One device, three uses, enjoy the ultimate experience! The innovative BMAX MaxPad I13 3-in-1 tablet lets you handle any scenario with ease
When diverse needs meet a fast-paced lifestyle, digital devices can become a "sweet burden." Every time you head out, you might feel compelled to carry a tablet, a laptop, a drawing tablet, and more. Not everyone is comfortable lugging around such a heavy load. Yet, leaving even one item behind can make life feel a little less fun—and handling unexpected work tasks becomes a struggle. In fact, in this rapidly changing world, not only do people need to be versatile, but digital products also need to have the comprehensive ability to "one against many". The innovative BMAX 3-in-1 tablet was created for exactly this purpose! Combining the functions of a tablet, a laptop, and a drawing board, it covers a wide range of needs—from multimedia entertainment and mobile office work to creative illustration—allowing you to travel light and enjoy a seamless, all-scenario experience. Mode 1: Large-screen, eye-friendly tablet for immersive entertainment On its own, the MaxPad I13 is a large-screen tablet designed for a superior visual experience. Its 13.3-inch Full HD IPS display features a 16:10 aspect ratio, 100% sRGB color gamut coverage, and 300 nits of eye-friendly brightness. With rich, vibrant colors, it delivers stunning, crystal-clear visuals—whether you are watching movies, binge-watching series, or browsing photos. It is worth mentioning that the screen uses a high-precision nano-etching AG paper-like process, which can eliminate 97% of environmental reflections. At the same time, it has passed the dual certification of low blue light and no reflection, so it can still present a clear and transparent display effect in strong light environment and will not hurt the eyes after long-term use. Ultra-slim portability is another major advantage of the I13. With a thickness of just 7.9mm and a weight of only 770g, it is effortless to hold in one hand or carry on the go.

Mode 2: Lightweight Laptop for Efficient Mobile Productivity Attach the dedicated folio case to switch the I13 into laptop mode and experience high-efficiency productivity. The case features an ergonomically designed keyboard with a generous 1.8mm key travel, offering a comfortable typing experience. It also includes a large touchpad that supports smooth, fluid multi-gesture controls, rivaling traditional thin-and-light laptops. The folio cover is foldable and supports free multi-angle adjustment, ensuring the most comfortable viewing angle whether you are working at a desk, using it on your lap, or carrying it on the go. It handles daily tasks—such as document writing, spreadsheet editing, online meetings, and multitasking with split-screen views—with ease. Its high-definition dual-camera setup also provides strong support for daily office work: the front 8-megapixel camera is clear and stable, meeting the needs of daily video calls and video conferencing; the rear 21-megapixel autofocus camera can not only clearly record life moments, but also easily complete office operations such as document scanning and document photography. Mode 3: Professional Drawing Tablet to Unleash Your Inspiration Detach the keyboard, pick up the Max I13 Pencil, and the MaxPad I13 transforms into a professional drawing tablet. The screen supports 4096 levels of high-precision pressure sensitivity—capturing nuances as fine as a strand of hair—and translates the pressure of your stroke into real-time variations in line thickness, accurately capturing every spark of creative inspiration. The "paper-like" screen offers a unique tactile resistance that mimics the feel of writing on real paper, making it perfect for illustration, digital journaling, design sketching, and classroom note-taking—allowing you to unleash your creativity anywhere, anytime. A unique system-wide palm rejection design ensures a worry-free experience; you can rest your hand naturally on the screen while drawing without triggering accidental inputs. This powerful professional drawing tablet will make you love it from the first use!
