How to Fix Screen Flickering on HUAWEI MatePad 12 X (2025)

Adjusting Display Settings

Optimizing Brightness Levels

• 📉 Lowering screen brightness to very low levels can sometimes make flickering more apparent, especially when viewed through a camera.

• ✅ Finding a nice in-between brightness level is generally recommended for optimal viewing and to reduce flickering.

Performing a Soft Reset

• 🔄 Continue holding until the screen goes black, indicating the Huawei tablet is soft resetting.
• ⏳ The device will typically reset within about 1 minute.

Checking for Software Updates

• 💻 As a last resort, go to Settings, then System & Updates, and Software Update.
• 🔍 Check if there are any newest updates available that might resolve display bugs.

When to Seek Technical Support

• 🆘 If screen flickering persists after trying the above steps, it's advisable to contact technical support.
• 🔧 Persistent flickering may indicate physical damage to the screen, which software fixes cannot address.
