Blazing fast performance

The ultra-portable Huawei MateBook 14 2021 delivers exceptional processing and graphical power with an AMD Ryzen 4000 H-Series processor and integrated AMD Radeon Graphics when the performance mode is enabled, it pushes the processor up to 40W, giving users the extra power for more demanding tasks such as bulk image editing and coding.

The dual Huawei Shark fin fans feature a new design with a denser “S”-shaped fin arrangement that offers improved cooling performance and fan acoustics, allowing users to focus and work in silence.

Battery life is also paramount to good user experience.

On a single charge, the notebook supports up to 10 hours of continuous local 1080p video playback, allowing users to catch up on the latest TV shows online even on the go. It also comes with a portable Huawei SuperCharge charger capable of providing lightning-fast charging for supported Huawei phones. In addition, USB ports are always on by default, so users can conveniently charge other peripherals using the notebook even when it is off.
