Third-party reviews

What we like about Huawei Matepad Pro 5G (8GB + 512GB)

  • High-quality, bright 10.8-inch display with slim bezels and 90% screen-to-body ratio
  • Fast and smooth performance powered by the Kirin 990 5G chipset
  • Long-lasting battery life (up to 12-14 hours of video playback)
  • Support for both 15W wireless charging and unique 7.5W reverse wireless charging
  • Excellent quad-speaker audio system tuned by Harman Kardon
  • Lightweight, sturdy magnesium alloy frame with a premium feel
  • Useful professional accessories like the M-Pencil and Smart Magnetic Keyboard

What we don't like about Huawei Matepad Pro 5G (8GB + 512GB)

  • Lack of Google Mobile Services (GMS), meaning no official Gmail, YouTube, or Play Store
  • Restricted third-party app ecosystem even with AppGallery and sideloading workarounds
  • Absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack
  • No expandable storage (no microSD card slot)
  • Occasional software issues such as lack of HD streaming support for apps like Netflix due to DRM
  • Punch-hole camera in the display can sometimes interfere with on-screen buttons

Verdict

The Huawei MatePad Pro 5G (8GB + 512GB) is a high-performance 10.8-inch tablet featuring a 2K QHD IPS display with a 90% screen-to-body ratio and 2560 x 1600 resolution. Powered by the Kirin 990 5G chipset and a 16-core Mali-G76 GPU, it offers robust multitasking capabilities and seamless 5G connectivity. Key characteristics include a 7,250 mAh battery supporting 40W SuperCharge, 27W wireless charging, and 7.5W reverse wireless charging, alongside a quad-speaker system tuned by Harman Kardon. Main pros are its lightweight 492g portable design, vibrant DCI-P3 cinematic color gamut display, and innovative features like Multi-screen Collaboration with Huawei smartphones. However, significant cons include the lack of pre-installed Google Mobile Services (GMS), which restricts access to the Google Play Store and certain specialized apps, and the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
