At just 4.8mm, it&#8217;s incredibly thin (beating the already impressively slim 5.1mm iPad Pro by a slight margin), which, combined with its light 450g weight, means the MagicPad 4 is a massive 12.3-inch tablet that\u2019s easy to travel with and even hold comfortably in one hand.<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-18304cb8-28b3-4a36-9c16-9e2526a6ee8c-2\">Although being the thinnest tablet makes for a decent ad campaign, it\u2019s actually the wealth of other upgrades that put the Honor MagicPad 4 among the best Android tablets right now. Seriously, Honor fixed everything negative that I pointed out last year \u2014 it\u2019s almost a little uncanny.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"inline-flex items-center gap-1.5 text-sm font-article-heading capitalize leading-5 text-white whitespace-nowrap\"><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-mobile\"\/><span class=\"jwp-carousel-title-desktop\">Latest Videos From<\/span><span class=\"jwp-carousel-brand inline-flex items-center\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/media\/img\/techradar_logo_v2.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"max-h-12 w-auto\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The display is a gorgeous 3K OLED with a butter-smooth 164Hz OLED (compared to last year\u2019s less vibrant LCD) and a superb 2,400-nit peak brightness. Paired with an incredibly punchy eight-speaker stereo setup, this has become my go-to tablet for media consumption both at home and while travelling.<\/p>\n<p>With a viewing experience this good, it\u2019s almost no surprise that this is one of the few IMAX Enhanced-certified tablets on the market. An OLED panel is no small feat at this price range, too, and the vibrant colors alone put the MagicPad 4 lightyears ahead of similarly priced competitors like the OnePlus Pad 3.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.27%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A photograph of the Honor MagicPad 4 in use on a wooden table.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-1200-80.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/kdDcwFPx7SsNXJ4yxsYUJT.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)] inline\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-ece2e7d9-ec28-49f4-93a5-a7dfb022ff0b\">The divisive plastic material of the MagicPad 3 is also out, replaced with a full metal unibody chassis that looks very premium and is so much better to the touch.<\/p>\n<p>This design refresh has been paired with a subtle spec upgrade under the hood.
