Display
The MatePad Pro 12.2-inch is Huawei's newest flagship tablet, aimed at providing a great user experience with a focus on creativity and productivity. The device is equipped with a Tandem OLED PaperMatte display and comes with 2,000 nits brightness. The display features an anti-sparkle and nanoscale anti-glare tech that protects your eyes with a paper-like visual experience.
But that's not all. The device has SGS Low Visual Fatigue 2.0 Premium Performance Certification, TÜV Rheinland Reflection-Free Certifications, and TÜV Rheinland Full Care Display 3.0 Certification, so you can easily stare at it for hours with minimal eye strain.
It's lightweight (508 g) and thin (5.5 mm) and comes in either Golden Silk or Black color.

The device also comes with the Huawei Glide Keyboard, which features a 2-in-1 stylus, which can be charged on the keyboard.
Creativity
Creatives can enjoy a plethora of digital creation tools, including Splatter brushes and Fluid brushes in the device's GoPaint app. For example, the Splatter brushes allow you to create an ink splatter (if you hover the stylus about 12mm above the tablet screen and tap it twice). You can also include realistic textures with the brushes to make your creation even fancier. 8K ultra-large canvas is supported by the FangTian Painting Engine 2.0, which ensures you get all the pro-grade tools to express yourself artistically.
Battery life and charging
The Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2-inch comes with support for Huawei's 100W SuperCharge, which is capable of filling the tablet's 10,100mAh battery from zero to 100% in under an hour (55 minutes, to be precise).
You can also enjoy a Power Conserve mode that can make the tablet stay on standby for up to 380 days (yep, that's more than a year!).
