The tech giant is releasing the October 2024 update for Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2 global units. It upgrades the security patch level to the current month.

A good part of the update is it will protect your device’s system and data from privacy exploits and harmful malware. It further increases the tablet’s potential to fight against vulnerabilities that may ruin the overall user experience.

However, the bad part is that the device is still running on the HarmonyOS 4.0 version. The company hasn’t upgraded the MatePad Pro 13.2 tablet to the 4.2 software build. We anticipate hearing about the new rollout for the flagship device soon.

According to the changelog, MatePad Pro 13.2 users can identify the new October 2024 update with the HarmonyOS 4.0.0.141 version. One has to download a software package of 356 MB to install the latest security improvements to the handset.

Weibo tipster @RuiPlaysDigital shared the screenshot of the HarmonyOS NEXT.0.0.71 update, saying that it is a public beta version. If true, it’s quite strange as the OEM scheduled the HarmonyOS NEXT public beta program for tomorrow (October 8).

The tipster didn’t mention any other details on this matter. It only said that the “0.0.71 is the public test version”. A netizen asked if the WeChat app will be available with the HarmonyOS NEXT public beta. But the tipster denied this matter.

It is unclear how far the current leak is accurate. Huawei has set the public beta program for October 8. This simply means that the company will begin things with registration and thereby, releasing the new HarmonyOS NEXT public beta build.

Another perspective is, Huawei has currently pushed this version to closed beta users. After October 8, the company may open the same build for public testing.

Huawei will surely clear the doubts on this matter tomorrow. Till then, let’s have a look at the new features arriving with the HarmonyOS NEXT.0.0.71 beta update.
