Earlier this year, Huawei updated its popular 11.5-inch PaperMatte tablet and gave it access to its proprietary GoPaint artist app.
12-inch versus 11.5-inch?
To one-up itself, the company decided to launch another PaperMatte tablet with a display that’s half an inch larger, and a body that’s 0.2mm thinner. Introducing: the Huawei MatePad 12 X PaperMatte Edition.

This tablet has all the perks you’d already expect from the 11.5-inch version that came out earlier. It has the same second-generation PaperMatte display for added clarity (at a 2,800 x 1,840 pixels resolution), the same access to Huawei Notes and GoPaint, and compatibility with the Huawei M-Pencil stylus (optional). Even the processor (a Huawei Kirin T92B) and battery capacity (10,100 mAh) are identical.
