HUAWEI SOUND® makes its debut with HUAWEI MateBook 14s to bring an enjoyable audio experience. A quad speaker array is included on the new laptop, consisting of two tweeters and two woofers that produce powerful bass, and crisp trebles. The speakers support Huawei's Sound Field Reproduction algorithms to create high quality sounds coming from each side.

Four microphones sitting on the edges provide sound pickup from a distance of up of 5 metres[2]. The AI noise cancellation technology makes every sound crystal clear. The HUAWEI MateBook 14s comes with the industry's first Personal Voice Enhancement technology[3] to eliminate ambient noise whilst picking up the user's voice, so they can be heard loud and clear in calls or meetings.

The innovative tactile keyboard offers a comfortable and enjoyable typing experience. With 1.5mm key travel and Huawei's proprietary Soft-landing Design, the keyboard provides tactile feedback and makes typing with HUAWEI MateBook 14s a comfortable experience, even for an extended session.
