【CNMO Review】On the evening of March 16, Huawei held a whole house smart new product launch conference, bringing a series of new products, including our protagonist this time - Huawei MatePad Paper. From the unveiling of MWC2022 to the announcement of prices at domestic conferences, MatePad Paper has attracted the attention of consumers in terms of price and function itself. Especially for the long-dormant ink screen market itself, Huawei's addition is expected to revitalize the entire market and bring more new experiences to users.
It turns out that this is indeed the case, Huawei entered the ink screen market, on the basis of the ink screen to bring a distributed ability of the Hongmeng system, so that MatePad Paper broke the barrier between the terminal, whether with the mobile phone or with the PC, can be well interconnected, which for business people, in fact, is to solve the urgent need. The addition of the second generation of M-Pencil is to make the ink screen magic pen flower, many of the original operations become wonderful pen flower, paper and pen this pair of natural CP, not only can appear on the traditional tablet, ink screen is still applicable, and even can be said to be better.
Next, let's take a look at Huawei's MatePad Paper product, the ultimate technology and ink form, a stroke of everything.
Designed so that you have the desire to carry it with you
Huawei's MatePad Paper is equipped with a 10.3-inch ink screen, the screen ratio has reached 86.3%, and the width of the front looking border is not very abrupt. Of course, as a main reading and writing ink screen tablet, in fact, the border is not as narrow as possible, and it is necessary to leave a certain space for the hand to hold in daily use. On the far left, the MatePad Paper has designed a spine that is just right when held with the left hand, and the fingers don't cover the screen and don't put too much pressure on it.
On the back of the fuselage, MatePad Paper uses a plain leather material, and the ink and black color we got uses a slight lychee pattern, which is more delicate to the touch, and some of the notebooks we use daily to record meetings are similar in texture, so that daily use can actually be held with one hand, and may be more comfortable. Of course, Huawei also provides everyone with a magnetic smart leather case, which can protect the screen on the one hand, and can better protect the stylus on the other hand. Now, the second generation of M-Pencil can not only be magnetically absorbed on the MatePad Paper, but also the smart leather case can give it a lock, the daily carrying sense of security, do not have to worry about the pen falling.
It is worth mentioning that unlike traditional tablet products, this time Huawei has equipped the MatePad Paper with a smart leather case and stylus, without the need to purchase separately, which well ensures the unity of the user's experience after getting the MatePad Paper, and there is no need to buy the pen and leather case separately.
In terms of weight that many people pay attention to, the weight of the MatePad Paper is maintained at 360g, which is much lighter than that of ordinary tablets in the hand. Although it is heavier than the mobile phone, its weight distribution is more dispersed, so the weight of the mobile phone in the hand does not feel the same. And when this product is carried daily, it is actually very space-saving in the bag, plus it is thin enough, if you backpack to commute or travel every day, it is actually very convenient to carry.
To write, you should not blindly type on the keyboard
As we grow up, we may still go to school when we write with a pen, and the time spent with a pen in the next few decades of life may not add up to as long as the time spent with a pen as a student. Even some writers, in fact, are using computer code code words, typing keyboard has long replaced the traditional handwriting, which also led to some people who can write gorgeous words with computers may not be able to write out every word they want to express with a pen.
Huawei MatePad Paper actually undertakes a function that allows you to write and continues the habit of writing. To this end, MatePad Paper is equipped with a PMMA cover on the basis of the screen, which forms just the right sense of damping, whether it is touched by hand or written and drawn with a pen, there is a paper-like experience, which allows some users who are willing to handwrite to have a good writing feel.
The standard second-generation M-Pencil stylus supports 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity, the optimal delay is only 26ms, and the nib has also been specially treated, which is not the same as the transparent nib on the previous tablet. When writing on the screen with this pen, you will hear the "rustling" sound of writing on the familiar and unfamiliar paper, find a quiet environment, quietly listen to the tip of the pen on the screen, it is inspiration and creativity, but also the free expression brought by words. What if you're afraid the nib is wearing out too quickly? Don't worry, Huawei also intimately equipped users with two nibs, write at will, don't worry.
In addition, in order to improve the efficiency of the use of the ink screen, Huawei introduced the global handwriting function to the MatePad Paper, drawing a horizontal line on the text can quickly select the corresponding text, drawing a wavy line on the text can quickly delete the corresponding text, and drawing a vertical line before and after the text can split or combine words, and the operation of the image is intuitive and fast. Unlike some products with three diamond buttons set at the bottom, MatePad Paper supports global gestures, and the familiar return and return desktop gestures when we use mobile phones can be used on it.
Before starting, there may be many users who are worried, or curious, if I read with MatePad Paper, what do I want to do with annotations? Do I have to switch the interface back and forth when I take reading notes? In fact, these are not problems, on the MatePad Paper we can see the clever solutions given by Huawei.
