Huawei also launched the MatePad Paper e-ink tablet which was ranked as one of the “Best of Mobile World Congress 2022.” This product from Huawei is quite unique as it doubles as both an e-book reader and a tablet.

The Huawei MatePad Paper packs a 10.3-inch grayscale display screen with a resolution of 1872 x 1404 pixels and 227 PPI pixel density. The e-ink display comes with added features such as an anti-glare and reflective screen that aids low-light use. It has moderate bezzles on three sides while the left edge is slightly wider to give it the appearance of an open book. The device features a screen-to-body ratio of 86.3%.

Under the hood, the MatePad Paper houses a Kirin 820E SoC up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage. The e-ink tablet boots HarmonyOS 2 bringing features such as the ability to easily establish a connection between the tablet and Huawei’s laptops, PCs, tablets, and phones.

Giving this tablet the feel of an actual notepad is the second generation M-Pencil which comes bundled with the machine. The screen is well responsive to the stylus as Huawei tweaked the sensitivity of the textured screen. The M-Pencil features 4096 Levels of Pressure Sensitivity and low latency of 26ms making tasks like taking notes, annotating, edit books and other documents fluid and natural.

The tablet comes with WiFi 6+, a fingerprint sensor embedded under the power button, and Bluetooth 5.2 support and crams a 3625mAh battery that can deliver up to 28 days of battery life on standby.
