First announced back in February, the MateBook X Pro 2020 edition from Huawei is finally available for pre-order (only in select countries at the moment) along with the updated MateBook 13 2020 edition and will begin shipping on May 21.

On the other hand, the smaller model gets a 13-inch IPS screen with 2160 x 1440 resolution, 1000:1 contrast, and 300 nits brightness. Additionally, both screens have touch capabilities. As for differences, the X Pro model weighs around 1.33 Kg (2.93 lbs) and comes with a 56 Wh battery, while the 13 model weighs 1.3 Kg (2.86 lbs) and gets a 41.7 Wh battery.
