Honor’s new MagicPad 4 is the world’s thinnest Android tablet

The MagicPad 4 has a 12.3-inch screen that is slightly smaller than its 13.3-inch predecessor. But it’s a minor compromise given that the new tablet now uses a 165Hz OLED display instead of an LCD. Its battery is, unsurprisingly, also a bit smaller at 10,100mAh, and while Honor hasn’t shared battery life estimates, the new OLED display could potentially help it outlast last year’s model. Thanks to everything smaller and thinner, the new MagicPad 4 weighs about 145 grams less than the MagicPad 3.

The tablet is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset paired with either 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage or 16GB and 512GB. It runs MagicOS 10, based on Android 16, and you will find a 13MP camera on the back with a 9MP camera on the front. Its photography capabilities may be basic, but like last year’s model, the MagicPad 4 excels in audio with a total of eight speakers delivering a spatial audio experience. If you like to annoy other passengers on a flight by imposing the sound of the movie you’re watching on everyone around you, this tablet might be something to consider.
