The MateBook X Pro for 2021 is a well-built Ultrabook with an outstanding display, but a few things continue to hold it back.

We last saw the Huawei MateBook X Pro in 2019, when Executive Editor Daniel Rubino gave it a glowing five-star review. Though we skipped the 2020 model, Huawei hasn't stopped and now offers a 2021 version that I have in for testing. It's sporting new 11th Gen Intel Core hardware with Iris Xe integrated graphics, faster ports, Wi-Fi 6, updated cooling system, and more. I've been using it regularly to see where it excels and where it falls short.
