The Huawei certainly looks like a MacBook, but If you wanted that form factor to run Linux it would make sense to buy it and overwrite your windows with Linux than buy a Mac and overwrite that.
I always thought the “apple tax” was paying for a better experience with macOS. If you aren’t gointg to use macOS and use Linux instead it would make sense to buy the machine less expensive os (windows). Ideally you’d buy a machine without an os, but that’s not really an option on notebooks. If you wanted to revert to windows that windows based machine is also a better starting point.
I ended up buying a notebook with Linux pre installed. It’s been great and I’m surprised there weren’t more options for that route.
