I spent a month with the Huawei MatePad Air, and it's confirmed my one big wish for the next iPad Air

The Huawei MatePad Air, a new tablet from Huawei, has impressed the author for a month. It comes with a 12-inch OLED display featuring high refresh rates, peak brightness, and a special anti-glare PaperMatte coating that reduces reflections. This display makes the MatePad Air outshine Apple's iPad Air, which relies on an LCD panel and has thicker bezels.

The MatePad Air is also lighter and cheaper than the iPad Air. While the iPad Air still leads in performance and app ecosystem, the MatePad Air's improved display makes it a strong competitor for everyday tasks like watching content and browsing the web. The author hopes for the next iPad Air to have an OLED display with similar anti-glare features to match the MatePad Air's capabilities.
