Huawei has begun rolling out the latest HarmonyOS 4.2 update for its MatePad Pro tablets, specifically the MatePad Pro 13.2 and MatePad Pro 11 models from 2024, currently available in China. This new update aims to make the tablets easier to use and more secure.
Users need at least 8GB of free storage to install the update, which is version 4.2.0.208. The tablets must be already operating on earlier versions like 4.0.0.157 or 4.2.0.202 to be eligible for the upgrade.
The HarmonyOS 4.2 update brings several noticeable improvements. It makes the tablet’s gestures and animations smoother, which should make using the device feel more fluid. The update also introduces a feature that changes the background look of the control menu as you use it, adding a nice touch to the visual experience.
Another significant addition is the new storage compression feature. This helps free up space on the device by compressing files and apps that aren’t used often, without losing any data. The update also makes switching between apps faster and improves the overall stability of the tablets.
For Wi-Fi connections, there’s now a feature that lets users choose whether the tablet should automatically connect to new or previously used networks. On the security front, Huawei has added a way to block ads in apps with a simple shake of the device, and better protection against harmful software.
