IFA 2015 | Huawei MediaPad M2 8.0 tablet to cost 280 Euros at launch
In addition to showcasing the Mate S with Force Touch and the G8 smartphones, Huawei is also planning to launch the MediaPad M2 8.0 this month. The Android tablet was announced in May, but details had been quiet as the manufacturer was waiting until IFA to reveal final specifications and prices.
The MediaPad M2 8.0 will launch as two separate Wi-Fi and LTE models. Specifications for both models include:
- 8-inch IPS display
- 1920 x 1200 resolution
- Quad-core HiSilicon Kirin 930 SoC
- ARM Mali-T628 MP4 GPU
- 2 GB RAM
- 16 GB eMMC
- Rear 8 MP w/ auto-focus + Flash, Front 2 MP
- 4800 mAh battery
- Stereo speakers
- Android 5.0 Lollipop with EMUI 3.0.5
Expect the Wi-Fi and LTE configurations to cost 280 Euros and 350 Euros, respectively, with their default Silver color.
Furthermore, Huawei will launch a premium Gold-colored version of the MediaPad M2 8.0 sometime later this year with largely the same specifications as above, but with 3 GB RAM and 32 GB eMMC instead. This higher-end variant is expected to weigh 310 grams and will cost 310 Euros and 400 Euros for the Wi-Fi and LTE models, respectively.
