Huawei has reportedly hung physical posters teasing its second-gen MatePad Pro up around its domestic market ahead of its imminent launch. They depict a high-end slate with slim enough bezels, not to mention screen contents seemingly lining up with those from earlier HarmonyOS-related leaks. The device might also sell alongside a new keyboard dock and a compatible stylus.

A Weibo user has posted a photo of what looks like a real-life poster for the Huawei MatePad Pro 2, despite the fact this tablet will not be revealed in full until tomorrow (June 2, 2021). It depicts a slate that could indeed have the ~12-inch form-factor predicted for the upcoming device, and suggests that it will come in either black or an almost khaki-like green.

The alleged teaser (which also seems to support M-Pen compatibility in the new slate's display) may also contain a preview of the Pro 2's long-hyped HarmonyOS-based desktop, Mac-inspired dual dock hinted at in earlier leaks and all. The new UI also now seems to have scope for numerous handy widgets.

Given that 1 of those shown in the new "poster" seems to be for call management, this might confirm projections that the MatePad Pro 2 comes with the option of 5G connectivity. Finally, the tablet might be about equal to its predecessor in terms of bezels, but does have a new, rectangular camera hump. Then again, the number of lenses involved is difficult to make out in this new leak.
