5 best features of the Huawei MatePad

2K Display

1. 2K Display - It has a 10.40inch IPS screen with 2000 x 1200 resolution at 224 ppi. It has ample size providing great screen real estate for working as well as enjoying your favorite movies, tv show, and games. You can also rely on it for some quick photo edits and digital painting as well since it has M-Pencil support.

Huawei MatePad still has a premium design at a mid-range price

2. Premium design and build - It has a metallic body that provides a premium feel as well as durability. It is available in Midnight Grey for a classic yet trendy look. The materials used also give it ample heft to maintain a substantial grip while holding it. It may be a midrange MatePad Pro sibling but there are no compromises in this department.

3. Performance - It has a 2.27GHz Kirin 810 octa-core processor with DaVinci NPU, Mali-G52 MP6 GPU with GPU Turbo, 4GB LPDDR4X RAM, 64GB expandable storage, and a 7,250mAh battery with 18W fast charging. This specs sheet is a very good one. It can provide fast performance both in work and play situations. The huge battery will also provide you enough juice to last the whole day.

4. 4x Harman Kardon speakers - Along with the 2K display, the Huawei MatePad also has 4 Harman Kardon-tuned speakers. These speakers should be great for listening to music as well as watching your fave shows.

It also has a quad-mic setup which is ideal for video calls and recordings.

5. Competitive pricing - PHP 20,990. That is the price you have to pay to get the Huawei MatePad. That is competitive considering you are getting a tablet with a premium design, 2K display, great specs, dual-band WiFi, 700MHz 4G LTE, and 4x Harman Kardon speakers.
