Hands-on review: MWC 2014: Huawei MediaPad X1

For Premium design Impressive spec sheet Powerful cameras Against Screen not a sharp as expect UI is childish

The Huawei MediaPad X1 is one of two tablets the Chinese firm has launched at MWC 2014, but this 7-inch slate has much more going for it than its 8-inch brother the MediaPad M1.

A quick flick through the spec sheet for the MediaPad X1 and it looks to be a strong contender against the likes of the Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HDX who currently dominate the small form factor tablet market.

The MediaPad X1 packs in a 1.6GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, microSD slot, 4G connectivity and a 5000mAh battery - far bigger than the 3950mAh offering in the Nexus 7.

Even the IPS screen is up to scratch, boasting a full HD 1200 x 1920 resolution with 322ppi pixel density keeping it in line with the competition.
