Huawei MateBook D 15 (2022) review: A laptop reminiscent of the MacBook Pro

With the MateBook D series, Huawei offers affordable, high-quality multimedia and office laptops. While the MateBook D 15 (2022) shares most of those aspects with the smaller MateBook D 14, the higher-class MateBook D 16 is priced competitively, compared to the D 15. So what exactly are the concrete differences? Before we take a look, it is, however, worth noting that the prices on Huawei's online store are subject to constant change due to numerous discount promotions.
We also answer the question of whether the D 15 with an Intel Core i5, 16 GB of soldered LPDDR4X 3733 RAM, a 512 GB SSD and a matte FullHD IPS display is worth it also in view of the other competitors: The Acer Swift 3 SF316, Lenovo ThinkPad E15, Dell Inspiron 15, Lenovo IdeaPad 5, Acer Aspire 5 and the AMD variant of the MateBook D 15 (2021).

Case: A smart-looking MateBook resembling the Apple MacBook Pro
Just like its predecessor, the MateBook D 15 possesses an attractive-looking metal case that comes in light silver (Mystic Silver) or matte blue-gray (Space Gray). The case is very robust, manufactured to a high level and has a faultless finish. Additionally, the Huawei laptop feels very premium in the hand and is very hard to either twist or flex.
The device cannot be opened with one hand with the maximum opening angle measuring 170 degrees. Pleasingly, the hinges are now tighter than its predecessor.

Tipping the scales at around 1.6 kg, the laptop is pleasantly light. In our field of competitors, the Huawei MateBook is the most compact 15.6-inch device. While the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 15 is similarly compact, the Acer Aspire 5 possesses the largest footprint.
Features: The MateBook D 15 has few options despite many ports
The Huawei MateBook D offers quite a few ports but, on closer inspection, there are only two USB-A 2.0 ports, one USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, one USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 (without DisplayPort), HDMI 1.4b (4K @30Hz) and a 3.5 mm audio jack. As the laptop lacks a separate charging port, it is not possible to use USB-C peripherals without an adapter or dock when charging. We would like to have seen an SD card reader and Thunderbolt 4.
Communication
The Intel AX201's measured WiFi speeds, while not slow, are significantly below what the WiFi module is capable of, even under optimum conditions. Compared to its direct competitors, the Acer Aspire 5 with the older AX200, sits at the top of the pack.

Webcam
Huawei's webcam continues to run at a low resolution of 1,280 x 720 pixels. Image quality is noisy but would still be adequate for video conference calls but for the camera's keyboard location. The resulting angle makes it very difficult to use and very slim display bezels are to blame for this.

Accessories
Apart from the 65-watt USB-C power supply unit, no additional accessories are included. In terms of the packaging, no particular attention has been paid to either recycled or plastic-free materials.
Maintenance
Ten Torx screws (T5) have to be removed in order to access the device's internals. Only the M.2 2280 SSD, as well as the 57 Wh, screwed battery, can be swapped. Theoretically, the USB daughterboard and speaker can also be relatively easily swapped.
By contrast, the RAM and WiFi chip are soldered in place, while the AMD model of the MateBook D 15 (2021) has a slot-in WiFi module instead. The redundant 2.5-inch slot is no longer present in the 2022 model.
Guarantee
In the UK, Huawei provides a 12-month guarantee with the MateBook D 15 with extended guarantees also available.
Input devices: The MateBook provides a pleasant, fast typing experience
Keyboard
The Huawei MateBook's full-size keyboard possesses slightly textured, 17 x 17 mm keys. Key travel is short but pleasant, the pressure point can be clearly felt and key resistance is good. Also, the keyboard hardly flexes even when targeted pressure is applied.
All in all, a fast and quiet typing experience is possible. However, the "Home" and "End" function keys are absent. A reliable fingerprint reader is integrated into the power button. Interestingly, the keyboard isn't backlit unlike the smaller MateBook D 14.
Touchpad
Fingers glide effortlessly over the smooth surface of the average-sized touchpad and inputs respond promptly, with multi-touch gestures being equally as responsive. The integrated click buttons offer good travel but deliver rather imprecise feedback if you tend to click slowly and firmly. Quick, short clicks are fine.
Display: Solid for an office laptop but with severe light bleeding
The MateBook D 15 has a matte 15.6-inch display with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels (16:9) and an average brightness of 271 cd/m². In terms of static contrast, we measured a high 1,617:1. Overall, subjective image quality is good, also due to clear subpixels.
The strong bleeding present in our model could be annoying, especially with a dark background. Gray-to-gray and black-to-white latencies are surprisingly short at 10 ms and 11 ms, respectively and help prevent ghosting.
Lenovo's IdeaPad 5 and ThinkPad E15 G3 bieten offer brightness well above 300 cd/m². The MateBook uses PWM with a high frequency of 6 kHz which should be too high, even for sensitive eyes.

* ... smaller is better
The average Delta-E value color deviation is 5 and significantly above the threshold value of 3 which is the level from which color differences become visible to the human eye. It is not possible to improve this value (4.21), even after calibration, however, this helps eradicate the slight cyan tint. Our calibrated ICC color profile can be downloaded here.

The display backlight flickers at 6000 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 100 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 6000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18914 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured. |
Performance: No difference to the MateBook D 15's predecessor
The MateBook D 15 is an affordable office laptop with an Intel Core i5-1155G7, Iris Xe Graphics (80EUs), 16 GB of soldered LPDDR4X 3733 RAM and a 512 GB PCIe 3.0 SSD. This configuration is more than sufficient for office work and internet surfing. On paper, a slightly faster alternative is the Core i7-1195G7. However, according to our database, this only offers around 10 % additional single-core performance and also in turbo boost scenarios, due to performance-limiting settings. A cheaper variant with only 8 GB of RAM is also available. For basic office applications and internet surfing this is still adequate. An AMD APU has not made its way into the 2022 MateBook D 15.
Test conditions
The Huawei MateBook D 15 offers two performance modes, switchable via "Fn + P". Our benchmarks were carried out using performance mode. Only balanced mode is available in battery mode. We used this mode to determine the battery life. The following shows the CPU performance limits:
Performance mode / Performance limit | PL2 | PL1 |
---|---|---|
Performance | 49 W | 31 W |
Balanced | 49 W | 25 W |
Battery mode | 31 W | 25 W |
Processor
A Tiger Lake CPU from 2021 is still the beating heart of the MateBook D 15. The Intel Core i5-1155G7 clocks at 3.55 GHz which is a little higher than the laptop's predecessor (3.3 GHz). Accordingly, performance is marginally higher and the cores level off at a cool 69 °C.
With a hexa-core AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, last year's model is around 60 percent faster in our Cinebench R15 multi-loop test, while the octa-core Ryzen 7 5700U found in the Lenovo ThinkPad E15 G3 and Acer Aspire 5 runs 75 % and 54 % faster, respectively. By contrast, the Intel CPU"s single-core performance is slightly higher. In battery mode, only balanced mode is available, with multi-core performance dropping by around 20 percent.

System performance
When it comes to everyday performance, the Huawei MateBook is very responsive. The playback of a 4K YouTube video and simultaneous, swift, multi-tab surfing didn't present any great challenges to the Intel processor. The high turbo speed of 4.2 GHz, as well as the high-level single-core performance, are responsible for smooth internet surfing and the Mozilla Kraken and WebXPRT benchmarks are rated accordingly.
