Huawei MatePad Pro 11 will come with a giant camera system that is stylish and gives us the same vibes as the Huawei Mate 40 Pro, the camera module shining with a big camera bump that clearly sits above the back of the tablet. Doesn’t that look awesome? Yes, sure it is.

Once baked, the camera module reads there are dual cameras. And there may be an LED flash or a color sensor for better assistance. The appearance is quite strong and comparing Matepad Pro 11 with Huawei Mate 40 Pro is right.

However, the fancy of this upcoming tab not just stops here. It actually goes two steps further, because the rea has textured finishing, similar to a matte. However, more light on this matter could clear the clouds of doubts.

Speaking of light, there is some brightness spotted on the side of the device, which shows an amazing smartphone-like finishing featuring an aluminum frame and sleek corners as well as curved edges. Sweet…

That side reveals to feature large speaker grills along with customized power and volume adjustment keys. There are various holes, which could possibly indicate the microphone system, and it could be better than the last gen.

Moving on the tablet will come with a pre-installed HarmonyOS 3.0 operating system, which makes it the first tablet to sponsor this upcoming Huawei software.

According to the latest information, a new Huawei TD-LTE wireless device, which belongs to the MatePad Pro series has been spotted on the 3C certification. Eventually, the device has qualified the stage and will move on to the further development procedures.

Huawei MatePad Pro Series: 4G Capable

The new tablet models appeared with code names GOT-AL09 and GOT-AL19 on the certification site. Besides, it also powers a 40W adapter and is capable of supporting a 4G LTE network. Thus, it seems like we are moving on the right track and the new device could turn out to be the MatePad Pro 12.6 2022. However, an official seal on this matter is awaited.

The latest development also hints at the HarmonyOS 2 tablet MatePad Pro 12.6 that Huawei released last year. The huge screen powered a Kirin 9000 processor and there’s another 11-inch screen mode with Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset. Featuring an OLED panel, the smart gadgets showed a triple camera framework and an 8MP selfie cam on the front.

Alternatively, the new MatePad Pro could adopt some of the traits of its previous generation. However, for the moment, we cannot say anything, as the Chinese tech maker is a genius when it comes to implementing new features to its product.

Moving back on the topic, the information reveals that some more models appeared for the certification in recent days. These models held the codenames WGR-W09, WGR-W19, WGRR-W09, and WGRR-W19. Consequently, this indicates that more devices will join the MatePad lineup in the time ahead.
