Huawei Matebook D14

[Ryan Innes]

Greetings, I'm going to be needing a new laptop/notebook for when I'm out of the office - the device won't be my daily driver.

I'm looking for something small 13-14" and Windows based, would love to get a Surface Pro 8 but not into paying the extortionist pricing in SA.

I've tried using an Android tab for the past year (Samsung S7 Fe) and it just the Office apps aren't where they need to be.

I see the Huawei Matebook D14 is on special until the 31st of Jan (R24999 - R14999). The only thing I don't like is the placement of the webcam (I do alot of virtual interviews).

Your thoughts on the machine?

That is in the mix, M1 still go for R19999 and sometimes drop to R17999.

The price is actually R13999 when applying the additional discount code (R1000)

 

[Ryan Innes]

Decided to go with the Matebook D14 - applied a 15% discount voucher which took R2,3k off the price vs the R1k discount voucher (tried to use them both at the same time).

Got the following gift bundle with it.

And my mistake it's the Matebook 14 not D14

That sounds like some stellar value, post your findings for us when it arrives.

Super impressed, order placed Monday 17:45, Delivered this morning at 09:28 JHB - CTN via Ram.

In addition to the discounted price mentioned above, I earned 54000 Huawei points which translates to R5,4k to spend in the Huawei store.

Funny enough traditional retail not runn the same discounts. Had a look at the same model at incredible corruption and it was still at R24999

Please post some pics & experiences as you go along.

The value addition on this deal is off the charts.

Will do so before the end of the week.

The deal ends on the 31st Jan, I presume they'll do another 15% discount off site wide on Monday the 30th.

Ok the info I found re points yesterday is incorrect, 100 points equals R1.

Still happy with the deal
