The Huawei MatePad Pro 10.8 (2019) 512GB is Huawei Test's 2020 tablet featuring a 10.8 inches, 338.2 cm2 (~86.5% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Kirin 990 (7 nm+) chipset. It comes with a 7250 mAh battery. At AED 1,299 in the UAE and ₹29,499 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Huawei MatePad Pro 10.8 (2019) delivers a stunning 10.8-inch 2560x1600 LCD panel with 16:10 aspect ratio and 60Hz refresh rate, offering sharp, vibrant visuals ideal for extended reading and video playback. Powered by the Kirin 990 chipset, it handles multitasking and media editing smoothly. It supports the M-Pencil stylus with low latency, making it viable for note-taking and light sketching. Its 7250 mAh battery ensures all-day use. The critical weakness is the absence of Google Play Services, forcing reliance on Huawei’s AppGallery and manual APK installs, which limits app availability and updates. In UAE at AED 1299, it’s worth it because the screen and performance justify the price despite the OS gap. In India at ₹29499, it’s overpriced — competitors offer similar screens with full Android and better app ecosystems at lower costs.
