For the rear cover, Huawei has adopted the advanced e-coating process from the aerospace and automotive sectors, which gives it a pure, creamy macaron colour. The addition of natural mica powder, which is a high-quality, eco-friendly material, creates a shimmering polish on the surface. The tablet comes in two elegant, vibrant colours: Greenery and White.
