Verdict

The Huawei MatePad 10.4 (2021) WiFi is a mid-range tablet featuring a 10.4-inch 2K FullView IPS display (2000 x 1200 resolution) and a Kirin 820 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. Its primary strengths include a sleek 7.45mm aluminum chassis, an immersive quad-speaker system tuned by Harman Kardon, and a long-lasting 7,250 mAh battery that supports up to 12 hours of local video playback. However, it suffers from a lack of integrated Google Mobile Services (GMS), meaning users must rely on the Huawei AppGallery or third-party APKs, and it lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack.
