The MatePad Pro 13.2 now comes in a new Light Blue colour, officially called Feitianqing, available exclusively for the PaperMatte edition. This version features a silk-like texture and uses 0.5mm aviation-grade ultra-thin glass fiber for a more durable and refined finish.
The back panel combines a natural texture with multiple optical coatings for a visual effect that resembles real silk.
It’s also the first MatePad to ship with HarmonyOS 5.0 out of the box. The updated OS delivers a more desktop-like experience with support for multi-window mode, panoramic split screen, and air-gesture file sharing for seamless transfers between devices. Huawei has also upgraded the Celia AI assistant to help with meetings, calls, and other productivity tasks.
The rest of the specs remain unchanged. It features a 13.2-inch PaperMatte display with a 2880 x 1920 resolution and 144Hz refresh rate.
Inside, you get 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, along with a 10,100mAh battery. The tablet includes a dual rear camera setup with a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultrawide lens, while a 16MP front camera handles selfies and video calls.
This Light Blue edition is priced at 6,299 yuan and will go on sale from June 18 on Huawei’s VMall store.
