Huawei rolls out the 12.2‑inch Moronium‑Gold MatePad Pro 2025, now on sale in China
Huawei has just dropped its new MatePad Pro 12.2 2025 Gold Collector’s Edition, a sleek, high‑end tablet that is now available for purchase in China. The launch comes a few months after the company revealed the regular model, and the gold‑coloured tablet is already beating back its rivals with a lot of shiny features.
A little extra – premium storage and a rich‑gold finish
This special edition comes in a 16 GB RAM + 1 TB flash configuration, a size that few tablets offer. The glass‑like PaperMatte screen is finished in a lustrous gold hue that’s sure to turn heads. Wi‑Fi connectivity is included, and the rest of the hardware mirrors the main variant’s specs.
Huawei says the Gear‑up launch is all about “silky, warm, and elegant” style and announces a new “Liujin Collector’s Edition” that promises “elegant new experiences” with HarmonyOS – it’s the company’s new take on its operating system.
Price and first‑sale discount
The official retail price is 7 799 yuan. This works out to roughly ZAR 17.2 000, and for the first batch of sales you’ll get a 50‑yuan cutaway in price – just under ZAR 110 off the list price.
Display: gorgeous, glare‑free, and bright
- 12.2‑inch dual‑layer OLED panel
- 2800 × 1840 px resolution with a 144 Hz refresh rate
- P3 wide‑colour gamut and 1.07 billion colour support
- HDR‑Vivid performance for richer contrast
The panel cuts overall glare by up to 99 %, so you can read or stream for hours without eye fatigue.
Software and performance boosts
- HarmonyOS 5.0 out of the box with the upgraded Celia AI assistant and the new GoPaint sketching app.
- Huawei claims the tablet’s performance is 30 % faster and that “fluency” – the smoothness of the UI – is 20 % smoother than previous generations.
M‑Pencil Pro support
The tablet natively supports the M‑Pencil Pro, which lets you execute simple gestures – like gentle pinch or long‑press – to perform common tasks. You can even use the stylus as a “smart key” to pick fonts or colours inside the Notes app.
Bottom line
With its gold finish, massive storage, and a 144 Hz OLED display that slashes glare, the MatePad Pro 12.2 Gold Collector’s Edition looks like a serious contender for students, professionals and creators alike. If you’re looking for a high‑end tablet on the market, the 2025 Pro edition is now available for purchase – but don’t wait too long to nab that early‑sale discount.
