HUAWEI is set to expand its tablet lineup in the Philippines with the upcoming launch of the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025). Designed for productivity and creativity, the device brings PC-like performance, a PaperMatte display for eye comfort, and enhanced note-taking and art tools.
With features aimed at students, remote professionals, and digital creatives, the MatePad 11.5 (2025) is positioned as a versatile device for both work and play.
PC-Like Experience for Productivity on the Go
The HUAWEI MatePad 11.5 (2025) introduces a PC-like experience in a lightweight tablet form. It comes with a redesigned HUAWEI Smart Keyboard, featuring a clip-on structure, detachable design, and 1.5mm key travel for smoother typing. Function keys are included to replicate laptop-level usability.
The tablet also supports the PC-level WPS Office suite, providing access to full-featured spreadsheet formulas, dynamic presentation animations, and a desktop-style interface. Combined with the Smart Keyboard, the system allows users to switch easily between tablet and PC modes.
To enhance multitasking, the device integrates an upgraded Floating Multi-Window feature, allowing up to three window ratios. Users can view documents, research, and take notes simultaneously on the 11.5-inch display.
PaperMatte Display with Eye Protection
A standout feature of the MatePad 11.5 (2025) is its PaperMatte Display, built with nano-level etching and magnetron nano optical coating. This design minimizes glare and reflections, making the screen usable even in direct sunlight or brightly lit rooms.
The display also incorporates circularly polarized light technology, mimicking natural light to reduce eye strain. Certifications from TÜV Rheinland and SGS cover low blue light, flicker-free performance, and low visual fatigue.
In terms of visuals, the screen offers a 2456 x 1600 resolution and a 600-nit peak brightness, ensuring clarity for reading, writing, and media consumption.
Enhanced Note-Taking and Creative Tools
The MatePad 11.5 (2025) pairs with the HUAWEI M-Pencil (3rd Generation) to deliver a more natural handwriting and drawing experience. The upgraded HUAWEI Notes app introduces AI Handwriting Enhancement for neater digital notes, as well as customizable features like themed covers and stickers.
The app also expands its brush selection, offering tools such as a 2B pencil, felt-tip pen, and calligraphy brush for a more personalized writing or sketching experience.
For artists and hobbyists, the tablet comes with GoPaint, HUAWEI’s dedicated painting app. With a wide variety of brushes and textures, it transforms the MatePad 11.5 into a portable digital canvas for professional-level illustration.
Portability and Battery Life
The device maintains a slim and lightweight build, measuring 6.1mm thin and weighing 515 grams. Available in Space Gray and Violet, the all-metal unibody offers both durability and portability.
A 10,100mAh battery powers the MatePad 11.5 (2025), capable of delivering up to 14 hours of continuous video playback. It supports 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge, which restores full power in approximately 94 minutes. The M-Pencil also charges wirelessly via magnetic attachment.
