The device is marketed as an office helper of sorts, featuring a 10.4inch 2k FullView Display and four speakers tuned by Harman Kardon for a more immersive sound experience.

Huawei says that the device has dual TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light and Flicker Free certifications, meaning that negative impact on users’ eyes is minimised.
Moreover, the Huawei MatePad 10.4, 2022 Edition comes with a quad-channel, quad-speaker sound system, as well as professional tuning by Harman Kardon.
