Huawei Philippines’ tablet lineup has welcomed a new member, just days after the company launched the P8,999 (around $154) Huawei MatePad SE 11″.

Priced at P29,999 ($513), the Huawei MatePad 11.5″S is now up for preorder at Huawei Experience Stores nationwide and on Shopee, Lazada, TikTok, and Huawei Online Store. Each pre-purchase made between today, June 28, and July 4 comes with P19,896 ($340) worth of freebies, including the P6,999 ($120) Huawei Smart Magnetic Keyboard, P5,999 ($103) Huawei M-Pencil, and P1,899 ($33) Huawei Bluetooth Mouse.

The Huawei MatePad 11.5″S is designed to excel in three key areas: comfortable viewing, powerful performance, and creative freedom. This makes it a great choice for students, busy professionals, and aspiring artists alike.

The tablet’s centerpiece is an 11.5-inch 2.8K IPS LCD display with a refresh rate of up to 144Hz and an upgraded PaperMatte technology, which creates a slightly textured surface that mimics the feel of writing on paper, reducing glare and eye fatigue.

Powering the MatePad 11.5″S is a Kirin 9000WL processor that the company says is built for seamless multitasking and demanding applications. Whether you’re editing photos, creating artwork, or playing graphics-intensive games, the device should be able to handle it all with ease. Better yet, it runs PC-level productivity apps like WPS Office, offering a familiar desktop experience for creating and editing important documents on the go.

Pair the just-announced Huawei product with the third-generation M-Pencil and the new GoPaint app, and who knows where your creativity will take you? The stylus replicates the natural feel of pen on paper, while GoPaint, co-developed with the China Academy of Art, boasts a vast selection of brushes and textures, allowing you to do basic sketches and even detailed masterpieces, as well as a wide range of features like curve correction and willow leaf tools.

Other features of the Huawei MatePad 11.5″S include an 8,800mAh battery with support for 22.5W-watt fast charging, a 13-megapixel rear camera, an 8-megapixel front shooter, a quad-speaker system tuned by Huawei Histen audio technology, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and HarmonyOS 4.2.
