I have Matebook D 15 with Intel.  Runs pretty cool and quiet.  But it's a budget laptop with poor contrast (800:1).  Any Matebook with contrast over 1000:1 is midrange to premium and uses more powerful Intel processors.  Alas, Intel had a monopoly for so long they became complacent.  All their CPUs are power hungry inefficient.  On Amazon, I read too many complains of Matebook fans getting too loud just doing simple tasks like video editting.  So whenever I see a midrange to premium Matebook with Intel Im shaking my head.  The AMD version would run much quieter...

The predecessor of this, Matebook 16 with AMD Ryzen 7 and 5 was reviewed here and was found to have 1700:1 contrast.

Strange that they offer an i9-12900H, yet they only include 16gb max ram.
