KUALA LUMPUR: The new Huawei MatePad Pro pre-order starts today until April10 via https://shop.huawei.com/my/april2020-new-launches.html at the price of RM2,399. Available in Midnight Grey and Pearl White, the tablet features 8GB RAM and 256GB ROM.
DESIGN AND FEATURES
The 10.8-inch tablet sports a 16:10 display in an ultra slim body, with a tablet screen-to-body ratio at 90 percent (one of the highest in the industry) with ultra-narrow 4.9mm bezels surrounding its symmetrical, edge-to-edge display.
Its 16:10 2K QHD (2560×1600) panel supports the DCI-P3 cinematic colour gamut.
The panel has a pixel density of 280ppi for a better cinematic experience with crisp details and vibrant colours.
It has an ergonomic enclosure that ensures a comfortable hold, with a magnesium alloy frame that gives a light yet durable feel to it.
With multi-window support, this device allows multitasking, which means you can have a word processor on one side and a browser on for reference materials on the other.
Besides that, the MatePad Pro has an App-Multiplier which may come in handy to adapt to its various orientations as not every app supports a tablet in landscape mode and this feature uses the horizontal display to show two instances of the same app.
In terms of connectivity, the Huawei Share function will allow seamless collaboration between smartphones and tablets with multi-screen Collaboration. Users can control both devices from just one screen.
Besides the tablet, the tablet will also launch a variety of accompanying accessories to enhance the user experience.
To boost creativity, the MatePad Pro has compatible accessories--the Huawei M-Pencil, and the smart Magnetic Keyboard. Third party apps such as the Huawei Notepad, WPS Office and NEBO are also available with the tablet, allowing the user to draw, write and document the necessary without any fuss.

Under the hood of the MatePad Pro is the Kirin 990, which is supported by up to 8GB RAM and 256GB ROM to ensure smooth multitasking. A big 7250mAh battery ensures all-day usage.
