A 94% screen-to-body ratio maximises the viewing area, while the slim 6.85 mm profile keeps the tablet portable despite its large footprint. The device weighs 789 grams and measures 312.08 × 212.02 mm.

Under the hood sits Huawei's Kirin X90A processor. The top configuration pairs it with 32GB of RAM and up to 2TB of built-in storage, delivering smooth multitasking even with heavy productivity workloads. The tablet runs HarmonyOS 5.1 out of the box. Connectivity is covered by Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, OTG support, and a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port.