Sliding from the upper right corner of the screen to the lower left corner, you can also turn on the "Global Annotation" and "Split Screen Notes" function, the former supports us to annotate and share in any interface, the latter can read while taking notes, so that reading is more than reading.
Reading, should not struggle in blue light
After a year, what is it that everyone reads more? book? Or a variety of screens, I believe that most people spend their time using computer screens or mobile phone screens to read, which brings a lot of pressure to the eyes. Especially in the absence of anti-blue light on mobile phone screens in previous years, how many people have finally become myopia because they stay up late to read novels? In recent years, major manufacturers are making up for the shortcomings of anti-blue light, and the role is indeed significant, but for ink screens, these are not things.
Huawei MatePad Paper is the world's first ink level board that has passed the RWE paper display certification in Germany, with low blue light, no stroboscopic, wide viewing angle, daylight-readable paper-like characteristics, and the same eye protection is used in different scenarios. When used during the day, "one-touch lights off" turns off the backlight and enjoys reading with the help of natural light. At night, you can turn on the backlight, which is adjustable at 32 levels to light up every text and make the reading experience equally comfortable.
In addition, many people in traditional ink screen products complain that the refresh rate is too low, and it is simply uncomfortable to turn pages or slide down like opening 0.2 times the speed when reading. In order to solve this problem, MatePad Paper provides a smart refresh rate mode, which will be lower in plain text scenes such as reading and notes, but in scenes with more slides, the refresh rate will be improved and smoother to use. The addition of intelligent refresh rate not only solves the stubborn problem of "slow" ink screen, but also takes into account the long-term battery life experience.
Record, not only to write, but also to listen
If you think that most of the use cases of huawei MatePad Paper are reading, then the pattern is somewhat small. In fact, it is precisely under the blessing of paper-like experience and stylus, it also has the ability to record, whether it is a meeting record or a daily class knowledge record, it can be easily competent. Pencil, pen, ballpoint pen, marker four pen types, black, gray, white three colors, thick, medium, thin three kinds of strokes to choose, with the pen double-click switching function, can make note recording more fast, efficient.
When we use handwritten records, we can also directly convert to standard text, convenient for secondary editing, recording can also be directly converted into text, can be recorded while recording, the experience is very harmonious to use. Thanks to the 4-microphone standard linear array and voice intelligent gain control technology, the MatePad Paper can accurately pick up the distance to 5 meters, and it can also record clear sound without a variety of reverbs.
For some business people, attending various meetings may require carrying a voice recorder and various conference equipment, which undoubtedly increases the burden. Now, a MatePad Paper can actually do tasks such as recording and recording, and the easy-to-use transposing function after recording also brings better secondary creation ability.
Sharing should not cross thousands of mountains and rivers
When we read every day, we burst out all kinds of inspiration, but when you want to share the inspiration, you find that you are using an island, and there is no inspiration in an instant. This is the problem solved by Hongmeng on Huawei's MatePad Paper, which makes it break the characteristics of the island and better interconnect with peripheral products.
Through the mobile hyperterminal, we can transfer the reading content on the mobile phone to the ink level board for reading, and the larger screen and paper-like experience will maximize their respective advantages. For example, reading Weibo articles on mobile phones is not very happy, through the super terminal can be directly transferred to the MatePad Paper with a single tap, at this time, the super terminal will even appear on the weibo circulation icon, the design is very detailed.
In conjunction with the Huawei PC, it can also become a display, the computer screen handles daily work, and the MatePad Paper can read content with a lot of text, and the comfortable look and feel makes your eyes less stressed after a day of work.
When we need to share some information or content, we can complete the fast transfer by sharing with Huawei. Of course, there is another way, that is, the distributed file management system, in the state of collaboration, MatePad Paper has become a drive letter of the PC, the design of interoperability can allow content to break the terminal boundary, free circulation on different devices, which is a one-stop experience for users.
summary
The appearance of Huawei's MatePad Paper has undoubtedly broadened Huawei's product categories, and the ingenuity of the design has also allowed users to see the inspiration that Huawei has brought to the industry. Take the core of Hongmeng for example, the use of its MatePad Paper is no exaggeration to say, quite a stroke of the meaning, the interaction of the ink screen at this moment has become as flexible as living water, easily solved a large part of the user's hands on the ink screen worries, ink and Hongmeng, a stroke of everything.
Of course, such a product is not suitable for everyone, its target users are mainly business people, as well as users with a large number of record needs, can be students or readers. Therefore, when choosing, everyone must first recognize their own needs, and make a judgment on whether it is suitable for themselves from the actual situation, rather than blindly impulsively seeking innovation.
In general, Huawei MatePad Paper has a very eye-catching design and function among similar ink screen products, and the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers is quite prominent. If used with Huawei's ecological products, it will have a miraculous effect, and it can achieve 1+1>2.
