New Huawei MatePad 11.5 (2025) brings better PaperMatte tech, bigger battery

Amidst all the excitement over the Pura 80 global launch, Huawei also revealed a refreshed version of the MatePad 11.5 from 2023. The new model has a sharper display with improved PaperMatte tech, a bigger battery with faster charging and more.

The 11.5” IPS LCD now has 2,450 x 1,600px resolution (256ppi, 3:2 aspect ratio), up from 2,200 x 1,200px. It runs at up to 120Hz refresh rate and 600 nits brightness (with DC dimming).

The optional PaperMatte technology uses nano-etching to reduce reflections by 60% and light interference by 99%. A new circular polarization filter further improves visibility and viewing comfort and even works with sunglasses.

With support for 3rd generation M-Pencil, the tablet can use AI to neaten up your handwriting, organize your handwritten notes and highlight the key points or just let you sketch, with or without AI’s help.

The refined Huawei MatePad 11.5 (2025) is slimmer, now measuring just 6.1mm (down from 6.9mm), but a bit heavier at 515g (up from 499g). Huawei says that it is 30% more durable than its predecessor. It’s available in Violet and Space Gray.

Part of the weight is the new 10,100mAh battery, which promises up to 14 hours of streaming on a single charge (the 2023 pad had a 7,700mAh battery). Additionally, charging has almost double the power now with 40W SuperCharge.

The tablet drops the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 and replaces it with an in-house Kirin 8020. There’s a 67% larger graphite sheet to improve cooling. The tablet is equipped with 8GB of RAM and 128/256GB storage.
