Key Highlights
The HONOR Pad 10 is centered around its large 12.1-inch 2.5K display. The 120Hz refresh rate, 249 PPI, DCI-P3 wide color gamut and 1.07 billion-color specification make it designed for media consumption, browsing, studying and multitasking.
Display & Design
The tablet features a 12.1-inch TFT LCD IPS display with a 2560×1600 resolution, 249 PPI and a 120Hz refresh rate. HONOR specifies 500 nits typical brightness, a 1500:1 contrast ratio and an 88% screen-to-body ratio.
The display supports 1.07 billion colors and a DCI-P3 wide color gamut. HONOR also lists eye-comfort technologies intended to make extended viewing more comfortable.
The tablet measures approximately 277.07 × 179.28 × 6.29mm and weighs about 525g including the battery.

Audio & Entertainment
The HONOR Pad 10 uses a six-speaker system and supports HONOR Spatial Audio. The large 12.1-inch 2.5K screen and 120Hz refresh rate complement the audio hardware for movies, streaming, music and gaming.
The tablet is therefore positioned more as a large-screen entertainment and productivity device than as a compact tablet designed for one-handed use.
Cameras & Video Calls
The HONOR Pad 10 has an 8MP autofocus rear camera and an 8MP fixed-focus front camera. The front camera is intended primarily for video calls and everyday tablet photography.
Tablet cameras are generally less central to the experience than on smartphones, and the Pad 10's feature set is more focused on its display, audio, battery and productivity capabilities.
Battery & Charging
Battery endurance varies according to brightness, refresh rate, applications, Wi-Fi usage, video playback and other settings.
Connectivity & Features
The HONOR Pad 10 supports Wi-Fi 6 with 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity and Bluetooth 5.3. HONOR's specifications list support for a range of Bluetooth audio codecs including SBC, AAC, LDAC, aptX and aptX HD.
The tablet uses USB Type-C for wired connectivity and charging. Supported features can vary according to region and software version.
