Honor used the launch of the Honor Power 2 to quietly introduce two new tablets as well: the Honor Pad 10 Pro and the Honor Pad X10 Pro. The two tablets target very different audiences. 

The Pad 10 Pro is an expensive machine that delivers on productivity and entertainment, while the Pad X10 Pro is more of an education-focused device. 

Honor Pad 10 Pro

The Honor Pad 10 Pro comes with an 11.5-inch 2.8K LCD that supports a 144Hz refresh rate and the DCI-P3 color gamut. There’s also a Soft Light Edition that’s designed to feel more like reading paper. 

According to the company, the screen supports multiple eye-care technologies, including hardware-level low blue light, global DC dimming, defocus eye protection, and even an AI-powered sleep aid display.

Under the hood, the tablet runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultra, paired with a large 10,100mAh battery. Audio is handled by an eight-speaker system with spatial audio.

On the software side, the Pad 10 Pro supports PC-level WPS, desktop-style multitasking, advanced document editing, and even LaTeX formula editing and paper comparison. 

It also uses AI for document summaries, handwritten formula recognition, and voice recording synchronization. There’s a Magic Pencil 4s stylus support, too.

The Honor Pad 10 Pro starts at 2499 yuan (~$358) for the 12GB + 256GB version. You can also pair it with a stylus (Magic Pencil 4s) for an extra 399 yuan (~$58). Or the Soft Light Edition and stylus bundle is priced at 2699 yuan (~$385).

Honor Pad X10 Pro

The Honor Pad X10 Pro starts at a much lower 1499 yuan (~$215). It features an 11.5-inch 2.5K LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate, 100 percent sRGB coverage, and up to 400 nits of brightness. 

Like Pad 10 Pro, it is also available in a Soft Light Edition. 

The tablet uses a Snapdragon 685 processor, backed by an 8,300mAh battery with 35W fast charging. It has a four-speaker system and a lightweight all-metal unibody design, weighing just 475g. The color options include Mountain Gray and Sky Blue.

Where the Pad X10 Pro really differentiates itself is in software. It comes preloaded with K–12 learning resources, including courses from Beijing No. 4 High School, AI-powered homework tools, error correction, and remote parental management features. It also supports multi-screen collaboration, file sharing, and printing assistance.

The post Honor’s Pad 10 Pro and Pad X10 Pro offer Soft Light editions for longer screen use appeared first on Gizmochina.

An Honor official has confirmed that the company is putting its compact tablet plans on hold. The official recently shared a teaser for Honor’s upcoming tablet, the Pad X10 Pro, on Weibo.

In the comments, a user asked when Honor would release its next compact tablet. The official didn’t mince words, replying simply: “No more, it’s on hold.” Honor hasn’t explained why it made the decision.

The X series has previously had a fair share of compact tablets. The most recent model is the Honor Pad X7, which features an 8.7-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate.

Honor Pad X10 Pro is a bigger but affordable

Instead of another small tablet, Honor is moving ahead with the Pad X10 Pro, which is launching in China on January 5. The tablet sports a much larger display — likely around 11 inches — and supports stylus input.

Don’t expect it to be a premium device, though. Honor is positioning the Pad X10 Pro as a practical tablet for kids’ online classes or for showing videos to parents, not as a high-end productivity machine.

We also found a YouTube Shorts video showing the Pad X10 Pro in blue and silver. The tablet packs a single rear camera, while the front camera sits on the right bezel. Those bezels, by the way, are hard to miss in real-world shots.

The Pad X10 Pro will launch alongside the Honor Power 2 on January 5th. The latter is an Honor smartphone with the biggest battery in the industry. It packs a mammoth 10,080mAh cell, yet it is around 8mm thin.
