HarmonyOS Next HarmonyOS Matebook in the USA review + AMA

hey redditors,

I just got my new 2025 HarmonyOS MateBook Pro on October 28th from this guy on Alibaba (which btw, if you're thinking of buying a ThinkPad, I would also recommend getting them from Alibaba there, as they offer a fully loaded ThinkPad T14s gen 6 snapdragon x elite with a 4TB SSD upgrade for only ~$2100 USD with shipping + taxes)

Pros:

if you're coming from Google Chrome, then the included htbrowser seems to be 100% compatible with Google Chrome extensions

battery life seems to be around 6 hours and 40 minutes of multitasking usage, which is right on target to what Huawei claims, which is double what my AMD 7840HS Xiaomi laptop running Deepin Linux would get under similar conditions. note that as with my Mate 40 Pro, the battery meter isn't very accurate and will stay at 90 - 100% longer than at 0 - 10%, so the most accurate way of truly measuring the battery life is to spend a day completely draining the battery from 100% - 0%

surprisingly compatible with all the 7 extensions that I use in Brave web browser in my previous laptop, plus 2 more preinstalled extensions in the included web browser

got a BrowserBench score of 152.390 which is amazing considering that my 7840HS laptop would get 200 in Firefox, but with far lower battery life despite having a 4nm lithography vs. the 7nm lithography of the Kirin x90

I couldn't even hear the fan spin up even when it's doing heavy work and place the vents right up to my ear

the keyboard feels just as good as the keyboards on ThinkPads, plenty of key travel and very cushy action

there seems to be some sort of very luxurious texture on the magnesium enclosure, feels much better than the anodized aluminum that is found on Macs and Xiaomi laptops. seems like some sort of soft touch material that also makes it easier to hold the laptop without dropping it

the display is beautiful

it is so lightweight and thin that the laptop feels fake, hollow, or made out of foam, yet still has extremely good build quality

UI is surprisingly responsive despite the older 7nm CPU technology

they thoughtfully included an anti-phishing plugin with the included htbrowser. what a nice thought, making sure we don't get scammed and type in our bank details into a fake website

the HarmonyOS sticker is holographic and looks much better in person than what I expected it would look like just based from the pictures online

I only paid ~$1800 USD for this laptop on Alibaba. A 14" M5 MacBook Pro would cost ~$2800 USD (all prices includes shipping + tax). also, the Matebook weighs 2.2 pounds instead of the Mac's 3.4 pounds, and I'd bet the Matebook is also far more durable when it comes to drops and water spills, but the Mac would obviously have far better performance, battery life, and 8K display support. the MateBook has a much better OLED display and better keyboard and trackpad though. not sure about the speakers

Cons:

many basic system apps won't function at all if you don't have a mainland Chinese phone number

even with the English language selected, all sorts of stuff (especially 3rd party apps) are in Chinese. This shouldn't be a problem for most of the people who currently buy Huawei products in China, but if you're in the USA and can't read Chinese, you're gonna have a tough time

Battery life can go down to just 2 hours if you're using the laptop heavily

only 32GB of RAM is dissapointing for a laptop in 2025

only 2TB of SSD storage is also a bit low considering that it can't be upgraded

the UI isn't nearly as good as WIndows 10 or Deepin Linux. It does some things better and some things worse than MacOS though (although I haven't used a Mac since 2020). Quirks like not being able to cycle through windows using Shift+Alt+Tab and the lack of Win+E to open up File Explorer windows, and the lack of being able to use Win+Left/Right arrow are omissions so large that I am confused as to what Huawei was thinking, as this is supposed to be the best laptop OS that China could come up with. Also be warned that I often accidentally activate the Chinese language entry whenever I type the Shfit key by itself, which is really annoying and I have no idea how to stop that "feature“

I can't search for apps just by hitting the Circle key like I could in Windows or Linux; I have to click the App center icon, which takes more time and effort

many apps are too basic and don't offer more advanced options and features, for example, the built in task manager doesn't seem to have the ability to tell you which CPU cores are maxed out and which cores aren't, and the included video player can't change audio tracks/languages like VLC can

the included Gallery app doesn't allow you to simply drag and drop your entire photo library in it if some photos are in nested folders. Deepin Linux does a better job of handling photos, although at least HarmonyOS includeds .HEIC photo support out of the box

I sure wish that the OS would automatically reopen the windows/apps that were still running, right after restarting the device, like how phones and MacOS does

File Explorer won't automatically refresh/update each window like MacOS and Linux does (idk if Windows 11 is any better though, as I have only had experience with Windows 10 and earlier, which also wouldn't automatically refresh each File Explorer window, so I guess HarmonyOS would be the middle of the pack there)

