Specifications

Chipsets

The Huawei MatePad Pro utilizes the Kirin 9000E octa-core processor as its main computational component, that is based on a 5G modem. Huawei has also touted the MatePad Pro as being the first tablet in the world to have 5G. The Kirin 990 CPU provides high performance, whilst conserving battery-life. Additionally, a 7nm+ processing node, based on EUV and FinFET technology, is integrated into the aforementioned CPU. For graphic rendering, the MatePad Pro exploits the Mali G76-MP16 GPU. Moreover, an NPU (Neural Processing Unit) found in the MatePad Pro acts as an artificially intelligent powered processor that further increases the tablet's performance, efficiency, and battery-life.

Display

According to Huawei, the MatePad Pro has a 10.8 in (270 mm) inch quad high-definition liquid crystal display. The display has the ability to increase its brightness up to 540 nits. Moreover, the display measures 2560×1600 and boasts 16 million colors on a 16:10 aspect ratio. Also, if measured accurately, the screen-to-body ratio measures approximately ~90%, per Huawei's lab tests. Unlike the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 series and Galaxy S21 series, the tablet does not support a 120 Hz refresh rate, rather it utilizes a standard 60 Hz refresh rate.[6]

Storage

For ROM storage sizes, the MatePad Pro comes in a 128, 256 and 512 GB variant, with Huawei's Proprietary Nano Memory card acting as the second storage option, which can be expanded up to 256 GB. Either 6 or 8 GB of RAM (type LPDDRX4) is available for the MatePad Pro.[7]

Batteries

All hardware components of the device are powered by a non-removable 7,250mA·h Li-Polymer battery, that can support wireless charging. Also, the tablet is capable of lasting up to 10.8 hours on a single charge.[7]

Connectivity

Dual-band Wi-Fi with Wi-Fi direct is supported on the device, alongside the specifications for 802.11a/b/g/n/ac networks. In terms of charging, the MatePad Pro can support the following: fast wired charging of up to 40W; wireless charging of up to 27W; and reverse wireless charging of up to 7.5W. The tablet is able to transfer data via a USB-C 3.1 cable, which can be reversed. Along with the standard 2G, 3G and 4G LTE networks, the MatePad Pro can support sub-6 GHz 5G networks. In such networks, the theoretical peak download speed can reach 2.3 Gbit/s, and the theoretical upload speed can reach 1.25 Gbit/s. Additional connections include: GPS; GLONASS; and Bluetooth 5.1.[7]

Sensors

A standard gyroscope, digital compass, proximity sensor, and an accelerometer are used to measure orientation and direction, navigation, detection of nearby objects, and the measurement of proper acceleration, respectively.[8][9]

Sound

No 3.5mm headphone jack is available on the MatePad Pro. However, Huawei did install a four-channel speaker sound system, which is tuned by Harman Kardon and utilizes HiSten's 6.0 3D software. All speakers are stereo and offer surround sound quality. Five circumferential microphones enable a 360° noise cancellation, ensuring that vocal audio comes out crisper and louder.[10]

Front camera

The 13 MP front camera is in the form of a punch-hole. It has an aperture of f/2.0 and is able to support HDR. It can record videos at 30 frames per second in Full HD (1080p) resolution.[11][7]

Software

Due to the ripple effect that the China–United States trade war caused on Chinese companies, Huawei halted operations for the pre-installing of Google Services on their latest devices, and so, started promoting the use of their own software, namely, EMUI and Huawei Mobile Services (HMS).[12] The MatePad Pro comes with EMUI 10.1 based on the source code of Android 10, and offers a new Always On Display, a replacement assistant for the Google Assistant named Celia and a new video chat application called Huawei Meetime. The software also recognizes and supports air gestures that are made by the user with the re-designed M-Pencil (similar to that of Samsung's S-Pen). The tablet supports multitasking of up to two apps and is capable of downloading desktop applications like Firefox, which would not readily be supported nor available on a tablet or smartphone.[13][14] Huawei has also started pre-installing, promoting and emphasizing use of their new app distribution platform called the 'Huawei AppGallery' on their products that lack Google Play.[15][16]
