The Chinese manufacturer Honor is warming up Mobile World Congress next week advancing some of its news. Stands out above all who will be its first humanoid robotdesigned for the home and there are no more details, which threatens to overshadow other products such as the Robot Phoneabout which very little is also known, or the new MagicPadwhich has just been announced as the world’s thinnest tablet.
The MagicPad 3 last year was already very thin at 5.8 mm thick, but the new MagicPad 4 reduce that number to 4.8mm. It is thinner than iPad Air6.1 mm, and that the iPad Pro5.1 mm, or that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S115.1 mm, and only tablets surpass it E Inkelectronic ink, such as reMarkable 2with 4.7 mm. But this is a different concept, more like a digital notepad, despite the format.
The MagicPad 4 has a slightly smaller screen, so 12.3 inchescompared to the 13.3 inches of its predecessor. It is not a great loss, considering that the panel goes from being LCD to OLEDwith a resolution of 3,000 x 1,080 pixelsrefresh rate 165Hz and maximum brightness 2,400 nits.
The battery, logically given the dimensions (273.4 x 178.8 x 4.8 mm), is also somewhat smaller, 10,100 mAh with fast charging 66W. And although Honor has not shared autonomy estimates, the new OLED screen could help it last longer than last year’s model. Thanks to everything being smaller and thinner, the MagicPad 4 weighs about 145 grams less than the MagicPad 3, making it 450 grams.
The tablet is powered by a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5accompanied by 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage, or 16 GB and 512GB. Run Magic OS 10based on Android 16and includes a rear camera 13MP and a front of 9MP.
Its photography capabilities may be basic, but, like last year’s model, the MagicPad 4 excels in audio, with a total of eight speakers offering a spatial sound experience.
Honor has not announced the pricealthough it will be available starting next March 2, the first day of the MWC. We will probably meet him at the press conference that Honor will give on Sunday the 1st for the convention.