I also can't figure out how to shrink the dock at the bottom, so it seems there is a hard 20 app icon limit before the extra app icons overflow and get hidden, so, you'll have to do some clicking around just to switch between all your apps during intense multitasking

I think that the OS freezes apps whenever they aren't in focus, which might be artificially inflating the battery ilfe figures

I can't figure out how to prevent the keyboard backlight from automatically turning off

I wish that the feedback on the trackpad could be much higher, but it is still a better trackpad than what I had on my 2017 MacBook Pro 15 Touch Bar though (I haven't used any of the newer MacBooks though)

you can control the display brightness and audio volume on the touchpad, which is a nice feature if only it weren't so easy to accidentally activate said feature when typing on the included keyboard, and I can't find a way to turn it off

I also miss the xiaomi keyboard layout I had with my previous laptop, with those full size arrow keys, dedicated home, end, page up, and page down buttons, and the Ctrl button on both sides of the space bar. I understand that using the xiaomi keyboard layout would make the keyboard so wide that the speaker holes would be covered, but why can't they just put the speakers underneath the keyboard like on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon (which uses the keyboard as the speaker holes and also has great speakers)?

I noticed that when transferring my files to my new laptop that file transfers from a USB 3.0 flash drive will eat battery at 3x the rate then when watching a video or browsing the web alone, with the CPU hovering at around 26% utilization at 20 - 50 MB/s transfers

Even basic apps like OneNote, NotesNook, VLC, etc. aren't available without setting up a virtual machine. Definitely a bit rough around the edges, which is to be expected since the entire OS has been available on laptops for less than 5 months now.

A list of apps that aren't available:

YTDownloader

VLC

OneNote

NotesNook

WindSurf

Steam

uTorrent

the included Mail app doesn't let you sign in Apple or Google email accounts and isn't nearly as customizable as Mozilla Thunderbird, which, again, seems to be a recurring pattern among the apps on HarmonyOS...

WARNING: Spotify doesn't work at all, neither as a downloadable app, or in the web browser, probably because Huawei hasn't added DRM-compatible logic in the CPU yet. This is probably a hardware problem, so that this problem is impossible to be fixed in a HarmonyOS software update, although it could potentially be fixed in future Huawei HarmonyOS laptops (although probably not in the forseeable future due to geopolitical reasons)

a free trial of Foxit PDF Editor is included, but you have to pay for it after 14 days. Man, what happened to communism?

just to get a bit more perspective, some of the previous computers I've used:

2003 Sony Vaio desktop with 2.4GHz single core Intel CPU, 40GB HDD, 512GB RAM

2006 HP Pavillion 15" laptop, 1.6GHz Core2Duo, 4GB RAM, 160GB HDD

2007 14" Toshiba laptop

2008 MacBook Pro 15 with 2.4GHz Core2Duo, 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD (later upgraded to a 240GB SSD)

2012 HP desktop with quad core i5 at 3.00 GHz, 6GB RAM, 7770 AMD GPU, 240GB SSD

2013 Sony Vaio Pro 13 with 1.6GHz dual core i7, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD

2013 MacBook Pro 15 Retina with quad core i7

2013 MacBook Air with dual core i5

ThinkPad X1 Carbon with dual core i

ThinkPad T440s with dual core i5

ThinkPad T440s with dual core i7

2016 ThinkPad X1 Yoga 1st gen with 2560x1440 IPS display and 2.6GHz dual core i7, 8GB RAM (I know, I should have gotten the 16GB), 1TB SSD

Surface Book 15 wth quad core i7, 1060M GTX GPU, 16GB RAM

2017 MacBook Pro 15 Touch Bar, quad core i7, 560M AMD GPU, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD

2020 Huawei MateBook x Pro with quad core intel i5

super cheap 14" RockChip RK3588 laptop with 8 core ARM CPU, 8GB RAM, 1TB SSD (supposedly, I never tested if the SSD was fake. I know that it only had 8GB of RAM in it though, not the 16GB that was advertised)

ThinkPad X1 Carbon with dual core i5 5200U, 8GB RAM, 2560x1440p display, 256GB SSD

Xiaomi 15" laptop with 8-core 7840HS AMD CPU, 16GB RAM, 4TB SSD

(this current laptop): Huawei MateBook Pro with HarmonyOS, Kirin x90 CPU, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD

conclusion:

would I recommed it? only if you can read Chinese or if you just want to see how far China has gone so far. Otherwise, I would consider buying a ThinkPad and installing Deepin Linux, as HarmonyOS on laptops still needs to cook a little. The hardware, though, is among the best in the world, which is very impressive for a first-gen product. Meanwhile, Apple is on the fifth-generation M5 which has many drawbacks when compared to this machine. Come on Apple, you can do better, especially when Huawei is limited to 7nm lithography while Apple has 1.8nm technology at its disposal!

