There are several reasons to love the MatePad Pro - powerful innards, zippy performance and a gorgeous screen, all packed in a svelte form factor. It’s got all the makings of the best Android slates out right now, but an obstructed software experience means it won’t be for everyone.

But hands-on sessions and real life use are two quite different things. Huawei is still blocked off from Google apps, meaning that as soon as you wanted an app beyond what came pre-installed you’d become rather annoyed you weren’t using an Apple tablet, or any other Android tablet like Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S6. I expect the Huawei MatePad Pro 5G to end up like Huawei’s Mate 30 Pro flagship phone: respected for its tech, but not a good buy for anyone but the Huawei faithful.

That said, the specs and functionality of the MatePad Pro 5G are top-tier, and the design is stellar too. Given the fact tablets are less integral to day to day life than phones, the MatePad could come off better than the Mate 30 Pro. Kindle Fires have been Play Store free for generations and are still going, after all.

Euro pricing for the MatePad Pro is a little high, with the most affordable version dropping at around 549 Euros which translates to around Php 30.4K in our local currency. But always keep in mind that Euro pricing for Huawei products have historically been higher compared to their eventual pricing when they launch locally.

The case for 5G tablets is as yet, unproven, but by getting in early Huawei will certainly gain some fans. The lack of Google apps aside, this is a superb Android tablet.

There’s a lot to like about the MatePad Pro, from its classy (if slightly unimaginative) design to its seriously powerful hardware and well-designed add-ons. The issue comes with the apps that can take advantage of all this and while that can be a big issue with regular Android tablets, it’s even more of a problem without access to the Play Store.

ARM Mali-G76 MP16: Integrated graphics card based on the second generation of the Bifrost architecture. Uses 16 of the 20 possible clusters and according to ARM offers twice the performance per cluster than the old Mali-G72. It is used in the Kirin 990 5G and according to Huawei should be about 6% faster and 20% more efficient than a Adreno 640 in a Snapdragon 855.
Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

75%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
