Honor MagicPad 4 Chinese Variant Leaks: 12.1-Inch 165Hz LCD Panel
TABLETS

Honor is expanding its tablet lineup with a new Chinese variant of the MagicPad 4, and the leaked specs suggest a focus on high-refresh-rate productivity and media consumption. This device targets users who prioritize screen smoothness and stylus precision over the OLED panels found in global models. Buyers looking for a large, bright display for note-taking or media should note the specific hardware choices here.

Chinese MagicPad 4 features Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and 165Hz LCD

The Chinese version of the MagicPad 4 centers on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, which differs from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip expected in the international release. Honor pairs this silicon with a 12.1-inch LCD panel that delivers a 3K resolution and runs at 165Hz. This configuration prioritizes refresh rate and pixel density, offering a different visual experience than the 12.3-inch OLED screen in the global variant.

Specifications

  • Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4
  • Display Size: 12.1-inch
  • Display Resolution: 3K
  • Display Refresh Rate: 165Hz
  • Display Type: LCD

Powering the device is a 10,100mAh battery, which matches the capacity found in the global model. The tablet includes a six-speaker system tuned for spatial audio to enhance media playback. For creative work, it supports the Magic-Pencil 4S stylus, ensuring compatibility with Honor’s latest input accessories.

Honor offers optional accessories to round out the setup, including a Bluetooth keyboard and a soft-light matte screen cover. Pre-orders for the Chinese version are already open on the Honor Mall, though exact pricing and full specifications remain unlisted in the current store entry. We looked at Honor Pad 20 Launches in China in our earlier Honor coverage, which provides context for the vendor's recent hardware strategy.

The confirmed details establish the MagicPad 4 Chinese variant as a distinct product with specific display and processor choices. Users can now secure their units through pre-order, pending the final listing of pricing details.
