Honor magicpad 4: thinner, faster, and challenging the ipad pro

Europe and the UK now have a fresh contender in the premium tablet space. Honor just unveiled the MagicPad 4, and it's making waves with its incredibly slim design and powerhouse specs.

Honor's magicpad 4: a new benchmark in tablet design

The tech world has seen a relentless pursuit of thinner devices, and Honor’s latest tablet is leading the charge. At a mere 4.8mm thick – roughly half the width of a pinky finger – the MagicPad 4 surpasses even the iPad Pro M5 and the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra (both measuring 5.1mm).

Weight is another impressive figure: the device clocks in at 450g, comparable to the 11-inch iPad Pro M5. But the MagicPad 4 isn't just about aesthetics; it packs a serious punch under the hood.

The 12.3-inch OLED displayboasts a sharp 3000 x 1920 resolution and a smooth 165Hz refresh rate. Powering the experience is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip, paired with either 12GB or 16GB of RAM and storage options of 256GB or 512GB. This translates to snappy performance, even during demanding multitasking.

Honor has also prioritized software, equipping the MagicPad 4 with MagicOS 10, built on Android 16, and promising six years of security and software updates. A substantial 10,100mAh battery, coupled with 66W fast charging, should easily deliver a full day of use.

Availability and pricing begin in the UK at £599.99 for the 12GB/256GB configuration, rising to £699.99 for the 16GB/512GB model. In Italy and Germany, the price starts at €599.90, while France opens with the base storage option at €699.90.

The MagicPad 4 isn’t just a stylish device; it represents a bold statement. Honor isn't simply chasing trends; they're setting them. This tablet isn’t trying to mimic the competition – it’s challenging them to innovate.
