The first tablet with Harmony OS officially in Slovakia

Chinese manufacturer Huawei launches its first tablet with a new operating system on the Slovak market Harmony OS 2.0. Huawei MatePad 11 it is also the first tablet of this manufacturer with a 120 Hz display.

Power, 120 Hz display and M-pen support

Huawei introduced a stable version of Harmony OS 2.0 in early June. They were first powered by Huawei P50 series smartphones and later got on other models. Of course, the system is also designed for other types of devices, such as smart watches or tablets. And Huawei MatePad 11 is the first tablet with this system that you can officially buy in Slovakia.

In addition to the new system, the tablet also impresses with its 10.95-inch IPS display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, whose refresh rate is 120 Hz. At the same time, the display minimizes the emission of blue light and boasts TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light (for hardware solution) and TÜV Rheinland Flicker Free certification. As a bonus, there is support for the second-generation M-pen with 4096 pressure levels.

When watching movies, the user will definitely appreciate the four-channel sound from the four Harman Kardon speakers. Last year’s 7 nm + Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset with 6 GB RAM takes care of performance. The internal expandable memory can be 64 GB, 128 GB or 256 GB. The battery has a capacity of 7250 mAh and supports fast 22.5 W charging. The original cover with the keyboard is a matter of course.

Harmony OS offers several modes for more comfortable work

In addition to a customized desktop-like user interface, Harmony OS also brings an innovative Multi-screen feature to your tablet. It offers three modes. Screen mirroring mode allows users to project a computer screen onto a tablet and turn the tablet into a drawing pad that can be paired with the Huawei M-pen touch pen for quick drawings and fine calligraphic work with attention to detail.

Collaborate Mode, in turn, allows for fast interactions between HarmonyOS 2 and Windows platforms, and allows users to transfer content (text, images, and documents) between connected devices with a simple drag. Multi-Window supports the display of up to four applications simultaneously. Thanks to the Window Lock function, the user can then perform parallel and independent operations in two windows.
