Huawei Adds Affordable, Family-Friendly HUAWEI MediaPad M5 Lite To Its Tablet Line-Up 

Equipped with a Fingerprint Sensor, Eye Comfort Mode and Kid’s Corner, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite 

provides parents with peace of mind, while providing a wonderland for kids   

LAS VEGAS – Jan. 7, 2019 – Today at CES 2019, Huawei adds the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 Lite to its 

award-winning portfolio of flagship tablets. Built with families in mind, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite 

delivers family-friendly features such as Kid’s Corner, advanced Eye-comfort Mode and a built-in 

fingerprint sensor to enable parental controls. Featuring the premium design, display, audio and 

performance qualities found in its flagship tablets, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite is exceptionally priced 

at $299 and comes with the latest HUAWEI M-Pen Lite stylus. The tablet comes in Space Gray and will be 

available late January at U.S. retailers including Amazon and Newegg. 

Sleek Design 

Light and thin, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite features a metal unibody design with diamond-cut edges 

and is refined with sandblasting technology. With 2.5D curved glass on the front and quad-curved edges 

on the back, it has a comfortable in-hand feel.   

The HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite display is 10.1-inches with a Full HD IPS screen supporting 1920 x 1200 

pixels. It also has ClariVu 5.0, Huawei’s industry-leading display enhancement technology that employs 

intelligent algorithms to adjust the contrast and color saturation for video and image viewing.  

Family-Friendly  

As children are frequent tablet users, Huawei created Kid’s Corner to provide a customized environment 

for children while enabling parents to set time limits and control access to content. The built-in 

fingerprint sensor enables parents to create unique user profiles and set access parameters in advance 

to make it easy and convenient to share a tablet among the family.    

To protect the eyesight of young tablet users, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite has a Distance sensor, 

Posture Detect sensor, Ambient Light sensor and Blue Ray Filter. When the tablet is less than 9.8 inches 

away from the face, it will automatically detect and provide audio and visual guidance to keep a child’s 

eyesight at an optimal distance from the display. Posture Detect sensor automatically identifies when 

the tablet is viewed at a lying angle and provides posture guidance. The Blue Ray Filter mitigates eye 

strain by blocking out blue light, and the Ambient Light sensor automatically adapts the color and 

brightness of the display according to the environment for the best setting to prevent eye strain. 

Powerful Performance 

The HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite is powered by HUAWEI Kirin 659 octa-core chipset, runs on Android 8.0 

with EMUI 8.0, and has 3GB of RAM and 32GB of ROM with expandable memory capacity of up to 

256GB. Outfitted with HUAWEI QuickCharge technology that delivers a full charge in less than three 

hours, the long-lasting 7,500 mAh battery provides 13 hours of video playback, 8.5 hours of gaming and 

an impressive 55 hours of music.*  

While most tablets only offer one or two speakers, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite is equipped with quad 

speakers co-engineered with the world-renowned Harman Kardon elite Golden Ear acoustic engineering  

team. Combined with the dedicated smart power amplifier chipset and Huawei’s Histen 5.0 audio 

enhancement technology, the HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite delivers a rich and powerful 3D surround 

sound effect.  

The HUAWEI MediaPad M5 lite comes with the HUAWEI M-Pen lite stylus for a complete out-of-the-box 

experience. The stylus was thoughtfully designed for style, use and practicality. It is light and slim with a 

balanced weight, while the silver gray metal body has a texture that enhances the in-hand feel. With 

2,048 layers of pressure sensitivity, consumers can take notes, make edits or sketch illustrations easily. 

The stylus also features a clip for easy storage.
