Huawei MediaPad X2 - User Reviews

  • I've owned mine since it came out in March 2015 and now its more than 4 years old and still giving me the same dazzling performance as Day 1. There's nothing else like it on the market and can't understand why Huawei won't release an updated version. But for me while it lasts why update what is already the complete package. Everything from daily navigation to acting as the best Kindle reader I've ever owned. I believe there was some buyer resistance because of perceived size issues which is a real furphy when you get used to this gem. No late model smart phone I've seen and used comes anywhere close to providing such a complete package in one device. So afraid of not being able to replace it I've taken out the insurance of buying a replacement screen and battery whilst they're still available. IMHO makes any iPhone look like a toy!..lol

  • I'm loving it » MediaPad X2 I have been using this phone for 3 years and neither does it have battery problem nor does it have a hang, and the thing to see in it is that the net fast runs in it and its WiFi is also very good.

  • The best phablet made to date dollar per dollar.

  • I presented this device to my wife in December 2016. She is still happy to own this phone. He is still as good as new, the battery works fine. And now there is no alternative to this device. And she disagrees with less size device. Very, very cool phone.

  • Mediapad x2 and next Honor note 10 agree with you.

  • I agree 100%

  • This phablet its crazy value.I have it from september 2016 everyday open and i use it like primary phone watching movies u tube,phone calls and more other thinks.The battery are still strong and no lag from the phablet at all.My next phone is propably Honor note 10.They are not any other phones at the end of 2018 that offer long battery life very big screen fast speed and good quality cameras.

  • The best phone I ever had !!! Excellent in all aspects ! Over 3 years and still working like its new. Cannot wait for its successor. Well done Huawei

  • I think honor note 10 are also replaced from mediapad x2, or honor note 10 name as mediapad x3.

  • Really its the best phone i get it Please when we cam have the X3

  • Where is the successor of this amazing mediapad x2? Is it coming? or not? waiting for it!

  • Speed up the launch of the X3

  • wow, I can even connect my seagate 2T slimdirve HD to this phone. Just need to plug in the microusb to usb adapter into the usb plug. Other phones even with OTG cannot do this. This is because X2 can also function as a powerbank so it gives the HD power to connect. My problem is this phone doesn't have LTE 2 or 4 for USA and the HSPP+ no longer kicks in because of t-mobile's upgrading in the field. Come on Huawei! Where is the X3? This phone/tablet is the best form factor bar none after fruitless searching all phone models.

  • It will be 18:9 display, not 16:9 like Mediapad x2, so it won't be good for surfing web or reading ebook like what Mediapad can offer.

  • Now that there are rumours of a new 7 inches phablet by Xiaomi, the Xiaomi mi max 3, it would be a good moment for the launch of the Huawei mediapad x3. Don't you think, guys?

  • yea.. but only if it mathers, lets say not all needs gaming

  • mine does have, i have 32gb version

  • yes

  • yes, but you must check that in setings

  • So guys, is this a wrong question to ask on 360 deg videos and gyroscope? Why I dont get any response?

  • Don't need a sim card? You ought to just use a tablet then. On another note, this X2 phone also has OTG function which means that you can take your USB stick, or SD card reader and connect via micro USB and it will read it like a drive. I now take photos and video with a micro 4/3 lens camera, place the micro SD into a USB drive storage with a micro usb adapter and my X2 phone can read, copy like another drive. Don't know why it is hard to find this cheap little usb/micro usb adapter because it's so useful. I have a Cruz 256GB usb drive stick from Costco for only $40 and with the little adapter can plug into the X2 which can read, copy, paste the Cruz 256GB stick.

  • I read in some specs that the micro sd can be as high as 128GB which is what I have installed in my X2 alongside with the SIM card. So maybe it cannot read a 256GB card.

  • It was very interesting in what you did with the sim and sd cards. Is it possible to use both slots for sd cards? I dont need the sim card for the device to be a phone, I need the storage space. Thanks for any suggestions.

  • Exactly how do you convert the sim slot to take sd card?

  • So, there is no way to view 360degree videos on X2? I dont see accelerometer related info on the phone as well

  • Is the Best Smartphone in the World

  • Certainly the best 7 inch phone or tablet in the world, although it is already two and a half years old. When is a successor coming, Huawei?

  • i have bought this media pad since 2 years and during this time my little children have rapped with their fingers and brought it down and .... but this media pad is very strong and has good material ..i think it is best media pad that i had in my life

  • About my ghost touch problem. Got it solved. Due to rain and moisture build up while staying in my pocket, there was ghost touching problems at the upper part just below ear speaker. I was really bummed because even 2 years later, there is no X3 nor anything else better. The MediaPad T2 7.0 Pro comes close but it's a tad bigger and plastic and a snapdragon 615 which I'm not so sure. So I stopped by the corner phone shop repair and begged the guy to just open up the phone and clean the connectors. He did and charged me 10 dollars and wow, it's fixed.

