Cinebench:

To measure the CPU performance of this laptop, I used Cinebench R15 in order to get a comparison of how well the CPU performs against other similar laptops.

The score that was achieved by the Huawei Matebook X Pro sits at 493cb – pretty much as expected for a quad-core Intel U-series (ultra low power) processor.

Storage:

To test the raw speed of a storage device in the laptop, I used CrystalDiskMark. This uses a test file to read or write the data from the storage drive. I tested it by using the 1GB default file size.

For storage, the Matebook X Pro has a 512GB NVMe PCIe SSD. Its read speed came in at 2859.1 MB/s – an impressive result – but the write speed does lag well behind, coming in at under 500 MB/s.
