"Huawei has been on quite the journey. With geopolitical tensions between China and the West meaning its access to many platforms and pieces of hardware and software we take for granted, the Chinese tech giant's fast rise was somewhat stalled in the western hemisphere. Undaunted, Huawei has started making its own chipsets and its own suite of apps and software, and in the Huawei MatePad 11.5"S (2025), the most polished - and addictive - of the lot makes it worth the purchase all on its own."
"While some other tablet makers supply only the tablet itself, with everything else as payable add-ons [looks sternly in the direction of Apple], the MatePad comes with a keyboard, protective case with integrated stand and an M-Pencil as standard. This should not be undervalued in today's endlessly frustrating upselling economy. The screen, unlike many others, is not an OLED or AMOLED, but it comes with a feature many other tablets sadly lack."
Huawei has developed its own chipsets and a suite of apps, including GoPaint. The MatePad 11.5"S (2025) features a metal chassis weighing 510 grams with a textured back and comes in grey or violet. The tablet includes a keyboard, protective case with integrated stand, and an M‑Pencil in the box. The 11.5" TFT LCD IPS screen delivers near-3K resolution and 10-point multitouch, offering sharp visuals despite not being OLED. App availability often requires sideloading familiar apps via APK packs due to platform restrictions. GoPaint is presented as polished and addictive, boosting creative value and positioning the device as a strong iPad alternative.