  • Hi Guys, I have been using this for the last 6 months and X2 I must say is the best device I have used so far. Am waiting for X3. However, the only thing I am disappointed about is that, I am unable to see the 360 degree videos on youtube. I haven't had a response to my mail seeking to know on the Gyroscope. Were any of you able to see 360^0 videos please? If so could you tell what settings need to be tweaked to do so? Thanks in advance for your help.

  • First try micro sd card only to see if it is properly reading. Then you can try both microSD and nano sim card together. I've sanded down the nano sim card just a little with very fine (>500) sand paper with only about 10 rubs. Nano sim card first seats into tray, then microSD on top. When sliding tray into phone, make sure sim card doesn't slide out of alignment, particularly sliding towards outside edge as you are "jamming" the tray into phone. Need to power off/on instead of simple restart for phone to recognize both sim cards and microSD. I've already done this with 32GB sdcard, then switched to 64GB sdcard, then switched up to 128GB sdcard. After a few harsh phone drops, the micro SD card would sometimes jar out of alignment and need to be reset Still super happy with my phone, but recently after exposure to rain water, my upper middle touch screen just below ear speaker would start ghost touching. Really upset because I still don't see any new phone that can replace my trusty, so functional 7inch phone. For two years, no new generation model to the X2.

  • Very good phone to read epub and surf the net, a too small to really read pdf for long. The battery is awsome. Much more than 2 full days if you read and surf all the time. The size is a false issue, you get used very fast to this handset. Also, it is quite robust : mine fell in the stairs and the screen had nothing. Once you get used to a 7" there is no turn back. Any phone for me is 7" or is not considered.

  • I have a question for Berri. I have the mediapad X2 and having trouble installing the SD card. I installed the Nano sim in the upper slot no problem. But the 256 micro sd card will not read. I also sanded it slightly on that top "bump" inserted it in the bottom slot on the mediapad and it still won't read. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Bill

  • I've been using this X2 phone since 2015 and I still love it to this very day. Back in Nov 2015 I very slightly sanded my 2nd sim card, 64GB microSD, and small nub bump in slot entrance. And have been using all 3 (2 sim cards, 1 SD card) together since without a hitch. Jan 2016 upped my SD card to 128GB (sanded down the bump ridge). In USA T-mobile only get HSPA+ but still good speed such as smooth youtube viewing. I constantly browse for new phones, but after all these years, this is my best and favorite. You just can't beat the smallest, lightest full 7 inch dual sim phone that fits in my pocket. People say it is too big for a phone, but they carry a bulky ipad with them. The Huawei X2 is still the one ring that rules them all. Of course , in my humble opinion.

  • One more question. My phone has chinese apps. How do i remove chinese settings from the phone please?

  • I bought this phone in the thanksgiving sale. The phone is awesome! I have one question for you guys. The specs here says there is gyro in Mediapad X2, but i couldnt find it in my GEM-703L. How do i find it please? Also, would like to ask if anyone has seen 360 degrees videos and is working on X2? I tried youtube videos, but my head movement is not detected and hence the 360 videos don't work. Has anybody tried that? Please guide on how to use that on my phone? Thanks

  • I bought this phone in January of 2016 after a ton of research. It did not disappoint. Fast processing speed, quickest downloads I've ever experienced from a phone, superior audio, fantastically massive 7" screen size and brightness, fits in my jacket pocket or baggy jeans, battery is long lasting, and it has a premium fit and feel. The camera takes great pictures and is good enough in low light. Look, it doesn't run 4G on AT&T, but unlike my old Samsung phone, it doesn't drop calls. It is a heavy phone for holding when on a call, but I mostly use a bluetooth headset so this is usually a non-issue. No fingerprint sensor and no NFC, but I don't want/need those "fad" technologies. Plus, you can transfer files and information through WiFi direct. Huawei did some work for Google on their Nexus and Pixel phones, but this phone is so far ahead of its time. It is a GEM-702L version running on Lollipop and, while I wish Huawei would update this phone to Nougat, it doesn't matter that much. Honestly, I've never had a phone that felt like an extension of my soul...but this phone literally feels that way. I know it's weird but I truly love it. If it ever broke, I would get another on as they are only $373 on ebay right now. There is absolutely no other product out there that can replace it, (Sorry Lenovo Phab 2 Pro but you're just not in the same league - even with Tango). If Huawei ever makes an X3 (PLEASEEEEE) I would snap it up in an instant!

  • This whole thing is nice and awesome. The only thing i dont like is screen recording. It also record the background sounds instead of the system sound. Landscape screen recording has bugs, it shows successfully recorded but when you open the file it shows blk screen with background sounds only. Hopefully Huawei can do something with this error. Multi-tasking also has to update. Not that users friendly and very limited to some apps only.

  • yes

  • does this phone use 4G ???

