*Best review channel for artists, bar none* 😌👍🏾 After watching your videos, I never have questions about use cases and you even answer questions I never thought to ask (e.g. size of the port hole on the keyboard case for 3rd party accessories)! Thank you so much for all the hard work put into your reviews☺️
Thanks for doing all these drawing tablet reviews. It is really helpful for us considering which one to buy. Looking forward for you to review Huawei MatePad 11.5 that has a less powerful processor. The 3:2 aspect ratio is really appealing to me.
I like the 3:2 aspect ratio which is more usable in both landscape and portrait orientation. The overall performance and feel is gonna be quite similar to this tablet. If you like 3:2 aspect ratio, the other tablet to consider is OnePlus Pad which has official Google Play Store so there will be no issues with payment for apps and restoring purchases. Downside is OxygenOS. I have reviewed that too www.parkablogs.com/content/artist-review-oneplus-pad-stylo
Thank you for your great review. I buy in these days the 2021 version that i consider more complete. The 2023 version lost a lot of things: -Sd card slot -wifi 6 - usb support 2.0 (previous 3.0) -2 microphone (previous 4) I waited the review of mi pad 6 and its pen , but with sale and promotion i got the 2021 version with a great price and with pen 2nd gen
Thanks so much for the informative review! At around 19:58, you demonstrated how an app may not have full functionality (i.e. beyond the free features) on HarmonyOS. May I know if the Concepts app works unimpeded? I am considering to get a MatePad as gift for someone who uses a Huawei phone. On the other hand, I see that the MatePad Air is now available in Malaysia but not yet in Singapore. Hope to see a review on that product soon! :D
The basic version of Concepts will work but you probably cannot buy tools inside the app. I recommend you go with Xiaomi Pad 5 or Pad 6 instead with Xiaomi Smart Pen
I discovered the channel today, the best tablet and pencil reviews so far. I want to buy this tablet for study “Kanji” and note taking. I didn’t like the Samsung Tab S7 Fe’s pencil response and I don’t have that much money to spend for iPad, do you recommend this tablet
I actually prefer the Samsung pen. Note that pen response will vary depending on the app you use. Some apps will have faster response, some slower. But S7 FE tablet is 60Hz so there's a limit there. You should go with maybe 90-120Hz display if you have the budget. Matepad 11 has the same pen and tablet response with Samsung S7 FE if I remember correctly.
good nonbias review. most reviewers dont really emphasize on the inconvenience not having GMS. been using my matepad pro 11 2021 versio for about 6 months. i regret buying it. should have bought non huawei android like xiaomi.
I no longer use matte screen protectors. But if you do use matte screen protector, you will get more tactile drawing experience. You can get the metal tip with matte screen protector and those will not wear out.
hi i'm using huawei mate pro 2020 version, i was able to install concepts app but i can't purchase any tools or update to pro.. do you have any technique on how should i do that?
Good review) But i have a question for the experienced users. I have Xiaomi Pad 6 and i have options to buy Xiaomi Smart Pen 2 or graphic tablet Wacom Intuos S (to use with mi pad 6). In my country they are practically sold by the same price. I want to start my digital art journey, so i am a beginner, what would you recommend?
Go with the Xiaomi Smart Pen 2. There's no need to connect anything which is very convenient. Wacom Intuos S does not work with Android tablets anyway.
Download Gspace app from Huawei AppGallery first. Then use Gspace app to download Concepts. OR you can search for "concepts app apk" to download the APK file. Both methods will not let you buy brushes and stuff from the app
@@teohontech7141 thankyou. But i dont mind at all about gms stuff at all. Probably. Since it not my main device. some artis I know said harmony os 3 greater for drawing and overal stuff But you said otherwise. Then matepad 11 2021 its not half bad.
@@TheSimSimy The hardware is good. Drawing performance is good. But I feel HarmonyOS lacks features that Samsung has. If you're just drawing and don't use much of the features I mentioned in the video, then you should have no problem. There's Google Play Store too via Gspace so you will have access to all apps.

Are these are lack really compare to 2021v
Is 2021 version compatible with gen2 pen?
Just ordered one to paint on the go! Thanks for your advice. Hope it's going to be good!
How's it going? Is it good?
I'll wait for the mi pad 6 review, is it improved or not 😁
Yes got mine last week and it's amazing
Mi pad 6 pro or 5 pro with mi pencil 2 generation will be good review
@@swirlandtwirl5417but cannot use microsoft pc level
The palm rejection still suck
what is the name of the app that you used in the first part of the vid?
that pen improved a lot i huh, thats nice.
Great review as always. You should try the Xiaomi Book S 2in1 and see its drawing capabilities..

