announce the 2025 version then these laptops go on sale and this i9 version will sell for around £1300.

i am convinced enough to change from insanely expensive apple Eco-system to Huawei Eco-system after watching enough Videos about all their Products and being a user of the amazing Mate 20 pro Phone
The 2018 version had an m2 drive and thermal issues hat caused bluescreening. After replacing the m2 drive, battery (5 years later), and in a custom power plan to throttle the CPU to keep heat down, its still working today.
I don´t know. Looks great but for that money, it better does. However, the battery life is not really impressive, it got fans, and no MacOS. I use a $700 MacBookAir and yes, no touchscreen (do not have use for it) but best keyboard and touch pad, great sound, headphone jack and most importantly, battery for days. And I got used to MacOS and will not have Windows again. Got an iPad as second screen and stand alone when the MacBook is not needed and everything was just over half of this Huawei. Is the touchscreen, 0.8" bigger screen and massive storage nearly $1000 more worth it? Oh, I just tested, 1min Video conversion into portrait tik tok was in 18sec done. On battery. That makes no difference on the Mac.
I wonder how long laptops will last. Definitely saw the increase of tablets being used in classes during my time at college that tablets. Here in the states at mine everyone almost had some sort of Mac, but saw my fair share of people with iPads and the keyboard accessories and Apple Pencil set up
This video aged like milk especially after Windows launching (again) Windows for ARM with Snapdragon X Elite/Pro. Whenever you compare anything with Macbook Air, the problem with windows laptop for most of the time is battery life which can only achievable with more efficient ARM. Whenever you spend money as much as a Macbook Air, you will get same or better specs laptop but rarely same built quality. Even as lifelong windows user, I am intrigue to buy Macbook Air M1 for its built quality and battery life.
It is not cheaper than the MB Pro 14 (M3 Pro), as that is £250 off at the moment. Depends whether Huawei offers any deals. But with double the battery life the MB Pro 14 is a better choice for most creators.
Not a one-brand guy at all, always looking for the best price-performance deal. But in this case, no. The MacBook air 13inch M1, is still performing perfectly and half the price. Best price performance laptop I ever had. But I am interested in the Pura Ultra and for sure the Huawei new wearable huawei watch fit 3.
I hope huawei can come out a reduced performance for battery life matebook edition, which is as light as matebook x pro and more battery life than matebook x pro, since having a laptop is for mobility, if i want to do productive work i will do it on desktop.
Buy M1 Macbook Air, I have tried too many windows laptops which has horrible battery. I am a programmer, when I entered into this field I didn't understand why a lot of coders use macbooks. But then I have realized that I need long battery hours, portability and less glitch while switching through things. One more thing buy more RAM, at least 16gb!
Macbooks have only earned a significant advantage over Windows laptops since switching to ARM. In my experience, Windows laptops suffer fewer annoying bugs than MacOS machines. While I agree the M1 Air is an absolute steal for the price, unless you entered into coding in the last few years, your perspective on why programmers use Macbooks isn't accurate.
