Saw this on the ebay store, thought it was a fantastic deal for the machine given specs and weight.

I am not very comfortable buying Huawei brand with current ongoing US.China trade war. But the Price is very attractive.
How does the US.CHINA trade war impact your decision?
potential loss of software/OS/aftersale service support perhaps?
Surely Microsoft handles that since they’re the store front for them in aus?
We got hard evidence from Edward Snowden that USA regularly spies on people and their spy agencies regularly installs backdoors via both hardware and software. Also, the major components in this laptop are the Intel CPU and Microsoft Windows which are both direct from USA (both suffers from major security flaws).
U.S. allegations of Huawei spying is like a Fox in the Hen Pen crying "Wolf".
In my opinion, you are more at risk of the CIA or US companies spying on you than anything the Chinese might do.
From a country with 229years history has 220wars.
@nomoneynoproblems: As European refugees, Americans systematically geocided more than 10million native Indians.
@[Deactivated]: Please. I don't care to argue revisionist history. How did you get out of the firewall? Love the 50 cent shills downvoting me.
@[Deactivated]: Technically they were native Americans. I like how the west gets to continue to call them Indians because they mistakenly thought they found India and not the new world.
Your comments has nothing to do with actual product or review but pure arrogance and hatred. Please keep that in mind if you have a racial preference, you might as well stood in a wrong forum.
Must be alot of Chinese on this site who bow down to their CCP overlords…. Team USA all the way!
This is no longer of concern for Microsoft, as they have been given the license to trade with Huawei.

it doesn't affect existing devices.
Absolute bargain. But Huawei. But Bargain. But Huawei.
Anyone know if the Intel® UHD Graphics 620 is any good for gaming? :)
League, dota, minecraft, rocketleague, most indie games
It's integrated graphics so you wont get any hard perfomance. AAA titles will run like powerpoints.
nejjjj
I will just say no. Zondor is right in their comment on those games but really set your expectations very low for games. The new 10th gen iGPUs (iris pro) are about 2x as powerful for games so either hold on for those or look for a MX250 or 1050/1650maxQ
Are these still eligible for free returns (like purchases from the MS store)?
thanks
They said yes. You need to ask them the procedure. I asked that question with Surface go because their MS site had a free sleeve. I didn't return it anymore.
Does anyone know if this comes with the matedock in the box for hdmi, vga and usb 3?
not seeing it included and told not but since I never seen it can't be sure.
received and checked inside, yes, the matedock is included. Happy
Sigh. Why can't this be retina display… 😜
They can only copy so much
Darn missed it. OOS :(
f***, Calling Auspost to activate my gift cards. All gone when I came back….
What an absolute bargain - I picked up the matebook pro and it's an absolute beast.
This time next year hopefully there'll be something similar but with 10th gen and 16 GB.
Looking forward to that.
Been having this dream for a few years now.
Let's hope Intel doesn't run into more production issues.
The latest Matebook runs Linux so I dunno..
Missed out but I bought the Lenovo from TA deal so not too sad
whats TA deal, any links please, I am looking to buy Lenovo X1 carbon ?
Thanks OP
Anyone else notice the base of one side of the laptop wobbles ?
Damn i wish I hadn't slept on this does anyone think there will be another sale like this?
Yep, this is mighty cheap.