Please review matepad 11.5 pappermatte version
Your daughter is really going at it on that IPad
She's using Google Earth to find train tracks. lol
good nonbias review. most reviewers dont really emphasize on the inconvenience not having GMS. been using my matepad pro 11 2021 versio for about 6 months. i regret buying it. should have bought non huawei android like xiaomi.
Got it+pen for 200 usb 2.0 very upsetting but still good
Have you tried the paper matte version? Does it give a better experience with the pen for drawing?
I no longer use matte screen protectors. But if you do use matte screen protector, you will get more tactile drawing experience. You can get the metal tip with matte screen protector and those will not wear out.
@@teohontech7141 Huawei launch the papermatte version of this tablet, not a screen protector
Huawei launched a new model based called matepad paper matte edition. The glass screen is a matte surface.
hi i'm using huawei mate pro 2020 version, i was able to install concepts app but i can't purchase any tools or update to pro.. do you have any technique on how should i do that?
How did you install Concepts? You will have to install it through Google Play Store to be able to buy additional tools
Pls review the paper matte edition 😊
Good review)
But i have a question for the experienced users. I have Xiaomi Pad 6 and i have options to buy Xiaomi Smart Pen 2 or graphic tablet Wacom Intuos S (to use with mi pad 6).

@@teohontech7141 Thank you very much Teoh, i'll buy smart pen 2 😉
Looks like i was mistaken by the seller that intuos works with android)
Sir can you review xiaomi pad 6 global edition for drawing and can you recommend a screen protector
Maybe next end of this month or in July
Please review Lenovo tab extreme.. connected to windows with display in.
Good day sir. Is it posible if you can make a tutorial on how you download concepts
Download Gspace app from Huawei AppGallery first. Then use Gspace app to download Concepts.

Matepad 11 Papermatte 2023 Edition please review
Hi between Xiaomi Matepad 6 vs Huawei Matepad 11.5 which one is better for write taking notes?
They are both good. One is not better than the other.
Can you purchase ibis paint and csp with this OS?
what u think about papermate edition?
what is the app you used in 12:02 - Line tests?
Medibang
@@teohontech7141 thanks
Does the silver pencil work with this tab?
its SGD268 for wifi model.
amazing value, too bad with the 128GB this is NOT HAPPENING.
with No microSD.
Which one you recommended as budget drawing tablet? Matepad 11 2021 or 2023?
Since they are pretty much similar, I guess the 2021 model as that has the microsd card. But if you need the keyboard, get the 2023.
@@teohontech7141 how about the os? Is it make any difference when using harmony os 3 while drawing or is it similar with harmony os 2?
@@TheSimSimy The OS doesn't affect the drawing apps or performance. However, in the video 18:22, I explained the limitation of HarmonyOS.
@@teohontech7141 thankyou. But i dont mind at all about gms stuff at all. Probably. Since it not my main device. some artis I know said harmony os 3 greater for drawing and overal stuff But you said otherwise. Then matepad 11 2021 its not half bad.

Is the computer tab pairing only between huwaei? can't match with other brand computer
Some features are only with Huawei laptop. External wireless display mode can be achieved with other apps, e.g. Spacedesk, SuperDisplay
Do you have any battery drain issues with Gspace or other issues? Thanks
I don't notice additional battery drain from Gspace
what app u use for sketching? thank u
Concepts app
Im really confused between this huawei MatePad 11 and Xioami Pad 6 for drawing and note taking. Any help please ?
Go with Xiaomi because there is Google Play Store
@@teohontech7141 Is the xiaomi pad 6 better for drawing??
What’s the app u are using?
Concepts. I also use Infinite Painter and Medibang.
Thx Q
so this pen is better than xiaomi smart pen 2nd gen?
It is. But note that there's no Google Play Store with Huawei tablets although that can be installed later, but there are limitations.
@@teohontech7141 yeah, pricewise xiaomi is cheaper
matepad only have 128gb of internal storage (fortunately they have external slot for memory card)
What app are you using?
Concepts
How can you download concepts in huawei matepad 11.5 papermatt edition
@@majavisnu You have to download through Google Play Store with help of Gspace app. But you will not be able to buy stuff from the Concepts app.
The latency is terrible
I think the 2021 version is better because it has a memory card port
Yeah. A microSD card is always useful so I'm not sure why they removed that
what drawing app is this
Concepts
does this support video out?
No. The USB-C has USB 2 speed
thanks for the info
6g ram yuck 🤮atleast there's 120hz right?
Bro it's already pretty fkn good for its price. What are on about??
