Title: The Huawei MateBook 13 is coming to the United States for $999 USD
Post by: Redaktion on January 07, 2019, 15:01:36
The 13.3-inch laptop is 1.6 mm thinner than the 2018 MacBook Air and has a higher 88 percent screen-to-body ratio. Its Whiskey Lake-U options should provide a significant boost in CPU performance over the passively-cooled Amber Lake-Y processor in the Apple equivalent. The MateBook 13 launches later this month for a starting price of $999 USD.

Looks like the SSD is standard M.2 and the RAM is soldered. There's already teardown videos since it's been out in China for a few weeks now.

Title: 8GB RAM is Stupid

If Huawei didn't neuter the MateBook 13 by giving it only 8GB of RAM, it would have been a very appealing alternative to Razer Blade Stealth! Now they've ruined it themselves.
