So Huawei has been producing some great laptops as of late, rivalling a lot of other companies, where just like their smartphones, they provide one of the best hardware or specs without making us burn our wallets.
And just when you think that we won’t be hearing from Huawei anytime soon, they said βuh uhβ, because they are BACK with their very first launch of a desktop computer, which is the HUAWEI MateStation S that is priced at only RM2,999 for the whole entire set – the PC, monitor, keyboard and the mouse as well.
Hey guys, Adam Lobo here from Adam Lobo TV and since you all love it when I dive straight into the reasons on why you should get something. Well, for HUAWEIΒ MateStation S, I have 7 reasons why you should get it right now!
Reason #1 – World’s First Fingerprint Power On & Unlock Desktop PC
First is the fact that THIS is the world’s first fingerprint power on & unlock desktop.
As mentioned earlier that the MateStation comes with a keyboard, which has a quite comfortable and slim form factor and what’s extra cool is that there is a fingerprint power on button, very similar to their laptops but this starts up your PC and will log into Windows instantly.
Now, this is surely a huge plus as typical PCs only allow you to scan your fingerprint only when logging in to Windows, where you will need to usually manually turn on the power first.
Speaking of the keyboard again, I don’t know about you all, but I always preferred having a full-sized keyboard, especially with the number pad at the sides compared to a tiny little keyboard on laptops as it is even easier to use when it comes to video editing, since each scissor key mechanism has a 2.5mm travel and great tactility on every single press.
Reason #2 – Efficient Multitasker
As for the next reason would be the efficient multitasking capabilities.
So, remember how I kept going ON and ON mentioning the Multi-screen Collaboration between the Huawei smartphones and their tablets and laptops? Well, guess what, you can do the same on this MateStation S! All you have to do is just tap your smartphone against the Right Shift Key to activate that.
Now for those of you who are new and not familiar with what Multi-Screen Collaboration is, it is a feature that allows you to have your smartphone screen right at your laptop, or for this case the PC’s screen, to make daily tasks like answering your texts from your smartphone and transferring pictures on the PC itself without even lifting up your phone.
And if you are a student or working in a work from home situation, this makes things very handy for use cases when having a virtual meeting, and opening another screen to take notes and opening the 3rd screen for further research on the topic’s discussion.
So if you want to impress your lecturers or your bosses at work, well, here you go.
Reason #3 – Perfect Choice For Smaller Desk Space
Looking at the 3rd reason would be how this is the perfect choice for a limited desk space.
So when I moved in to my new studio, I wanted to keep the space as minimal and functional at the same time and the desk that I am using for this setup is this cheap Linnmon desk from Ikea where it fitted in perfectly, without needing to buy a big and expensive table to house the MateStation S.
Since the PC comes with a capacity of 8.6L, it is a third of the size of a typical regular PC case and the ports in front and at the back makes the overall design not only functional but also very minimalistic as well.
Reason #4 – Immersive Viewing Experience
Then as for the 4th reason, is the bigger and immersive viewing experience.
Since the package comes with a 23.8-inch Full HD Display with a 90% screen to body ratio, it gives you high definition picture quality, so you don’t have to squint and look at every inch when it comes to precise video, audio and photo editing since you have that large of a display compared to using a typical laptop’s screen.
Now having a screen eye level is also way better to improve your posture when it comes to hours and hours of using the PC since the monitor is at somewhat of an eye-level.
And speaking of long term usage, it is surely an added plus that this display also offers TUV Rheinland Low Blue Light Certification and it is Flicker Free too, which is so beneficial in every kind of situation, whether if you are light or a heavy user like me.
Reason #5 – Smart And Quiet Cooling Support During Long Hours
As for reason number 5 is the quiet cooling support for the MateStation S.
Now since the MateStation S has vertical blade fans that work in tandem with the high-density bionic heat sink, it gives excellent cooling performance during a very long usage, where the previous video that I released on the channel took me about 8 hours of video editing and the fan didn’t sound like a lawn mower…vrooooooooooooooom…as it was quiet at 22 db when it’s idle and at only 28 dB when it’s doing intensive work on the PC.
Reason #6 -Smoother And Faster Connectivity
Then looking at the second last reason is the amount of IO and the Wireless connection speeds, both for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth as well.
Starting from the IO, in front:
- a USB-C port that supports fast charging for your smartphone up to 18-watts
- another USB Type-A port
- Headphones jack
Then looking at the back:
- the RJ45 Ethernet Port
- Four USB type-A ports
- HDMI, VGA and a serial port as well, to connect lots of external options.
And in terms of wireless connections, it has 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 as well.
Reason #7 – Professional Performance
Finally, for the 7th and last reason to get the HUAWEI MateStation S, it is because of its Pro Performance and self upgradability.
With specs of a 6-coreΒ AMD Ryzen 5 4600G Processor, and Integrated Radeon Graphics, it has 8 gigabytes of DDR4 RAM and 512 gigabytes of M.2 NVMe SSD storage.
And with this, it handles my Blackmagic RAW 6K files well, without any issues with playback, when it comes to video editing on Premiere Pro.
Although I am not much of a gamer I did test out Genshin Impact and it ran the game smoothly as well.
Now speaking of playing online games or just going online, since it has the integrated 2×2 MIMO Wi-FI connectivity as mentioned earlier, this goes very well with Huawei’s AX3 Dual Core Wi-Fi since it has Wi-Fi 6 and comes at a crazy affordable price of RM199.
And if you live in a huge house, probably a two-storey or even three-storey house, you can also have more to be connected as a mesh system.
Also worth mentioning is that if you would like to upgrade the RAM and storage yourself, you can do so since it supports dual-channel DDR4 memory for additional SSD, HDD and RAM, which was extra sweet.
