I got my Huawei Matebook X Pro a few days ago and really like it. Here is a mini review from a macbook air perspective and let me know any questions.
I purchased the Matebook X Pro for 1350 from Microsoft with the student discount. Build: It is a very sturdy laptop and fits perfectly in a backpack. Trackpad: It feels just like the MacBook Air....

Build: It is a very sturdy laptop and fits perfectly in a backpack.
Trackpad: It feels just like the MacBook Air.
Keyboard: Great typing. Switches are very similar to the MacBook Air but their noise is lower pitched.
Screen: The screen is great and I love the thin bezels.
Software: No bloat besides the driver manager.
Gaming: People underestimate the mx150. It runs pubg at a playable 40fps at mostly low and a few medium settings and fortnite at 60 FPS
with medium settings. I would never use it a a primary gaming machine, but it would be very useful for lan party’s.
Battery life: average
Dislikes: It can get very loud when gaming.
Overall, It feels like the spiritual successor to my MacBook Air in design and size. It has a fantastic display and build quality and it is priced competitively. If you are willing to pay a premium for build quality and portability then I would definitely get this laptop.
I have never done a Reddit review before so ask any questions that I left out.
