Honor Pad 9 was unveiled in MWC 2024, and now the company has launched the Pro version of the tablet. The Honor Pad 9 Pro boasts a new design and upgraded hardware compared to the standard model. Below you will find all the details regarding the tablet including its design, specifications, and pricing.
Design
The original Honor Pad 9 had a circular camera module on the rear, which didn’t appeal to me. However, the new Honor Pad 9 Pro seems to have an elegant design language with a pill-shaped camera cutout on the rear. The tablet looks quite clean with minimalist Honor branding at the center. The device is 6.64mm and weighs around 589 grams. Regarding color options, the Honor Pad 9 Pro is available in Starry Gray and Sky Blue.
Specifications
The latest Honor tablet features a 12.1-inch TFT LCD display that has a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. For a buttery smooth experience, the tablet has a 144Hz refresh rate.
