Huawei launched its original MatePad SE back in 2022 as a nice and affordable device that had all of the basics down. Now, there’s seemingly a 2024 version, dubbed the MatePad SE 11.
Huawei MatePad SE 11 color options
As the name suggests, the display has been expanded to 11 inches in diagonal. It is still an LCD with a FullHD+ resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels, which is a nice and modern 16:10 aspect ratio. The screen-to-body ratio has been upgraded to 85%, meaning the bezels are noticeably thinner. The display promises a peak brightness of 400 nits, which is decent for indoor use, a 1400:1 contrast ratio, 16.7 million colors, 100% coverage of the sRGB color space and a special eBook mode for reading.
The tablet measures 252.3 x 163.8 x 6.9mm and tips the scale at 475 grams. The body is made of metal. It comes in two color options – Crystal Blue and Nebula Gray. It is powered by a Kirin 710A or a Snapdragon 680 chipset, depending on the region and runs HarmonyOS 2.0 with features like multi-window, multi-screen collaboration, seamless data transfer and screen sharing. The chip is paired with either 64GB or 128GB of storage, and RAM options include 4GB, 6GB and 8GB.
A 7,700 mAh battery keeps the lights on, complete with 22.5W of charging. Other features include a quad-speaker Huawei Histen 9.0 audio system, dual-band Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.1 and a Type-C port with Host/OTG support. You also get an 8MP rear camera and a 5MP front-facing one. The MatePad SE 11 has stylus support (Huawei M-Pen lite) for writing, drawing and note-taking. We also know that the tablet has gravity and ambient light sensors.
No word on cost or availability as of yet, though.
