  • This is a great device to read books.

  • Bag of nuts!!!!! Only got the mediapad as part of a package with O2. Should I decide to get another mediapad in the future, it will not be a huawei product!!!!! Persistently freezing up no matter if you do a online search, play games or go on Facebook. If you manage to get it to go out of what you're doing, the screen goes black and can't do anything unless you press and hold the on/off button and force close the mediapad, even then the pad doesn't work properly. It has a tendency to over heat. A solution for this is a hammer!!!!!!

  • I like this phone very mach I using with it

  • Go to settimgs and select "Wi-Fi". Device will show all available internet connections. Select your own SSID and enter password then click on connect. Device will then connect to your own internet connection.

  • Bought this recently for my 21 year old son as a birthday present. He's never off it so I assume it must be good. I have never had so much peace and quiet, very highly recommended. Also, it is so tough compared to my Samsung tablet. 9/10 for me

  • got a call from somebody at o2 selling this tablet and I was sceptical at first but after it arrived I was so impressed. got a deal with 1gb of 4g data and the tablet for £18 per month so I use it everywhere now. unreal value for money. there are als plenty of upgrades now so it runs like lightning

  • using since 1.5 year best tablet ever i had use dell samsung lenovo tab but huawei is best one in terms of battry performance display and look

  • Got one love it but getting those word looks during talktimes is fun Great phone/tablet for the price

  • OK, I'm a little confused. This has an app called Dialer, and they talk of a talktime. is it a phone or a tablet?

  • My Take

  • I bought it as Huawei T1 Wifi 16GB, but I so that realy it is a 8GB internal memory.

  • best experience by far...epspecially with geo tagging..enables u to see where pictures where taken...so hubbys no lien to them wifey...especially with geo tagging an where your selfies where taken

  • its being year now with this. i use it more than 8 hous in a day. its fabolus and wonderful tablet

  • The tablet specs are good (for the price) but there is no software support and is still on android 4.3. I won't buy another Huawei tablet.

  • Dear all friends, I have been using this tablet for 8 months now and I have had a good experience with it. It is a robust and a beautiful tablet. For those of us who need a daily routine android tablet which can fulfill our Internet needs through WiFi and 3G, this tablets cover all. Working people and students can really extract the full potential of this mid range tablet. IT IS WORTH THE VALUE FOR MONEY. I have used it, rooted it, messed it up twice and fixed this tablet on my own using guides from the net as if it was meant to be for it. Although it is 4.3 JB, it is sufficient for many apps that we require on a daily basis. Youtube , DOCs editing, tool apps, root related appls, excessive downloading of large files in softwares, multimedia and entertainment files is a good go for this tablet. The battery is extremely sufficient . It does not run out like on other androids. All Gadgets are man made and errors and technical malfunctions can can occur but so far I prefer this tablet to any other. $180- $200 for this tablet is a great deal. I am in love with this tablet. 3G download speed of 42/mbps is great. GSM calling and 12 out of 16 GB storage, come on people what else do we want.Those who intend to buy this tablet, go for it. Huawei surely does not let us down here.
