Huawei MatePad Air Z Brings a 2.8K 144Hz Screen With Anti-Glare Coating
Huawei has added another tablet to its MatePad Air lineup with the launch of the MatePad Air Z.
The new tablet is available in Standard and Enjoy Edition versions. The Standard model comes in Coral Orange, Island Blue, and Space Gray, while the Enjoy Edition is available in Nebula Pink and Moonlight Silver.
Display and Hardware
Both versions are powered by Huawei’s Kirin T93S23 chipset and run HarmonyOS 7.
The MatePad Air Z features a 12-inch Ultra HD Eye-Care PaperMatte display with a 2.8K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 88% screen-to-body ratio.
Huawei says the display is designed to reduce glare while keeping text and images clear in bright environments.
Both models include an 8MP front camera and a 50MP rear camera. However, they use different camera housings.
The Standard model has a circular camera lens inside a pill-shaped module with an LED flash, while the Enjoy Edition uses a simpler oval-shaped camera housing.
Both versions also feature a 10,100mAh battery and a six-speaker stereo system.
The Standard model supports 66W charging and comes with a 66W charger, while the Enjoy Edition ships with a 40W adapter.
