Very nice, reminds me of the ProDisplay XDR (a little) but looks very tidy. I like the lack of branding on the front and the menu navigation is very cool.
Very nice, may pick this up for my home office. I checked and the works laptop should be able to run it. I plan to buy a new computer for myself so will use it for that, I have to have lots of windows open for my work so this aspect ratio could do well with that.
Nice! How does it compare with the Acer Concept D CP3271UV that you also tested? Looking for something for editing medium format camera pics, as well as documents (word/excel/PowerPoint) from an older MacBook Pro - will I need a magnifying glass to read the text on folder names/icons etc? :)
If budget isn't a problem, then I'd choose the Acer. Although it's not a high resolution, it's far superior in colour and more designed for professional work. That's not to say the Huawei isn't great, it is, just the Acer is on another level. You could always scale the Huawei resolution up to make things easier to read.
Hey Jordan, when I use the HDMI cable it seems to crop in from the sides on my MBP, however when I use the USBC it fills it normally, do you have any suggestions why?
I'm having trouble connecting my brand new macbook pro M1 Max to this monitor(also purchased new for this purpose) via the USB-C on the side. I've tried everything and it will not connect, only charge. Is it possible that I need a thunderbolt 4 cable to use as a monitor? I thought so but you're using the USB-C out of the box no problem. Please help!
@@jordanash Yep it has 3 Thunderbolt 4 ports that should all work for this reason. Would you expect the USB-C that comes with the monitor to work fine in this case usually? I'm reading also that it could be an issue with Monterey favouring Apple displays and causing problems with others. Thanks!
Ah okay, no issue there then. Yes definitely, it should be rated for the maximum resolution is supports. You could try emailing Huawei if you don't have any luck. No worries!
@@jordanash Update: Thunderbolt 4 USB-C cable fixed it for me, worked straight away! I guess Apple want to try and convince people to buy their £130 cable but mine was £20 from Amazon. Thanks again :)
This is my favourite aspect ratio but the DPI is too small. I'd be happier with a 30" 2560x1600 display, like the Apple ones of yesteryear. Also, no Vesa mount is going to turn a lot of people away. The I/O is nice but not necessary IMO, but in any case the stand should be detachable leaving an HDMI connector available just to connect the panel.
Yeah, it is a shame you couldn't mount it. I guess Huawei have designed this to be a used as a single display, for which the majority of people wouldn't use a mount.
Hi Jordan, hopefully you'll be the one answering my question in regards to this monitor (other reviewers of the MateView doesn't seem to care to answer anymore...) Do you think this monitor would be a good upgrade for someone who mainly does web browsing, document editing, gaming and 3D modeling? I have never had a monitor better than my current 5 years old, 75Hz, 21:9, 1080p, and I'm unsure if going from 75Hz back to 60Hz would be bad or not for me. My current computer is running a Ryzen 5 1600X with a 1080 Hybrid FTW GPU, I know it is aging, but I am pretty sure it would be sufficient enough to push 60fps on the games I play (ARK: Survival Evolved and 7 Days to Die and Minecraft) to the MateView.
Hey Eric! Yes, definitely. This is a well rounded display and would work well for those applications. I don't think you'll notice the transition from 75hz to 60 to be honest, if you were going from 120 to 60 you would though. The only thing I would say, is where this is a high resolution, you might need to lower the resolution of your games.
@@jordanash Thanks for the reply ! Do you think it is worth the money (almost 900$CAD) or do you think I should wait for some holiday special deals? I feel like it is a bit pricey personally at that price range, but then again, I don't have anything to compare that monitor to, and I haven't had the pleasure of using anything similar to help with my decision making.
No problem. $900 is steep I think, I'd wait personally. I think it retailed at £550 over here, but there were already offers making it half of the price in the states.
@@jordanash I'm hunting a 27 qhd monitor. Bought a gigabyte g27qc but don't like the curve so going back. Gonna try the Benq ex2780q. What's your go to monitor?
@@jordanash Casual gaming. Benq just arrived, gonna see how it is. Got it also because of built-in in speakers and subwoofer, so more clean desk space.
I use a 1660 for my 4K monitor for working/editing. Then play windowed games on medium. This isn't aimed toward gaming, so will it just be for productivity work?
@@jordanash That's the same card I'm getting. And yes, mostly productivity and some old games. So, in a nutshell, a 1660 would allow me to actually be able to see the 4k quality of the screen rather than 1080p?
Everyone says that Nintendo Switch Lite can never be projected into a bigger screen but since Huawei MateView can do USB-C connections, I'd like to connect my Nintendo Switch Lite with Huawei MateView via USB-C, once I buy both of them someday!
will that monitor work with xbox series s/x consoles ? I meant because of the aspect ratio will it display "full-screen" or with black bars on sides/top/bottom ?
Can you show the colors on this screen compared to an iMac, may be side to side comparison? That would be great. As a photographer I am interested in color accuracy. A lot of manufacturers say Delta < 2 but the colors are way off.
And the motherboard breaks down after two years in every unit. The repair costs ~ 250 USD which is half the price of this monitor. Shame on you, Huawei!

