70% Huawei MediaPad M5 and M5 Pro Review

Huawei has a contender with the M5 Pro, thanks to the tablet's great battery life, nice display and good performance. The MediaPad M5, however, is sunk by its short battery life and comparatively small sound.

The Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro breathes much needed life into the premium Android tablet world, toting a pen in the process. It’s also a good tablet, despite imperfect software in places and a reliance on a keyboard case for it to be a true productivity tool.

Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro Review
Source: Android Guys
But overall, we feel as though the MediaPad M5 Pro is more than the sum of its parts. It doesn’t have the most powerful processor, the most ram, storage, or the biggest battery. The software isn’t the cleanest or most feature-packed, but we loved every moment with the Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro. From getting some work done to watching way too many Casey Neistat videos on YouTube, it was a pleasure to use.

Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro review: A decent Android tablet, but it's no iPad
Source: Zdnet.com
Huawei makes great hardware and tries to bring a good Android tablet to the enterprise. If you must use an Android tablet for work then the MediaPad M5 Pro is a decent option. However, if you are just looking for the best tablet overall, then look at an Apple iPad.

It may not be “Pro” enough for some, but this tablet is fun to use and has a great pressure sensitive stylus.

The Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro is a tablet that promises a lot, but doesn't quite deliver on its "pro" name in every department.

The MediaPad M5 Pro looks fantastic and performs fairly well, but it's let down by small details like the shoddy official keyboard and Android's limited productivity options. Still, it's cheaper than most of its comparable rivals, and will keep most users happy.

Pricing for the MediaPad M5 starts at 349 Euros and ranges upwards to 599 Euros depending on size, storage, connectivity, and whether you opt for the Pro or standard versions. As we mentioned previously, when it comes to Android tablets, the amount of options out there are very limited, but the MediaPad M5 line is a very solid offering from Huawei. These are some of the best Android tablets we’ve seen in a while. They’re well designed with gorgeous displays and fantastically loud speakers that make them great for multimedia purposes. They certainly live up to the MediaPad name, and if you’re into turning your tablet into an on-the-go work station, the M5 Pro offers the appropriate peripherals for both work and play.

Huawei Mate 10 vs. Mate 10 Pro: Which Mate should you get?
Source: Hardware Zone
Having said that, it’s rather unfortunate that Huawei is making consumers choose one feature over another. Instead of coming up with multiple variants, Huawei should’ve concentrated their efforts to craft the perfect smartphone – one that would overthrow the competition in one fell swoop, and one that embodies all the great features of both the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro.

90% Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro Review: A premium Android rival to Apple’s iPad Pro
Source: Recombu
If you’re after an iPad Pro-style device which runs Android instead, the MediaPad M5 Pro ticks most of those boxes and adds a few advantages of its own. You get the same neat keyboard cover and stylus pen setup, with the added bonus that the pen is actually bundled in the box. That sharp display is perfect for media, while performance and battery life are also top notch.

There’s even more value if you’re already rocking a Huawei smartphone. They work well together. Regardless of the phone you own, chances are you’ll easily fall in love (and stay that way) if you choose to buy this slate. Whether you actually need it or not is another question.

Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro initial review: Stylus in tow, is this Android's answer to the iPad Pro?
Source: Pocket Lint
In the same breath the M5 Pro isn't especially enthralling; there's no distinctive unique selling point... unless, of course, the to-be-announced price kicks the competition to the kerb. We'll know more about that come Huawei's press conference at Mobile World Congress 2018.
