Important update: this model is updated to Android version 4.4 KitKat.
Check the availability of the update version in your region on the manufacturer’s website.

Android version and market relevance

In February 2014, Huawei introduced its new tablet Huawei MediaPad X1. This new model supports work in mobile networks (look also at other tablets with support for 3G/LTE) that runs 4.2 Jelly Bean and, according to the manufacturer, will be updated to a more recent version Android 4.4 KitKat.

If you think that for today, such an android tablet on the version of 4.2 Jelly Bean is already outdated, then we advise you to look at the DROID-tablets in our catalog, where we collected a list of devices on the latest version of Android.

Screen, body and battery

LTPS IPS LCD touchscreen with a diagonal of 7 inches is installed on the front panel of the Huawei MediaPad X1 body, 7.2 mm thick.

The battery in Huawei MediaPad X1 is set to 5 000 mAh. We can say that by today′s standards this volume is not enough, and you will miss one charge per day of active work.

Main camera and selfie camera

You can shoot photos and videos on the Huawei MediaPad X1 tablet on the main camera 13 MP and on the front 5 MP. We tried to divide all the tablets in the catalog into segments and this model with such a main camera got into the top segment. At the moment this is one of the best cameras on the market, so we advise you to buy this tablet and enjoy the quality of photos and videos shot on his camera.

Processor and Internal Memory

The tablet performance is affected by a lot of factors, and even more so on the android-tablet, where the developer of the Android operating system and the device manufacturer are absolutely different companies and each develops with its strategy in the market. As a result, in the tablet you get a hodgepodge: it′s like a “clean” Android, but with a shell from the manufacturer; as though only the necessary applications, but also many unnecessary from the manufacturer. Very often Android-installed apps by default, which you do not even use, are still running and working, they occupy part of the RAM and processor time of your tablet. This slows the work of other applications and the battery charge is wasted.

So, in Huawei MediaPad X1 is installed 4-core processor on the chipset Hisilicon Kirin 910. As for RAM, the memory module is used here 2 GB.

You can store your photos, videos, music and applications both on the built-in tablet memory, and on memory cards microSD up to 32 GB. You are only available 16 GB built-in memory, so you need to be more careful about what you store on the device.

Price for Huawei MediaPad X1: buy or not to buy?

$350 is the price for Huawei MediaPad X1 at the start of sales. For this money you get a tablet with a good processor, not a large touchscreen, with a very cool main camera that makes amazing photos and videos. And with such characteristics, the tablet got into the price segment “Middle class tablets from $300 to $400”, where you can choose any other similar model for a plus or minus the same price.

And how important is the battery capacity in your tablet? In this model, the battery is very weak. We advise you to look at real long-livers — tablets with a powerful battery.

Buy Huawei MediaPad X1 will be available after the beginning of official sales. We always recommend that you look at the tablet before you buy it to make sure that it fits you in all respects — screen size, case materials and build quality, speed and smoothness of the interface, photo and video quality, etc. After you choose a model, then you already look at the different offers from the sellers — you can buy it on the Internet, you can and in the offline electronics supermarket. Buy where you prefer, where there are stocks and discounts, and where the seller guarantees the service of the device under warranty.

We picked up these models at a similar price.
