The HUAWEI MatePad Pro 12.2 has just been launched. The MatePad Pro sports a 12.2-inch dual-layer QHD+ (2.8K resolution) OLED display. The panel also has a refresh rate of 144Hz and 2,000 nits of peak brightness.

HUAWEI explains that their new dual-layer panel technology improves the lifespan of the screen three-fold, bringing 33% more power-drawing efficiency.

It also features Fangtian Panting Engine 2.0. This supports 8K canvases and 500+ layers while retaining clean strokes at 120fps. In addition, the display has a PaperMatte technology option, supporting the third generation M-Pencil with ultra-low latency.

For its chipset, HUAWEI has yet to give details. However, it’s presumed to be a modified version of the Kirin 9010 from the Pura 70 line. It will come with configurations up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage.

Optics consist of a 13-megapixel shooter with AF paired with an 8-megapixel wide-angle camera. At the front, it will be equipped with an 8-megapixel camera as well.

The tablet will pack a 10,100mAh battery with 100W of fast charging support via USB Type-C. Connectivity-wise, it has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, GNS, Beidou, Galileo, and QZSS.

The HUAWEI MatePad Pro 12.2 will run on HarmonyOS 4.2. This offers AI-powered tools like the Celia app, its document and info assistant, and an AI Writer.

Other features consist of a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, quad speakers, and microphones with HUAWEI Sound.

Prices start at CNY 4,299 (~PHP 34.6K) with 12GB/256GB. There’s also a 12GB/512GB variant priced at CNY 4,799 (~PHP 38.6K).

The highest storage configuration for the device is called the HUAWEI MatePad Pro Gold Edition with 16GB/1TB. This is priced at CNY 8,299 (~PHP 66.9K).

The MatePad Pro even has PaperMatte Edition devices coming in. The base model with 12GB/256GB is priced at CNY 4,899 (~PHP 39.4K). The 12GB/512GB variant is priced at CNY 5,399 (~PHP 43.5K). You can also get this with a Keyboard and Pen for CNY 6,999 (~PHP 56.4K).

The highest configuration of the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 12.2 PaperMatte Edition is priced at CNY 6,699 (~PHP 53.9K). These devices are slated to launch next week on August 13, 2024 in China.

We’ll let readers know once HUAWEI mentions anything about their availability in the Philippines or other markets.
