Since 2020, Huawei has not launched any new smartphones or tablets in India, although it did release a few wearables in the country during this time. Now, a new teaser on the Indian e-commerce platform Flipkart suggests that Huawei may be preparing to return to the Indian tablet market after nearly six years.
Here is more to it.
Huawei Teases the Launch of a New Tablet in India via Flipkart
A new teaser has appeared on the Indian e-commerce website Flipkart from Huawei, confirming that a new tablet is on its way to the Indian market. However, the microsite does not reveal much. It only shows the message “Thank You for visiting this page, Launching Soon”, along with a stylised graphic showing multiple tablet-like devices floating or stacked at angles, and what appears to be a detachable keyboard. Additionally, another poster shows the tagline “Handy All-Rounder” coming soon only on Flipkart, which hints that it will be a Flipkart-exclusive product.
When zooming in on the graphic, it matches the one shown on the Huawei MatePad 11.5 (2025) product page, which also shows the same tagline “Handy All-Rounder”. This confirms that the tablet is likely the Huawei MatePad 11.5 (2025), which will be launching soon in India. As for the specifications, it is likely to bring the same spec sheet as the global variant. At the moment, this is all that the microsite reveals, but more details and the launch date are expected to be updated in the coming days.
The last tablet and smartphone launched in India by Huawei were the Huawei MatePad T8 tablet in 2020 and the Huawei P30 Pro smartphone in 2019. With this new teaser, Huawei seems to be preparing a return, at least to the tablet market in India.