That's a good point, I didn't think of that!

Sounds great!
Hi Sir! Does it have a built-in camera? And can I use it for online class without connecting it to laptop or iPad?
Hey! Not on this model no, it's purely a monitor. You'll need an input device and webcam for that

I’m thinking of getting this as a second screen for the 24 inch iMac? Because I need more screen space to work from home
its good bro i just bought it yesterday really good pair with my m1 imac
@@ryjinvernaiz9425 thank you!!!
@@ryjinvernaiz9425 hope you’re doing great
Hi, what would your opinion be on the mateview vs dell ultra sharp vs lg ultrafine
Hey dude, bit of a problem being I've not used any of those. They're hard to get samples of too. You'd be better asking on a monitor forum
Hey Jordan, when I use the HDMI cable it seems to crop in from the sides on my MBP, however when I use the USBC it fills it normally, do you have any suggestions why?
Hey. It may be to do with the aspect ratio. I *think* HDMI only supports 16:9 and 21:9

Hmmm, that's odd. I take it your Macbook's USB C port supports display out? I know sometimes they've had specific monitor ports.

Dell still sells a 30" model at that resolution you are looking for.

I would probably get this for a dual monitor setup, but no vesa mount, I think is a deal breaker. Shame, I love the aspect ratio.
Yeah, unfortunately the base having the connections isn't great. I think this was built with only single use in mind
When will this be available in the United States? I desperately need one 😭.
Soon I would think
Hi. Will this work with M1 Mac mini?
Yeah, no problem at all
Nice, how much did this cost?
RRP is £549, but as I said in the video there's offers at the moment
@@jordanash I'm hunting a 27 qhd monitor. Bought a gigabyte g27qc but don't like the curve so going back. Gonna try the Benq ex2780q. What's your go to monitor?
Are you looking for a gaming one too? Because the Asus VG27AQ is fantastic for the price, cheaper too. I did a video on it too
@@jordanash Casual gaming. Benq just arrived, gonna see how it is. Got it also because of built-in in speakers and subwoofer, so more clean desk space.
Let me know what the speakers are like, I've found it rare to hear anything over "fine" on built it, this monitor being one of them
What GPU do you recommend so I can actually enjoy 4K in that monitor?
I use a 1660 for my 4K monitor for working/editing. Then play windowed games on medium. This isn't aimed toward gaming, so will it just be for productivity work?

that's gorgeous!
It is, I wish it didn't go back!

The switch lite USB-C port does NOT support video output. This won't work unfortunately
Is the stand aluminium or plastic?
Aluminum
It’s the screen covered in glass edge to edge?
No, it's matt. Anti glare as I said in the video
@Jordan Ash can you actually wirelessly project to Mateview from your Matebook laptop?
It has wireless projection for Matebook 16, and One hop for connecting a Huawei phone.
Can you use a keyboard and a mouse for this?
It's just a display, so you need a laptop or desktop too
Is this a all in 1 pc aswell
This is just a monitor. You can see me connect my laptop in the video
Does this monitor allows vesa mount?
I don't believe so, as all the connections are in the base
will that monitor work with xbox series s/x consoles ? I meant because of the aspect ratio will it display "full-screen" or with black bars on sides/top/bottom ?
It will black bar - 16:9 is the only ratio supported
the annoying thing is , HDMI only supports 50Hz...60Hz only available Via Type C and Mini DP
Hmmm, that sounds odd
I got another more bulky power adaptor, and the menu on the screen looks different lol.
That power adapter is that for?
@@jordanash Power the monitor? i mean in the package.
Oh for this? It's not too bad, I've seen far bigger adapters
Hur är bildkvalitén? Märks det att det är mindre ljust ute i kanterna eller har den nån bleed?
Det verkar ganska enhetligt överallt. Ingen blödning som jag märkte
Do you happen to know the dimensions of the box it comes in?
Not off hand but I can measure it when I'm back in the office on Tuesday, if you don't mind waiting?
@@jordanash That would be amazing! Thank you 🙏
No worries. At a guess it's about 35x90x50, something like that
It's 70x50x28. Can I ask why you want to know, I'm curious haha
@@jordanash I'm trying to figure out how I can fly home with this thing 😂
Why would any one buy a monitor that can't be height adjusted?
This is adjustable, but the 32" monitor I daily drive isn't height adjustable and that's fine
Can you show the colors on this screen compared to an iMac, may be side to side comparison? That would be great. As a photographer I am interested in color accuracy. A lot of manufacturers say Delta < 2 but the colors are way off.
This was only sent on loan, plus I don't have access to an iMac, nor the funds to buy one
And the motherboard breaks down after two years in every unit. The repair costs ~ 250 USD which is half the price of this monitor. Shame on you, Huawei!
Guessing you've had an issue with one, but I highly doubt *every* unit has a problem.
