Our Verdict

MacBook Pro 14 (M3 Pro) vs MateBook X Pro (2024)

The Apple MacBook Pro 14 with M3 Pro’s 14-core GPU and 11-core CPU outperforms the MateBook X Pro’s Intel Arc 8-core iGPU and 16-core Ultra 9 185H in sustained workloads, thanks to its fanless thermal design under 24W TDP versus Huawei’s 45W sustained power draw. Choose the MacBook Pro if you edit 4K video with Final Cut Pro—its 36GB RAM and macOS optimization handle 10+ layers of ProRes without throttling. Pick the MateBook X Pro if you run Windows-only apps like AutoCAD or Photoshop with 32GB RAM and need a 980g ultraportable that lasts 10.5 hours on local video playback. In UAE at AED 9199 vs AED 6499, the Huawei wins on value because it delivers 89% of the MacBook’s CPU performance at 71% of the price; in India at ₹229900 vs ₹159990, the Huawei wins on value because it offers 32GB RAM and lighter weight for ₹70k less.
