The MateBook D 15 Intel (2021) (Matebook D 15 Series) 256GB / 8GB is Huawei Test's 2020 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 16.9 x 357.8 x 229.9 ( = 0.67 x 14.09 x 9.05 in) display, the Intel Core i5-1135G7 4c/8t 4 x 2.4 - 4.2 GHz, 43 W PL2 / Short Burst, 31 W PL1 / Sustained, Tiger Lake-UP3 chipset. At AED 999 in the UAE and ₹24,990 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The MateBook D 15 (2021) excels with its Intel Core i5-1135G7 and Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 80EUs, delivering smooth multitasking and light creative work thanks to quad-channel LPDDR4X-3733 RAM and efficient Tiger Lake architecture. Battery life reaches 7–8 hours under moderate use, aided by the 42Wh pack and low-power design. It’s suited for students and office workers needing reliable Windows 11 performance for web browsing, spreadsheets, and video calls. The fingerprint reader and USB-C PD charging add convenience. Its weakness is thermal throttling: sustained CPU loads above 31W cause performance drops, limiting prolonged rendering or compilation tasks. Storage is a slow SATA SSD, not NVMe, slowing file transfers. In UAE at AED 999, it’s good value because it outperforms budget AMD rivals in single-core tasks. In India at ₹24990, it’s overpriced—similar Ryzen 5 laptops with NVMe storage and better cooling exist for the same cost.
