just switched to a Matebook Pro X with Arch Linux and could not be happier.
Slick, long battery life (around 10 hours with browser and neovim + latex for writing).
3:2 screen perfect for writing
everything working (except of the finger print reader).
The webcam is at a strange place, yet you can be sure it is off and not recording you, I just put the laptop on a book and it looks fine for telcos.
Dell and Lenovo are a no go for me.
Compared to Dell/Lenovo, Huawei didn't put spyware on their computers yet :)
If you want a decent linux laptop, I also use a Pruism Librem 15 ... Great, the best if you are looking for a secure machine. It's my private one. Huawei for work.
- kgarten 7y agoJust wondering why I got downrated. Lenovo and Dell had documented spyware on their computers. We also know cisco and other American companies worked closely with the NSA and put backdoors in their software and hardware. Yes, Huawei is close to the Chinese government and there are definitely issues with that. Yes, they had spyware on some phones. Still no documented case of spyware on their computers :)
