Future Huawei MatePad tablets may adopt PC-level productivity

Huawei is improving its MatePad tablets with every new generation and these products may soon gain PC-level productivity. Yes, a new leak hints that the next-gen tablets could introduce more PC-level apps to enrich the user experience.

Weibo tipster @FixedFocus notes that Huawei will likely add more PC-level apps to its future MatePad tablets to increase their productivity. This will enable users to work more efficiently on their tablets, giving them the feel of a smart notebook.

PC-level applications can easily meet consumers’ demands related to heavy or complex tasks. Huawei uses a special PC software engine for such apps, allowing them to run effectively on tablets and even foldable smartphones.

A good example of a PC-level app is the WPS Office. It is a collection of office-based applications to create word processors, presentations,  spreadsheets, and more.

WPS Office has also launched the native HarmonyOS app version which claims to be faster, smarter, and safer. The new application will provide a more convenient experience to its users than before without being a risk to their privacy and security.

The respective app already supports many MatePad tablets. However, the Chinese tech giant launch more such applications in the future to offer a better and more reliable experience on tablets.

The PC-level applications could also come to the existing tablets in the time ahead. Other details on this matter are currently unknown.

Huawei has introduced several tablets this year. The new launches count MatePad Pro 12.2, MatePad 12 X (Air 2024), MatePad 11.5 S, MatePad SE 11 2024, and more. It also announced new commercial tablets like the Qingyun C7.

At the same time, the company is defeating its rivals in the Chinese tablet market every quarter. The OEM shipped 20.5 million tablets in the second quarter of this year and earned a market share of 26%. This increases its annual growth by 66%.

Meanwhile, changes like PC-level apps and productivity for the upcoming MatePad tablets will boost Huawei’s shares in the Chinese tablet market, giving a tougher spot to Apple iPads.
