A Weibo digital blogger “TedShuo” revealed on Wednesday that Huawei’s new tablet with an electronic ink screen has recently obtained 3C certification. Its model is HMW-W09, which supports 22.5 W fast charging.

Previous rumors showed that Huawei will release many new products in late December, including a new folding screen smartphone, blood pressure watches, electronic ink screen products among other items.

Previously, Huawei had applied for the registration of a series of trademarks including Matext, Petal Mail, Petal Lilty and Mate Paper. The last trademark seems to be in preparation for e-readers.

On November 1st, blogger Digital Chatting Station said, “Huawei seems to be preparing to launch an electronic ink screen tablet – MatePad Paper, running Huawei’s HarmonyOS operating system.” Subsequently, some netizens discovered that Huawei’s Wuhan Research Institute held an offline experience activity of an e-reader on November 6th. The new product was likely used in this activity.
