Expanding its line-up of tablets, Chinese tech giant Huawei has launched the MatePad Pro in its home country.
The flagship tablet, featuring a punch-hole design, comes with M-Pen stylus and multi-screen collaboration support. It offers features like 40W fast-charging technology, wireless charging support, and top-tier internals.
However, it misses out on Google's app suite, because of the ongoing trade war between China and US.