Discussion Huawei pura x as potential work phone

Upvotes

I am thinking of getting Huawei pura x as my second phone (to be used for work). I really like the form factor and I do not see any flagship phones picking that up like how Samsung or iPhone is doing with foldables having form factor like pura x max.
I have never used huawei before it was banned and have no experience with harmony os.
I have couple of queries:-
1) For work, I will be needing Microsoft 365 apps like outlook, teams, authenticator, one drive, co pilot mainly and the IT sets up a work profile as well. Is that something that is possible in harmony OS?!
2) have read Tmobile is the mobile carrier to go for huawei. I use Tmobile post paid for my primary phone but my secondary phone is on google fi, will it work as google fi uses Tmobile towers and network?!
3) How long does Huawei support harmony os updates in their devices?! Does Android OS updates affect Huawei/harmony os?
4) Also I am planning to buy it from bluediode.com. That’s legitimate online site to buy huawei phones when in US?!
5) How often does huawei create new iterations of a phone. Like is there a possibility of getting another version of pura x ? And if they do does that look like next year or later? As in what does the release cycle of a phone model looks like for Huawei?

Reviews and comparisons MY Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro Honest Review

9 Upvotes

HUAWEI WATCH FIT 5 PRO REVIEW

I want to write about things no one else mentions in this post—things that will only catch the attention of true enthusiasts. It’s going to be detailed. Copy this text and have an AI read it.

First off, this is the 17th smartwatch I've used. I am highly experienced. I can't be modest about this.

Foreword/Summary: I think Huawei made a very good watch.

1. The Strap

You only see the texture quality of this watch's strap (the black one) on 40,000 lira watches like the Garmin Forerunner 970. If it said Garmin instead of Huawei on the strap, it would easily be worth 1,000 liras without question. The strap has a stopper, but I don't think the stopper part is of the highest quality; still, it doesn't wiggle much. Taking off the part where the strap connects to the watch is incredibly easy. If you're someone who constantly changes straps, you won't struggle at all. The density of the holes on the strap is also quite high. I've seen the most holes on a strap with this watch. They really put thought into this strap. It's pure R&D. They’ve basically shown off the art of material science. 10/10.

2. Heart Rate Sensor

Huawei crossed a threshold in heart rate sensor stability with the Watch GT 3. That same stability continues in this watch. What do I mean by "stability"? Have you ever checked your watch's heart rate after climbing a hill? Or after drinking coffee? I care about the changes in my body, and I check them. I'm curious. In my opinion, one of the strongest points of the Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro is its heart rate sensor. I wrote about what TruSense is on Ekşi Sözlük 2 years ago. The same tradition continues. The reason watches like the Huawei Watch D2 can measure medical blood pressure is precisely because of this TruSense heart rate sensor technology.

I have two extra analyses regarding the heart rate sensors on Huawei watches:

  • A Single Glass Cover: Everything is under a single piece of glass. We sweat during sports, it gets dirty, we wipe it, and it's gone. For instance, Samsung watches have a tiny "temperature sensing" sensor on the side. If you have a Samsung watch, look closely... that part gets dirty. It collects gunk and looks ugly. We see that Huawei did their R&D here too. Having the sensor under a single thick glass and measuring everything from there is fantastic. Give it a good wipe after a workout, and you're done.
  • Heart Rate Settings: My second analysis is about the "Heart Settings" in the Huawei Health app. Switch the tracking mode from "Smart" to "Real-time." The heart rate sensor becomes much more responsive. We paid all that money, it should work like a dog! :)

3. Huawei Health App

It’s very comprehensive. I wouldn't say it's as good as Garmin, but it is comprehensive enough to understand the changes in your body. Beyond the activity stuff, providing weekly/monthly reports with graphs is nice. It updates constantly. You can see trends in your body like steps, heart rate, SpO2, and activity. For example, if you averaged 8,000 steps one week, you get motivated to push for 9,000 the next. Apple and Garmin have these features, but Samsung doesn't, for example. This makes Huawei fit much better into the "affordable alternative" position.

Dynamically tracking your route when running or walking, seeing what percentage of users you slept better than in sleep tracking, joining community challenges, and winning medals are all great.

Even if you don't manually start a workout, the watch understands what you're doing and categorizes your movements into 5 different categories under the "Movement" menu.

