The MateBook D 16 and MatePad Pro 13.2 are the latest in what seems to be a fine-tuning of devices to take the Harmony OS ecosystem to the next level. They continue to have robust interconnectivity with Super Device and SuperHub features. This feature continues to bridge the interconnectivity gap between devices to supercharge productivity and creativity.

The new Huawei MateBook D16 comes with configurations supporting up to a 13th-generation Intel Core i9 processor with Intel IRIS Xe graphics. It comes with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The 16-inch FullView display is the hallmark of a laptop focused on bridging that gap between productivity and creativity. Huawei is looking to help you get more done with a screen with a 16:10 golden aspect ratio. It’s even got low blue light certification for those long work sessions. Huawei has even upped the ante when it comes to cooling with dual-fin fans that are both quiet and better at cooling.

The new MatePad Pro 13.2 bolsters Huawei’s lineup of tablets with one of the slimmest tablets ever. Coming in at only 3.4mm, the MatePad Pro 13.2 packs a punch in the slimmest form factor ever! While Huawei remains mum on the processor in the MatePad Pro 13.2, its 13.2-inch screen and 94% screen-to-body ratio make it stand out. Huawei is also incorporating Glass Fibre in the rear cover of the tablet; this provides added scratch and impact resistance.

The tablet is built for both entertainment and work with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 2880×1920 pixel resolution, and support for accessories like the M-Pencil Smart Keyboard. Underneath the flexible OLED display is a six-speaker audio system with 4 subwoofers and 2 tweeters. The tablet is also the first to support Near Link in the M-Pencil.
