This is the coolest-looking router I’ve ever tested, and it’s got specs to match

Recently, I woke up to a message from our editorial team asking if I’d like to test a new router from HUAWEI. That was all I knew, and while I’m no stranger to networking gear, the only thing I could be sure of was getting my hands on a HUAWEI router, which would very likely be a good-looking, premium model… but I had no idea what I was in for.

The HUAWEI Wi-Fi Mesh X3 Pro () arrived at my doorstep about a week later, and this thing looks incredible — just look at it. As someone who lives in a mountain town, the light-up summit is very fitting. My cabin has never looked cooler, and I found out it is also a pretty competitive router, with awesome capabilities and features.
