MacBook Pro 16 (M3 Pro) vs MateBook X Pro (2024)

The Apple MacBook Pro 16 with M3 Pro’s 18-core GPU outperforms the MateBook X Pro’s Intel Arc 8-core iGPU in sustained GPU workloads, while its 27W sustained power draw ensures quiet, fanless operation under load versus the MateBook’s 45W PL1 thermal demands. Choose the MacBook Pro if you edit 8K video with Final Cut Pro—its 24GB RAM and 512GB SSD handle large timelines efficiently, and its 21-hour battery life lasts through full workdays. Pick the Huawei MateBook X Pro if you run Windows-only apps like AutoCAD or need 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD for multitasking with large datasets, plus its 980g weight makes it the lightest 14-inch premium laptop available. In UAE at AED 8999 vs AED 6499, the Huawei wins on value because it offers double the storage and RAM for 28% less cost; in India at ₹224900 vs ₹159990, the Huawei wins on value because it delivers 1TB storage and 32GB RAM at 29% lower price despite lower GPU performance.
