Performance
Under the hood, the Huawei MatePad SE is powered by the Kirin 710A chipset, built on a 14 nm process. The octa-core CPU, with a combination of Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A53 cores, provides adequate performance for a range of applications. Coupled with the Mali-G51 MP4 GPU, the device handles multitasking, streaming, and casual gaming reasonably well, although high-performance games may require reduced settings for smooth gameplay. HarmonyOS 2.0 as the operating system ensures a smooth experience with Huawei's well-integrated ecosystem.
The MatePad SE offers various memory configurations: 32GB storage with 3GB RAM, and 64GB or 128GB storage with 4GB RAM, catering to different user needs. Additionally, the presence of a dedicated microSDXC slot allows for expanded storage, addressing the needs of users who require more space for apps and media.
