Huawei brings its compact “iPad Killer” MatePad Mini to Europe
After a late-2025 launch event in Dubai, Huawei has officially introduced the new MatePad Mini to European markets. Designed as a direct rival to iPad mini, the device targets users who want a small, lightweight tablet with premium display tech and strong productivity features.
The MatePad Mini features an 8.8-inch Flexible OLED PaperMatte display with a 16:10 aspect ratio, 2.5K resolution and a 92% screen-to-body ratio. It reaches up to 1800 nits of brightness, supports 120Hz refresh rate, and integrates an anti-reflection optical film for improved eye comfort.
The tablet runs HarmonyOS 4.3 and includes Huawei’s advanced multitasking tools, plus support for the Huawei M-Pencil Pro for note-taking, sketching and precise editing. Huawei has not confirmed the chipset powering the device.

Power comes from a 6400 mAh battery with 66W Huawei SuperCharge. The company promises long-term battery health over a three-year period. The device weighs just 255 g, measures 5.1 mm in thickness, and uses a magnesium alloy frame with a 3D vegan-fiber back.
