The lightweight chassis is accentuated by a streamlined design with curved edges to produce a sleeker look.
The small enhancements like the thinner bezels and recessed camera allow Huawei to further shrink the form factor of the laptop. With dimensions measuring at just 357.8×229.9×16.9mm, the MateBook D 15 is one of the smallest and lightest laptops. Underneath the anti-glare coating, the 15.6-inch 16:9 IPS panel supports a Full HD (1920×1080) resolution and a maximum opening angle of 178 degrees.
