HONOR unveiled the MagicPad4 tablet in Saudi Arabia on April 29, 2026, positioning the device as the first tablet powered by the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor. The HONOR MagicPad4 tablet combines processing power with a 165Hz OLED display and AI-driven productivity tools designed for mobile professionals and tech users.
The tablet measures 4.8mm in thickness, making it thinner than the iPad Pro at 5.1mm. At approximately 450 grams, it ranks among the lightest tablets in its category. HONOR achieved this through a “Crescent Structure” design and aerospace-grade fiber materials that increase stiffness by 30 percent while reducing weight by 32 percent. The complete mobile office setup, including tablet, keyboard, and stylus, weighs around 852 grams.
Display and Eye Care Technology
The HONOR MagicPad4 tablet features a 12.3-inch OLED display with a 93 percent screen-to-body ratio and 4mm bezels. The screen supports 165Hz refresh rates, 3000×1920 pixel resolution, and 2400 nits HDR peak brightness for outdoor visibility and smooth motion. The display renders 1.07 billion colors and holds TÜV Rheinland certifications for low blue light and flicker-free performance.
Seven eye-comfort technologies protect users during extended sessions. These include 5280Hz PWM dimming, chip-level AI defocus display technology, and HONOR’s proprietary DOT Eye Comfort Technology. The combination addresses common fatigue issues from prolonged tablet use.
Processing Power and Thermal Management
The HONOR MagicPad4 tablet runs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor built on 3nm architecture, delivering performance benchmarks comparable to desktop computers. Eight speakers with HONOR Spatial Audio provide immersive sound for multimedia and communication. A 10,100mAh battery supports 66W SuperCharge fast charging, enabling full-day productivity with rapid recharging cycles.
Thermal management relies on HONOR’s Ice Cooling System, featuring a 13-layer 3D thermal architecture with 81,717 square millimeters of heat-dissipation area. This design maintains peak performance during intensive tasks without throttling.
PC Mode and Cross-Brand Connectivity
The HONOR MagicPad4 tablet activates a PC Mode interface that mimics desktop computing experiences. Users access a full file management system, navigation bars, and complete mouse support. Desktop shortcuts like Ctrl+C, Alt+Tab, and complex multi-selection gestures function natively, enabling multitasking performance comparable to traditional laptops.
Through HONOR Connect, the tablet achieves cross-brand connectivity beyond typical Apple ecosystem limitations. The device functions as an extended display for Mac computers and enables instant file sharing with iPhone and iPad devices. This approach removes traditional hardware compatibility barriers.
AI Productivity Tools and Saudi Availability
HONOR AI Memo serves as an intelligent assistant for professional workflows. The tool automatically generates meeting transcripts, identifies speakers, and summarizes discussions. Additional AI features include smart reminders, voice noise cancellation, and meeting agent functionality for streamlined communication.
The HONOR MagicPad4 tablet begins sales on April 30, 2026, in Saudi Arabia through HONOR’s official channels. Pricing starts at 3,599 SAR for the 12GB plus 256GB configuration and 3,999 SAR for the 16GB plus 512GB model.
