When it comes to work and play combined, the Huawei MatePad 12X is very much worth a look. Sporting a 12-inch PaperMatte display that feels like you are writing on a notepad, the supersized tablet is as capable with creativity applications, as it is for study and even just catching a YouTube video or two.
The device’s capabilities expand even further when matched with the Huawei M-Pencil Pro stylus, which enables you to write, draw or paint on the screen in a natural, easy flowing manner. And the best news is that, until 4 November 2025, you can secure one for free with every 12X purchase.
Not only do you get the superb 12-inch MatePad 12X tablet and its included keyboard, this deal adds the M-Pencil Pro stylus and a year of accidental screen damage protection. Those are usually worth £210 on their own.
Considering the M-Pencil Pro is worth £130 on its own, that’s a great offer. Plus, when you buy the MatePad 12X through Huawei, you also get a year’s worth of Huawei Care accidental damage protection thrown in. That’s another saving of £60, and even more for peace of mind.
What is the Huawei MatePad 12X
The Huawei MatePad 12X is the company’s affordable and accessible tablet for all manner of uses. Its 12-inch PaperMatte display comes with a 2800 x 1840 pixel resolution and peak brightness of 1,000 nits.
It runs on the Kirin T92B octa-core processor, and ensures supersmooth operation with 12GB of RAM on board too. There’s 256GB of storage and dual-band Wi-Fi for stable, fast wireless connectivity. Bluetooth 5.2 is also available.
Fast charging is through the 12X’s USB-C port and with a 10,100mAh battery inside, you’re getting a mighty amount of life on a single charge.
Six speakers also provide full bodied audio, while the 50-megapixel camera on the rear is capable of up to 4K video recording. And, when you’re chatting to friends or in a video meeting, the 8-megapixel front-facing cam also presents a pin sharp 1080p picture.
The Huawei MatePad 12X is available in white or green, with a keyboard included for £599.99 – not forgetting that you get £210 worth of M-Pencil Pro and Huawei Care thrown in for good measure.
Wait though, there’s more – consider a Huawei Watch GT 6 too
Also launched recently was Huawei’s latest flagship smartwatch, the Huawei Watch GT6 Series. And there’s a great offer on that too.
You can save up to £40 on either the Huawei Watch GT 6 or GT 6 Pro, but only if you order by 30 October 2025. Just use the discount code AOTHERGT6, which can also be applied to the Outdoor Edition bundle on Huawei’s webstore.
This bundle includes a Huawei Watch GT 6 Series, plus a pair of Huawei Freearc headphones (usually priced at £99).
That means you can get the headphones and Huawei Watch GT 6 for just £229. What better way is there to fully kit yourself out in time for the holidays than with the MatePad 12X, M-Pencil Pro, Watch GT6 and a pair of headphones, all for less than £830.
