I like my iPad Pro M4 quite a lot; the thin design along with the tandem OLED makes it the go-to choice if I want to read magazines or play games on the couch. There's a distinct shortage of OLED-toting Android tablets, and that's why I was interested in Huawei's MatePad Pro that rolled out last year. Thanks to an innovative nano-coating tech with a matte texture and an OLED panel, the MatePad Pro Max stood out for all the right reasons, and I thoroughly enjoyed using it.
Huawei is now showcasing its 2026 efforts with the introduction of the MatePad Pro Max. As the name indicates, this is Huawei's biggest tablet yet, and it has considerable upgrades: coming in at just 4.7mm and at 499g, it is the thinnest and lightest 13-inch tablet around. I didn't think we'd see a thinner tablet than the 4.9mm iPad Pro, but Huawei managed to do it, and that's an achievement in and of itself.
