The AD80 display is the first monitor from Huawei. We had it in the test.
Test conclusion
Test grade
3.4
satisfying
With a retail price of 159 euros, the Huawei Display AD80 is not one of the cheapest 24-inch monitors. Sure, customers shouldn’t ask too much from a monitor in this price range. But the AD80 display offered, at best, a decent picture quality with too low a brightness (267 cd / m²) and a much too low contrast. Another weak point is the sparse equipment. The better alternative is the equally expensive LG Electronics 24BN650Y-B. It offers significantly more features and better image quality? It is not for nothing that it is the current test winner among the 24-inch monitors with full HD resolution.
Low reflections on the display and on the screen frame
Cons
Low brightness
Low contrast
Somewhat poor color fidelity
Long response time
A.Aside from the Chinese market, Huawei’s smartphone division continues to look bleak: sanctions by the US government continue to prohibit Huawei from equipping Android phones with Google’s Play Store. Huawei smartphones are still technically among the best phones, but the selection of apps is limited. As a result, sales are falling dramatically and sales of smartphones are crumbling. Huawei is therefore looking for new sources of revenue. With the “MateBook” series, the Chinese have already proven that they not only build great smartphones, but also good laptops. And now Huawei is bringing its first monitor onto the market with the AD80 display. However, it did not convince in all test points in the test.

Huawei Display AD80 in the test: 24-inch device with IPS
The premiere on the monitor market is to set up an inexpensive entry-level model. The AD80 display belongs to the 24-inch monitor category. To be precise, it has a screen diagonal of exactly 23.8 inches (60.5 centimeters). The monitor shows websites, documents, photos, games and films in Full HD with 1920×1080 pixels, the frame rate is 60 Hertz. The panel used is not a cheap TN display, but an IPS screen. The promise: Compared to TN displays, IPS displays allow a particularly high viewing angle without any significant loss of color fidelity and contrast. That’s the theory.
An HDMI and a VGA connection are sufficient, but they are quite sparse for a monitor.
Dark and little contrast
That didn’t work out so well when testing the AD80 display. At 95.1 percent, the color fidelity was at an acceptable, but not a high level. On top of that, the contrast of 213: 1 was far too low, as was the maximum brightness of 267 candelas per square meter. In addition, the AD80 display allowed itself up to 29 milliseconds to change images. The Huawei screen can then add ugly streaks to fast action scenes in games and films. All in all, the image quality was only satisfactory.
The control buttons for the on-screen menu are located at the bottom of the display.
Sparse equipment
At best, however, the really sparse equipment is sufficient: Speakers? There is not any! Connections? A digital HDMI socket and an analog VGA connection must be enough. Adjustment options? The monitor can only be tilted. The Huawei display does not offer height adjustment or a rotatable screen (pivot function).
Very natural color rendering
Easy to use menu
Low brightness
Low contrast
Stingy when it comes to power consumption
At least the on-screen menu is quite easy to use. In addition, the Huawei display was stingy when it comes to power consumption: it only needs 18.9 watts for operation, 0.19 watts in standby ?? that is “very good”.
Particularly high image quality in full HD class
Versatile adjustable
