Will HUAWEI PaperMatte Tablets Make E-Ink Tablets a Thing of the Past?
E-ink tablets combine the versatility of traditional tablets and the comfortable glare-flee display of e-book readers. But they are still a compromise. The lack of color and unavoidable stutter make them unsuitable for videos or even many productivity scenarios. But there seems to be a far better option now. Huawei recently launched the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition and HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition. These PaperMatte Edition tablets are designed to cater to the needs of students and young professionals. The PaperMatte Editions introduce the innovative PaperMatte Display , providing an unprecedented paper-like viewing and writing experience, including eye protection and rich notetaking capabilities.

The PaperMatte Display: A True Paper Experience
The PaperMatte Display shows that Huawei has mastered delicately balancing vibrant visuals while eliminating glare. With no reflections on the screen to distract, your favorite eBooks, sketches, and videos come to life in a way that can be comfortably experienced in any setting.
Both the HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition and HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition feature a refreshing PaperMatte Display. The eye-soothing screen ensures an effortless viewing and writing experience. This makes learning, and working on a tablet more efficient, indoors or outdoors, in both bright and dim conditions.

Using nano-level anti-glare etching technology to form hundreds of millions of tiny structures on the PaperMatte Display’s mirror glass surface eliminates 97% of environmental light interference. Ideal for your entertainment, educational, and office needs, the multi-layer diffusion technology generates a soft and soothing view, while ensuring the screen stays consistently clear, bright, and even.
The PaperMatte Tablets have received TÜV Rheinland Reflection Free and industry-first SGS Low Visual Fatigue Premium Performance Certifications, which guarantee standout viewing performance in real-world conditions. The Low Visual Fatigue Premium Performance Certification is the highest certification developed by SGS to evaluate eye strain.
The PaperMatte Edition also reduces eye strain in users, being TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution) and Flicker-Free-certified. Both tablets boast a hardware solution that suppresses blue light and flickering emitted by screens, while also reducing the yellow tint. For an even more comfortable reading experience, you can turn on Colour e-Book Mode. With this feature, thousands of colors are displayed with meticulous accuracy, to produce a vibrant, immersive view.
Sketch and Draw Like Never Before
Imagine the sensation of a pencil gliding smoothly across a sheet of fine paper. The gentle rustle, the subtle resistance under the tip, and the crisp, dark lines left in its wake, creating a perfect harmony that helps you to put your ideas to paper. The PaperMatte Display captures this essence of writing with pen on paper. Writing with the M-Pencil on the PaperMatte Display gives you the feeling of journaling or sketching in a book.
The tablet gives you an immersive and sensory-rich experience, complete with tap sounds, rustling effects, texture, and paper-like resistance. These elements combine to elevate the overall writing experience. Moreover, the HUAWEI M-Pencil (2nd generation), fitted with a nylon elastomer nib and 2ms low delay, makes it all the more easy to sketch and draw. You can achieve a smoother handwriting experience by swapping the hard transparent nib for the soft white pencil nib.
But unlike writing on paper, your scribbles and sketches are no longer confined to the parchment. They can be edited, shared, and transformed with a simple tap. Both HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition and HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition offer HUAWEI Notes, a professional notetaking app that helps you record notes and illustrate ideas with the HUAWEI M-Pencil (2nd generation). With 15x canvas zoom, you can zoom in on the canvas up to 15 times to record your ideas in detail.
HUAWEI Notes on the PaperMatte Tablets also supports the split-screen mode notes feature, making it possible to view two notes side by side at the same time. This simplifies the process of sorting and organising notes. When getting ready for a meeting, you can use the split-screen feature to draft meeting outlines on one side while jotting down essential references on the other.
Super Device: Easier Cross-device Interactions
Both HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition and HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition offer a wide range of features to enhance office efficiency, including an Enhanced App Multiplier, and SuperHub for seamless content transfers. The SuperHub makes Cross-device content editing and sharing a breeze without the need for a third-party app. This feature eliminates barriers between your devices so that you can copy and paste a bunch of images, videos, and even text by a simple drag-and-drop.
These tablets can serve as a hub, effortlessly connecting to a PC with a simple drag. Once connected, they can transform into a secondary display for the PC and seamlessly work with the keyboard and mouse. This lets you edit files on one screen while browsing reference documents or attending an online meeting on the other. Furthermore, with drag-and-drop file sharing between the PC and tablet, you can be even more productive and multi-task like a champ.
Your Productivity Companions
To ensure a seamless user experience, the PaperMatte Tablets can be paired with a range of accessories. This includes the new and improved HUAWEI M-Pencil (2nd generation), enhancing the handwriting experience and offering system-level stylus functionality. Furthermore, a smart detachable keyboard with the AI Voice key enhances productivity and convenience for users on the go.
HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition
The HUAWEI MatePad 11.5-inch PaperMatte Edition boasts a 2200 x 1440 resolution display with a 3:2 aspect ratio, optimizing the screen-to-body ratio for an immersive visual experience. The tablet comes in an elegant Space Grey color, exuding a calming and futuristic vibe. It can deliver a cinema-grade audio-visual experience, thanks to the Quad-speaker system and Histen audio algorithms for fine-tuning specific frequency ranges and volume levels.
HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition
In contrast, the HUAWEI MatePad 11-inch PaperMatte Edition offers a slightly different set of features. It features a high-resolution 2560 x 1600 HUAWEI Full View Display with a P3 colour gamut and 275 PPI, providing sharp and vibrant visuals for a captivating visual experience. Its design is both classic and sophisticated, with a Graphite Black colour option. If portability is your top priority, this is your ideal option, as it only weighs 480g and is more compact.
In terms of entertainment, the tablet also delivers a cinema-grade audio-visual experience, featuring a Quad-speaker system and Histen 8.0 audio algorithms for fine-tuning specific frequency ranges and volume levels.
Both these tablets are great for students to replace their physical books with their digital copies. Better yet, they can offer immersive gaming and movie watching as the display is phenomenal at cutting out glare. These tablets can also help them transform their notetaking with a slew of well-thought-out features in the HUAWEI Notes app.
