Huawei MateView Review: Remarkable Minimalist
Huawei has introduced a new member (monitor) to the market by releasing the MateView. The MateView comprises a 28.2-inch 3:2 ratio panel along with a wireless display functionality, 4K+ resolution, and an appealing minimalist design. Huawei added all of its best technologies in the MateView.
The 28-inch monitors are available in abundance in the market. And the market is well established with several highly competitive alternatives. But there aren’t so many 3:2 alternatives out there, so this can probably become the Huawei MateView’s niche. Let’s explore what our Huawei MateView monitor is going to offer us.
Its degree of integration is very high. The 4K + resolution, 3:2 ratio, and large screen of the MateView monitor are exclusively appealing from the front. The screen size of this monitor is 28.2 inches, along with a 3840×2560 pixels resolution. Plus, it has a very delicate sense.
As its ratio is high, the height is more than the traditional 4K screen, which is 3840×2160 pixels. The monitor area is also larger.
The screen-to-body ratio of the MateView display hits 94 percent. The right sides and top left are just 6mm, and the bottom area is a little broader, but just 9.3mm.
Its display is covered with an aluminum alloy frame. And it includes a polished surface frame that gives it the overall fine sand touch.
Huawei MateView magnetic rear case has a simpler structure. Unlike the Snap-on design, the magnetic suction type covers less space.
Which Devices Does the MateView Support?
Huawei has designed the MateView monitor in a way that supports all the standard ports. You can pair up your PC via Mini DisplayPort, HMDI, or USB-C port. All of these ports can be found on the backside of the PC, except the USB-C connectivity. The USB-C on the backside is simply used for power, whereas the side USB-C port gives screen functionality. Even though the display’s enhanced 3840 x 2560, 4K resolution, 3:2 ratio supports all three connectivity, MiniDP and USB-C will function at the full 60Hz. The MateView’s HDMI 2.0 bandwidth is confined to 50Hz at 3,840 x 2,560. And it doesn’t support FreeSync or G-Sync, which is, undoubtedly, a disappointment for the gamers.
The MateView also supports Wireless projecting with PCs, Windows, and laptops, as well as a few of the latest Huawei smartphones. The latter offers you the choice to operate Huawei’s EMUI Desktop mode. However, this alternative seems a little half-baked on its Android devices because EMUI doesn’t support the monitor’s full resolution. You know what, I was also confined at 3,240 x 2,160 while using the wireless screen feature for PC. There I found a considerable amount of lag that makes utilizing a mouse a real pain. The Huawei MateView monitor also supports DLNA casting for fast content playback.
Test Outcomes of the MateView Monitor
The company is offering a great deal on the MateView, considering its color, accuracy, and capabilities, as the company claims 98% of DCI-P3 color spacing with a DeltaE of less than two, along with the alternative for absolute sRBG space. Also, it comes with a color DeltaE of less than one. The MateView is a combination of the HDR400 certification and 500 nits of max brightness. Considering all the features, the MateView should be the most appealing display for every content type.
The MateView monitor has a full eye-catching display. The LCD backlight is so uniform, despite a small amount of low light in the corners of the monitor. Yet, vibrant colors look so realistic, but there’s no actual tint or discoloration noticeable anywhere on display. The monitor’s glossy finish offers a few reflections, even while turning up the brightness level to the max. The screen presets to about 190 nits but reaches a max of 500.
Well, the test result shows more about the qualities of the Huawei MateView monitor. Even though our team still provided acceptable color accuracy and indeed presented a broad DCI-P3 color space. But our model MateView didn’t follow the sub 2 DeltaE color error mentioned in Huawei’s official documents. The monitor’s green points are not only as accurate as its reds and blues, and the white is a bit on the warm side.
The sRGB color space is introduced a bit more precisely. Albeit, again we were unable to match the company’s touted color accuracy rating because the screen’s white balance is slightly on the warm side. Though, the white point improves a bit at increased brightness levels.
I have examined two panels. The first panel included a better white balance point. But it has almost the same color accuracy error. So, we can assume that the company’s choice of panels is not the most seamless.
But overall, I am very impressed with the Huawei MateView monitor.
Huawei has launched a display named MateView. This 28-inch monitor is a blend of several advanced technologies. Huawei’s latest flagship is worth checking out.
