Huawei's Kindle Tablet, MatePad Paper
The e-ink tablet of Huawei impressively has thinner bezels flaunting a 68% screen-to-body ratio, making it look more like one of the latest tablets out there. Not to mention that it sports a massive 10.3-inch display.
However, it is to note that the massive display of the upcoming e-tablet of Huawei comes with an e-ink grayscale display. The screen also comes with reading tablet features, such as anti-glare and anti-reflective.
According to a recent report by Engadget, the grayscale display of the Huawei MatePad Paper comes with 256 various shades of black and white, which could not only show photos and text, it could also display videos.
Huawei MatePad Paper Features
As mentioned, the MatePad Paper is more than a mere reading e-book tablet, it also serves as a productivity tool.
The e-ink Huawei tablet comes with an M-Pencil stylus, allowing its users to take down notes or scribble on their reading device. The Chinese tech giant boasts that it has enabled a 26ms sensitivity for the paper-like tablet display to make note-taking smoother.
Engadget noted in the same news story that the smoothness of the stylus experience on the MatePad Paper is far from what users of the S22 Ultra would experience. However, it is already an impressive performance for an e-ink display.
It is worth noting that the M-Pencil stylus is also used on some of the tablets of Huawei, so it is not an entirely new product for the Chinese phone maker.
Meanwhile, SlashGear highlighted that the note-taking feature of the e-ink tablet also allows its users to convert their handwriting into text.
On top of that, if ever its users will be writing personal or confidential notes on the upcoming MatePad Paper, they could lock and encrypt it. They could open it using the fingerprint scanner of the reading tablet.

The Chinese tech behemoth is releasing its e-ink MatePad Paper tablet along with an M-Pencil and a folio case, which starts at $556.99 in Europe.
