The MatePad Pro 13.2 runs Huawei's HarmonyOS 4 software. Processing power comes from a cutting-edge in-house HiSilicon system-on-chip. Users can configure up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage.
Creative capabilities shine thanks to the all-new Huawei M-Pencil stylus. It enables over 10,000 levels of pressure sensitivity for smooth, precise drawing. The tablet also packs a custom antenna array improving Wi-Fi speeds.
Strong battery life of 11 hours per charge is aided by blazing fast 88W wired charging. Huawei claims a 0-85% top up takes only 40 minutes. Six integrated speakers provide an immersive entertainment experience.
Pricing in China starts around $710 for a 12GB/256GB model. However, Huawei has now confirmed a global launch event on December 12th, 2023 at Dubai. This points to an international release shortly after.
The MatePad Pro 13.2 seems positioned to compete with pro tablets like Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. Its giant OLED display, slim form factor, sensitive stylus, and HarmonyOS software could give it a unique edge.