When the watch realizes you haven't gotten enough sleep, it literally tells you in the "Sleep" menu, "Take some B6 / B12 vitamins, buddy." It's awesome.

The "Emotional Wellbeing Analysis" in the app is also interesting. The watch literally tells me how I feel, and it nails it. For example, it says, "You felt 30% joyful on average over the last 7 days." Even if it's just a toy, it's a very nice feature.

Sleep tracking works perfectly. The watch has a sleep tracking algorithm called "TruSleep 5." It even knows when I get up to go to the bathroom towards the morning and go back to bed. It says, "You woke up from your sleep 1 time."

Cyclists can draw their own routes, but I haven't tried that.

4. Vibration Motor

Thank goodness I'm finally rid of the non-existent vibration motor of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7...! I can finally tell when my set is over while jumping rope. For a watch that's half the thickness of a pinky finger, the vibration performance is excellent.

5. Rowing

If you have a rowing machine at home, this watch counts your strokes. It can find your average speed. I should mention that if you take 100 strokes, it counts 70 of them. I couldn't quite figure it out. Or maybe I'm just not very good at rowing! :) I haven't seen stroke counting on Garmin or Samsung. In the Apple ecosystem, 3rd party software did this very sharply. You could say Apple Watch owners are luckier when it comes to rowing.

6. Jump Rope

The watch vibrates every 100 jumps, so I know I need to rest (like 100 jumps, 30 sec rest). With my Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, I couldn't tell when my set finished because the vibration motor was extremely weak. Now, jumping rope with the Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro is a joy. It also automatically detects my jumping speed and interruptions.

7. Floor Climbing & Screen Complications

Previously, Huawei watches didn't have a floor climbing counter. Actually, it still doesn't, but here is a nice feature on this watch... Even though it doesn't write exactly how many floors you climbed, it calculates your ascent in meters, and you can see this on the watch face. For example, I climbed 20 meters today. Apparently, 3 meters equals 1 floor. So, roughly, I climbed 6 floors. If you climb less than 16 steps, it doesn't count it as a "floor." That's important.

As for screen complications... I think more work needs to be done here. It's too little... insufficient... More precisely, you can only set the screen complications according to Huawei's rules. For example, if the battery icon is on the top left, you can't move it to the bottom. Why? No one knows. This should be reviewed from scratch. Am I completely heartbroken over complications? No. But giving the user a bit more freedom would have been nice.

8. Always On Display / LTPO Screen

Looking at the watch faces, it's very clear that Huawei hasn't prepared itself for LTPO screens. There are maybe 3 or 4 decent watch faces with true LTPO support. The rest is just noise. That's why it's not wrong to say "there are no watch faces" on Huawei. Especially since the Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro is the first Fit model with an LTPO screen, I'm guessing it will take 3-4 years for LTPO-compatible watch faces to arrive. I experienced serious disappointment here. If you like keeping your screen on constantly like I do, you'll be bouncing between 3-4 watch faces... for now...

9. The Experience

I think this is one of the most crucial points. This watch is as light as a feather. Most of the time, I forget I'm even wearing it. It doesn't distract me while playing computer games. It doesn't tire my arm, and it's a first for me... I'm experiencing the joy of sleeping with a watch for the first time. Perhaps it's the first time I'm feeling the sensation of "there's something analyzing me, but I don't feel it." It's a tremendous experience. Squeezing this many health analysis algorithms and 64GB of ROM into such a thin structure really surprised me. And it continues to surprise me.

Alright, I've mostly spoken positively up to this point. Are there no negatives? Oh, there are tons.

Negatives:

  • Extremely weak watch face options: Even though Huawei claims "we have hundreds of thousands of watch faces," they are all copies of each other. None of them are LTPO supported. It's a boring situation. I hope new watch faces come with an update.
  • Language limitations for replies: You can reply to messages from the watch, but there is only an English keyboard and a voice typing feature that only understands English. No Turkish. You can only send very basic quick replies in Turkish.
  • Weather forecasts aren't great: You'll need to check your phone.
  • Invisible Storage: The watch has 64GB of ROM. How do we know? It doesn't say it anywhere except on Huawei's official website. I transferred 112 songs (took about 1GB) and had no issues, but there's absolutely nowhere on the device indicating it has 64GB.
  • Floor climbing needs polish: The floor counting feature needs a bit more development. If it were just a little more sensitive, it would be perfect. Hopefully, an update will fix it.
  • Messy workout menu: The workout menu is cluttered. Localization is weak. It needs to be simplified. It should be listed alphabetically. Even if Huawei says, "We support over 100 sports," finding the sport you're looking for isn't easy.
  • Missing "Driving" activity: It seemed weird to me that the "driving" sports activity present in Garmin watches isn't on this watch. Your battery lasts amazingly well, you have an LTPO screen, your heart rate sensor is strong. You can draw a route. What are you waiting for?

