10-core Intel CPUs, 16 GB of RAM and a 120Hz 16:10 screen in a tablet. Presented Huawei MateBook E 2023
Huawei introduced the MateBook E 2023 tablet. The novelty received the previous generation Intel Core processors and costs from $1,070.
The heart of the tablet is the 10-core Core i5-1230U or Core i7-1260U. In general, there is no point in being upset that Huawei did not use more recent CPUs, since technically there are almost no differences between analogs from the Raptor Lake line. The tablet has 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB or 1 TB in the form of an SSD. The top version is priced at $1,140.
The novelty also received a 120-Hz OLED screen with a diagonal of 12.6 inches with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. The battery capacity is 42 Wh, and another 10.8 Wh offers a battery in a branded keyboard. The novelty is running Windows 11.

Global HyperOS released for Xiaomi Pad 5 tablet
Xiaomi Pad 5 was released in August 2021 with Android 11 and was supposed to eventually receive Android 13 with the MIUI 14 interface. But MIUI 14 will no longer be available for this model – the latest HyperOS system has been released instead. Moreover, this time we are not talking about the Chinese version of the tablet, but about the global one.
Xiaomi Pad 5 users outside of China have started receiving the HyperOS beta version number 1.0.1.0.TKXMIXM. For now, it is only available to Mi Pilot program members. If no critical bugs are found, the system will be released as an over-the-air update for all device users. The update size is 1.6 GB.
HyperOS version 1 will be the last official software for Xiaomi Pad 5; there will be no more global updates for this model.

Samsung promises eight years of software and Android updates. The company has expanded support for corporate tablets and smartphones
Samsung now offers one of the longest supports on the market for a number of its latest smartphones: up to 7 years of software updates, and this includes the operating system. But the company went further and increased this period to 8 years! True, not for smartphones.
Tablets will receive updates for 8 years, but not all, but only those aimed at the corporate market. Smartphones for the same market will have 7 years of updates. So far, the only tablet for which 8 years of support has already been confirmed is the Galaxy Tab Active5. The Galaxy Xcover7 smartphone offers 7 years. At the same time, at the launch of these devices they announced 5 years of support.
For the enterprise market, software support is often much more important than for the consumer market. As for tablets, they are replaced less often than smartphones, so Samsung’s actions here are quite logical.
