Honor has quietly revealed a new tablet in China. The device, named Honor Tablet GT Pro, is now available for pre-reservation on the official Chinese website. While the listing lacks extensive information about the tablet, it does indicate that it will include an "esports screen and flagship SoC."
Gaming Focused Design
This hints that the Tablet GT Pro is aimed at gamers, likely going up against the recently unveiled 2024 Lenovo Legion Y700 and RedMagic Nova. However, there’s a chance that this device might just be a rebranded version of the MagicPad 2 12.3, as the images in the listing show several similarities.
Similarities and Differences
For instance, both the Tablet GT Pro and the MagicPad 2 have the camera placement in identical positions on the back. They also feature a single rear camera and both boast a 12.3-inch screen. Nevertheless, there are some design differences on the back. The shape of the camera island, for example, is not the same.
Expected Specifications
If the Tablet GT Pro is indeed a rebranding of the MagicPad 2, it will likely be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 2. This chip is not truly a flagship SoC, but rather a high mid-range chipset that can still deliver flagship-level performance. It’s considered a strong gaming processor (the OnePlus Pad 2 with 8 Gen 3 is currently priced at $499.99 on Amazon).
The exciting part is that Honor has announced the launch date for the Tablet GT Pro, which is set for October 16. This means you won’t have to wait long to find out more about this gaming tablet.
