Now, the company is back on the news with the launch of a new generation of one of the most popular tablets. Huawei introduced the MatePad 11 (2024) in China, a more robust renewable version, HarmonyOS 4 system and even satellite connectivity.

The new Huawei MatePad Pro 11 (2024) is the first tablet with two-way satellite connectivity on the planet. It is capable of connecting to the Chinese satellite system BeiLou, the ability to send text messages and emergency notifications with your site without the need for mobile connection. It is a feature that has become popular among the best mobile phones, but it represents something special for this tablet.

The Huawei MatePad Pro 11 (2024) is an update to the 2023 model in which few things change, but they are important elements. The first is compatibility with satellite connectivity, and the other is that it has the same Kirin 9000S processor found in the MatePad Pro 13.2. In addition, it runs HarmonyOS 4 with all the new features of the latest version of the Hawaii operating system. With all this, it is placed as an excellent alternative in the market.
