Huawei MatePad 11 price and availability

The 128GB storage model of the huawei matepad new 11 costs 349.99 in the UK, which translates to around $490 or AU$660; But it looks like the tablet will only be sold in Europe.

The MatePad 11 is reasonably priced for a mid-range device – by the way, Apple’s 2020 iPad 10.2 model costs 429GB / £429 / AU 128 649 for 128GB, while you have to pay £629 (about $830). la, AU$1,150)).) The 128GB version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE is similar. For example, the price of the MatePad 11 is very competitive.

Design

The Huawei MatePad 11 feels more like an ‘iPad Pro’ than an ‘iPad’, thanks to its slim bezels and slim body, and it’s quite slim compared to other much cheaper Android tablets, although it’s not a big difference from them.

You’ll find the device’s front camera on the top bezel, with the MatePad in landscape orientation, which is handy for video calls. In this position, there is a volume rocker on the left side of the top edge, while the power button can be found along the top of the left edge. While the MatePad 11 has a USB-C port on the right end, there’s no 3.5mm headphone jack. This can be an unpleasant experience for those who prefer corded cans.

Display

In the screen part, Huawei MatePad 11 really sets itself apart from the competition. The display looks much better than you’ll find in competitors at the same price point, with a Huawei tab at the top for gaming and viewing certain media.

As the name suggests, the MetPad’s screen has a diagonal of 11 inches – well, 10.95 inches to be specific, but who counts 0.05 inches? This is an LCD panel, which makes it easy to see in direct sunlight, although it doesn’t show the same ‘real’ contrast or dark colors as an OLED screen. This is the only weak point of the screen.

The 2560 x 1600 resolution is pricey but the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 has the same size and higher resolution than any other comparable tablet from the company. The refresh rate is 120Hz, which means the image is updated 120 times per second – twice as fast as the 60Hz you get on most budget tablets. 120Hz is a premium feature that you won’t find in many of the MatePad’s competitors.

As a result, the speed looks somewhat smoother, which can be noticed when you scroll through social networks or play games.

Accessory

The Huawei MatePad 11 is compatible with the company’s M-Pen stylus, similar to Samsung’s S Pen or Apple Pencil, which can be used to take notes or sketch depending on the application. In most regions, this accessory is sold with the tablet; however, we have not tested the interceptor with this tool, so we cannot comment on its usefulness.

Glasses, performance, and cameras

Inside the Huawei MatePad 11 is the Snapdragon 865, which is the best Android chipset of 2020. While this doesn’t compare to the next 870 or 888 iterations from 2021, the difference in processing power will be negligible. for most people.

When we put this tablet through the Geekbench 5 benchmark test, it returned an average multi-core score of 3323 – just behind the Lenovo Legion Phone Duel 3335, which uses the Plus version of the 865, and from the Xiaomi Mi. 10, use 865.

Battery life

The Huawei MatePad 11 has quite an impressive battery life for a tablet. While its 7,250mAh power pack doesn’t look very impressive on paper, we did notice that the device was quite likely to stop charging.

Huawei has described the MetPad’s battery life as ‘twelve hours of video playback’ – a statistic that doesn’t make much sense for most people who haven’t watched the live video for half a day. However, it does tell us that if you use this medium for less intensive work, you will probably get longer battery life from the device.
