Our Verdict

Ipad Mini (2024) vs Matepad Pro 12 6 (2021)

The Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6 wins on display with its 12.6-inch OLED panel versus the iPad mini’s 8.3-inch LCD, making it 4.3 inches larger with superior contrast and color depth. Artists and note-takers should choose the iPad mini (2024) for its Apple Pencil Pro support, 256GB storage, and 120Hz refresh rate, enabling precise drawing and seamless note-taking on the go. Professionals needing a large screen for multitasking, video editing, or document review should pick the MatePad Pro for its 12.6-inch 2560x1600 OLED display and 512GB storage, despite lacking stylus support and heavier 609g weight. In UAE at AED 2350 vs AED 2199, the MatePad Pro is better because its 4.3-inch larger OLED screen delivers superior media immersion; in India at ₹54999 vs ₹49999, the MatePad Pro wins on value because its double the storage and larger screen justify the ₹5000 difference despite no stylus support.