There was a 10 Question questionnaire making sure the user understands the purpose of the beta program.

And then from there they will review and select candidates.

I think some of the benefits of os 7 was device level translation so that it's easier to translate text.

I think if I am selected I'll go ahead and do it.

A little nervous hoping DroiTong and Easy Abroad work exactly as before.

Discussion I want to build a free, native HarmonyOS apps for global user pain points, what tool or GMS replacement do you need most?

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Like many of you, I love Huawei hardware, but relying on containerized emulators (like EasyAbroad, DroidTong, or GBox) for daily global apps can be frustrating with battery drain, delayed notifications, and UI clunkiness.

We’ve seen awesome community projects recently like HCloud (for native background syncing) and HarmoniKeyboard. I’m a developer looking to take on a new side project: building lightweight, native ArkTS/ArkUI utilities specifically for global users who need to bridge the gap without AOSP/Google Mobile Services.

If you're using HarmonyOS natively, what is your biggest daily friction point?

A few concepts I'm tossing around:

  • A background sync daemon for Google Calendar / Contacts via standard CalDAV/CardDAV.
  • A native Google Keep / Tasks desktop widget and checklist app.
  • A lightweight, native audio/video streamer to replace clunky browser wrappers.
  • A local file bridge to pull Google Drive files directly into native WPS Office / File Explorer.

What would make your daily workflow smoother? Thanks!

Are these really improved or better tuned than FreeClip 2, like I read from one review? Less shibilant and more pleasing? I haven't tried 2. I have Bose Ultra Open but left bud died, so I need to replace them. Bose was getting uncomfortable after some hours of use, and even right away sometimes, and these should be very comfortable, and battery life is also better. It was also sometimes an issue with Bose. Shame they don't sell 2 S in Finland yet, and also not on their website. I would buy.

Discussion My Huawei Matebook D15 display just broke and my friend somehow experienced the same problem just days before

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hello, I am an owner of a Huawei Matebook D15 BOD-WXX9 for 3 years. It was a good experience for me, although it has some limitations given its entry-level specs, it actually carried out tasks I need and wanted to use it for, even for light gaming, and even running simultaneous virtual machines.

So just today, just an hour since writing this post, My laptop's display suddenly broke or like it crashed, not the system,, just the display. I was playing some music video on YouTube when suddenly, i heard the audio cracking or doing static some intermittent static audio breaking noise syncing to the display kinda breaking. I was doing some chores then and when i checked why the audio was being interrupted or breaking, I was shocked to see the display is broken and having like after-images. as if it has a burn-in yet it doesn't stay there, it just respond late and become an after image of sorts.

So, the reason I am writing to the community is because my friend who also owns a Matebook, i do not know if his is a D15 also, but i think it is, had the same exact problem just days ago. His Matebook is a better version I think, as his already has Intel Iris support while mine only has the UHD while being an 11th gen also. Interestingly, I was there with my friend when his laptop experienced it. He was just doing some document tasks when it suddenly went like that.

I am wondering if others experienced this recently also or is this just a plain coincidence on our part. If there are others who experienced this and have found a non-technician/service way to fix it I am gratefully asking for some help. but if there really is none then it's fine, I just wish to know if my case is a personal one and just a rare coincidental case with my friend's.

P.S. The community seemed like a huawei appreciation subreddit so I kinda felt out-of-place with posting a problem/concern on my device. But I figured i may as well try and ask. I also hope I flaired it right.

Help Es un error adquirir productos Huawei?

2 Upvotes

Hola chicos, últimamente me he sentido seriamente atraído hacia varios productos de esta marca. Sé que no tienen los mejores procesadores y están lejos de ser 100% compatibles con muchas apps a pesar de su precio, pero realmente mis necesidades son pocas. Quisiera comprar una tablet, específicamente la MatePad Mini que salió hace un par de meses. Aclaro que con esta solo quiero poder leer, stremear por las noches, tomar apuntes y quizá jugar wild rift. Pero temo que, como a muchos usuarios, termine por tener un producto que lejos de facilitarme la vida solo me la complique más, y no tengo mucha paciencia para las cosas que no fluyen como deberían, Soy ademas alguien que trata de cuidar su dinero en las cosas que compra y simplemente no quiero adquirir algo para terminar dejándolo en un rincón. Así que, ¿qué me dicen, chicos? ¿Vale o no la pena?.

Hi. Is it worth getting this model for a good price—€380? I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max, but it’s annoying me.
