Got my hands on the Huawei Matepad 10.4 tablet a first tablet in years and well the first thing that caught my attention is the 10.4 inch screen that has a impressive 2K display with a max resolution of 2000 x 1200 that is not so bad for a mid-range tablet. The screen is a rounded edge IPS touch screen with full view display complimented by a matte back cover that makes handling very comfortable as you have more grip and not to be worried by the irritation of seeing fingerprints everywhere on the mate pad.
The Huawei Mate pad 10.4 inch comes bundled with the Huawei m pen for creatives and for easier writing experience that i must say is quite accurate when its translating to text thanks to the composite material used in the making of the m pen. The M pen enables creatives to turn a tablet into paper or canvas for artistic impressions. The 10.4 inch screen is perfect for both productivity and entertainment as you are able to enjoy watching videos or streaming movies and the kids can also play their games on a perfectly sized devices
Some of the features that have caught my eye include
Wi-Fi 6+
The Wi-Fi 6 that ensures faster speed to offer you smooth and stable connection. With a decent internet connection it does away with long buffering or frame freezing, up to 2,400 Mbps transfer speeds make it easy to download large files and watch HD videos online.
Multi Screen Collaboration
Huawei continues to develop their ecosystem that allows you to enjoy one super device as you access your smartphone on other Huawei devices and in this case on the mate pad. Once connected, your smartphone will step into the HUAWEI MatePad, and these two devices will merge into "ONE" super device. Your phone screen is projected on your tablet which allows you to operate on a bigger screen with greater freedom. Now you can make a call, send a message and check photos from your phone on the tablet screen. You can also drag and drop files between the two devices, and edit them while chatting with friends on your phone using the same keyboard.5 This cross-device collaboration makes life and work easier
Audio
In the world of content one needs an audio output that compliments good screen display and on the Huawei mate pad 10.4 you are able to get good audio thanks to their quad speaker system and quad-channel sound system,. With the Histen 6.1 3D stereo, you can enjoy an immersive sound field flowing all around you. Sound by harman kardon, the rich acoustic details and powerful sound waves will definitely rock your world. HUAWEI MatePad brings the impressive sound to you as if you are in a movie theatre or concert hall.

VERDICT
The Huawei Mate Pad 10.4 inch is a lot of value for the price of R6 999.00 and if you were fortunate to take advantage of the Huawei Tablets and PC week between February 15, 2023, and February 2023 you would have snatched it at R4 799 that's a cool R2 200 discount. On top of the discount, you receive free gifts a Bluetooth speaker and a pair of Bluetooth headphones with your purchase though I would have loved a free Bluetooth keyboard and cover, but everybody appreciates a free gift. The Huawei mate pad 10.4 as mid-range tablet is a good buy for creatives who want to be able to work on the go and is also a good buy for kids to consume media content and also a schooling aid to use in their educational activities. A 4k display would have been awesome but for the budget a 2k display is very impressive and does a good job. The Huawei mate pad 10.4 available on the Huawei Online store { its cheaper than at their physical store) with free fast delivery.
