Huawei MediaPad X1 and MediaPad M1 Officially Announced

Huawei has just announced 2 tablets at a pre-MWC 2014 event — the MediaPad X1 which is a high-end 7-inch tablet with 4G LTE and telephony features, and the MediaPad M1 which is an entertainment-focused 8-inch device.

Read on to find out more of these 2 new tablets from Huawei.

Huawei MediaPad X1

The Huawei Media X1 pictured above is a high-end compact tablet that aims to take on the Nexus 7. It comes with a sleek looking unibody body design and boast a rather slim 7.18mm profile.

Like the Nexus 7, the MediaPad X1 comes with a 7-inch Full HD display that does 1920×1200 pixels resolution producing a respectable pixel density of 323 ppi. Apart from the high resolution, the MediaPad X1 display has a brightness of 515 nits for great outdoor screen visibility.

Powering the device is Huawei’s very own Hi-Silicon Quad-Core processor that’s clocked at 1.6GHz and mated to 2GB of RAM. Over at the back, the MediaPad X1 is equipped with a 13MP camera sourced from Sony complete with Sony’s Exmor R low light imaging technology. At the front, the X1 gets a 5MP shooter.

In terms of connectivity, the X1 supports 4G LTE connectivity and it is also capable of making phone calls. Juicing up the MediaPad X1 is a above average 5,000mAh battery which has a claimed 25 hours of running time. At time of launch, X1 runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean with its own Emotion UI 2.0 interface skin.

Next, we have the MediaPad M1 8.0 which comes with a larger 8-inch IPS display compared to the X1 but with a lower 1280×800 display resolution pushing out a meager 188 ppi. In terms of design, the M1 reminds us of the HTC One. Design isn’t the only thing that Huawei “borrowed” from HTC. The M1 also comes with dual-front speakers like the HTC One but where HTC uses Beats Audio sound processing, Huawei settled with DTS Surround Sound.

Powering the MediaPad M1 is a the same 1.6GHz Quad-Core processor as the X1 but unlike the X1, the M1 has a smaller 4,800 battery with a claimed 24 hours of non-stop web browsing. Interestingly, the M1 supports reverse charging which means you can charge your another device using the M1’s battery via a USB OTG cable which is useful when you’re in a bit of a pickle. In terms of dimensions, the M1 weighs 329 grams and is 7.9mm thick.

For photography, the M1 has a 5MP rear camera while a 1MP camera takes pictures from the front. Like the MediaPad X1, the M1 runs Android 4.2 with Emotion UI out of the box.
