Enjoy a Complete Office Suite Experience on a Tablet with the HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″ - Middle East Business News and Information
Have you ever tried using spreadsheets on a tablet? If so, you might know the frustration of cramped layouts, limited functions, and an experience that feels like a far cry from what you are used to on a PC. You can forget about essential functions like advanced formulas or pivot tables on typical stripped-down office suites made for tablets. Even basic formatting can feel like a chore, with menus buried under multiple taps and gestures that don't translate well from a PC. And don't even think about multitasking since you can't resize the windows or place where you need them. It's a similar story with everything else from presentations to documents.
But not anymore. The HUAWEI MatePad Pro 13.2″ is built for professionals who expect more. With its powerful hardware and a PC-level WPS Office experience, it bridges the gap between tablets and traditional computers, delivering a seamless, productive workflow without the usual limitations.
PC-Level WPS: A Full-Fledged Office Experience:
The MatePad Pro 13.2' is designed to serve you like a laptop with its PC-level WPS Office suite. The typical patty-cake version of mobile office apps found on tablets often lack advanced features. But the WPS app on this tablet provides a desktop-grade experience with an intuitive UI, full editing and presentation capabilities, and a familiar workflow. Anybody accustomed to working on a PC can switch to the MatePad Pro 13.2″ without having to relearn interfaces or compromise on functionality.
WPS spreadsheets, presentations, and formulas offer a nearly identical experience to their desktop counterparts, enabling seamless switching between PC and tablet for efficient work. App window resizing and hovering
Unlike traditional mobile office apps that lock users into full-screen mode, the PC-level WPS app on the MatePad Pro 13.2″ allows for flexible window resizing. Users can adjust window sizes to their preferences just as they would on a computer. Additionally, WPS windows can be freely positioned anywhere on the screen, enhancing multitasking efficiency. Multi-Window Display for Seamless Navigation
The PC-level WPS app supports multi-window display and quick switching between documents. This means users can reference multiple documents at once, work on spreadsheets while checking email, or review presentations side by side. Keyboard and Mouse Integration
While touchscreens are great for convenience, many professionals prefer the tactile feedback of a keyboard and the precision of a mouse. The Smart Magnetic Keyboard that comes with the tablet has a full-sized keyboard with large key caps and 1.5mm key travel for comfortable typing. The keyboard shortcuts function just as they would on a desktop, allowing for complex office operations with minimal effort When a mouse is connected, the tablet displays an arrow for precise selection. You can also pair it up with the HUAWEI M-Pencil for even more flexibility.
The combination of PC-level WPS and the accessory ecosystem transforms this tablet into a true productivity powerhouse. Users no longer need to choose between portability and functionality because the MatePad Pro 13.2″ offers the best of both worlds.

FINTX ensures that the financial integrations are robust, scalable, and regulatory-compliant, while WAYN strengthens last-mile authentication and secure identity verification for seamless delivery and communication. The partnership will be rolled out in phases, beginning with deployment of Botim Salary Cards to FINTX's WPS customer base, followed by remittance service integrations. Future phases will explore loyalty programs, logistics enhancements, and expanded financial and business services, making this one of the most comprehensive fintech collaborations in the region.