  • The phone is awesome! Great hardware and excellent performance. In the USA you are on your own but if you can manage installing all Google apps, you will be thrilled with this phone. Best phone I've owned!

  • Support is ok. Bought with 5.0 now ...Running Android 6.0 without hassle thxs to auto update setting via WLAN and regularly I notice automatic updates

  • Do not wait for support or upgrades when you buy a Huawei device.

  • I have the 702L too but selecting update does nothing, how can i get android 6.0 and emui 4? I still have android 5.0.1 and emui 3.0.5 Thanks for any help.

  • if we talk about huawei support that mean only thing (shit)

  • I have a problem with the processor warms, the touch panel go crazy. Always touch sensors on the processor's heat. When it cools down the processor, the touch panel works well again. while the processor is warm, the phone unusable. He lives an independent life :)

  • Just Got My X2 702L Yesterday Bnib im running Emui 4 & 6.0 After update. Man this tablet/Phablet is Awsome And i mean Awsome. ..Thanks Huawei

  • Thanks, my comment seemed much too early. Yes I just know that the 3g/4g function can be swapped between the slot. I can use the sim 1 as data source and simultaneously use sim 2 for expansion card.

  • Hi William, you wont get upgrade to marshmallow for 701 version. Unfortunately Lollipop 5.0.1 is here max., but you can upgrade Your MediaPad version to 703 version. Details you can find on xda developers forum.

  • Yes sXve, I use it exactly you write. One microSIM for calls, internet (4G) etc. and second card-drawer I use for microSD card with movies, pictures, music etc.

  • If I were to buy a Huawei Honor X2 7" could I use one slot for a 4G micro sim card (for calls & texts) and the other slot for a micro SD card (for videos , music, photos?)

  • No upgrades for X2 yet? My X2 is 701L and it is Android 5.0.

  • I had same problem too, email Huawei but no response. But couple months ago I found solution from web site saying it's something to do with APN setting. Followed their instructions and now both SIM slots can support WiFi hotspot.

  • The Mediapad X2 is 3g and 4g compatible and enabled. But there are three models with different 3g and 4g frequency bands for different regions, so be sure to choose the right one for your region to get the right band compatibility with your region. Details are on the Huawei website under the specs for the device. I own the EU version and love it, though I wish they'd released newer Android version upgrades. Still on Android 5.1 with Emui 3

  • I havee the honor x2 32gb and i use sim one only and i get 4g you should look into it further

  • I need tiz mobile as Emi Payment mode I am in India Tamil Nadu (State) Whether iz it possible....??

  • hi bro, i am in australia, mine is gem-702l, i did not get update. still in 5.0.1

  • mine is 702l, australia. i did not get upgrade to marshmallow.

  • best audioplayer for mediapad is JETAUDIO PLUS. Try it bro.

  • Hauwei allows you to change the this in settings, my Mate 8 is the same way. I have two providers the drawback is they both can't be 4G at the same time. I love my phone. You can change SIM 1 to SIM2 or visa versa, the LTE technology goes with the change.

  • Sheesh you should've gone for the 32GB variant.

  • Just received my Huawei X2, fast, elegant, beautiful, almost perfect. White color with 16gb internal storage. But I'm really disappointed by the fact that the slot for the expansion memory uses the slot 2 which is used for the SIM card for the 3G and 4g as well. I can't understand how Huawei people do this. When you want to expand your storage for pics, music, or videos etc, you must use that slot then you're left with slot 1 which only uses 2g which I believe now is useless for a smartphone/tablet. Basically you CAN'T expand the storage if you want to use the 3G or 4g connection for your device. What is worse that even I haven't started downloading apps the internal storage is only left about 5gb, the installed apps already take 10gb! I know somebody has said that around here but I want to confirm so that people can see this to buy the 32gb version (which of course costs more) or look somewhere else. I previously used Samsung tab 4 7 inch (T231), and given the X2 price but this limited storage I can't say it's a real upgrade.

  • thank you for your input. your bad experience is my good luck. Knowing this about the 2G vs 4G slots will now, stop me from this purchase. thank you thank you.

  • put whatsapp into safe apps and it will work as expected

  • That's correct. And only the 4G SIM slot works fine with WiFi Hotspot, the 2G SIM doesn't work. I sent an email to Huawei about this issue but no response.

  • Question please, did you face any problem on receiving notifications from wahtsapp, viber or messanger ... etc.?!! I have to open the app on background to receive its related notifications, and if not I won't receive it!!!! As in many Huawei versions this problem is exist like Honor 7 which I had before. Thanks.

  • Thanks for your kind reply and interest. Another question please, did you face any problem on receiving notifications from wahtsapp, viber or messanger ... etc.?!! I have to open the app on background to receive its related notifications, and if not I won't receive it!!!! As in many Huawei versions this problem is exist like Honor 7 which I had before. Thanks.

  • Yes it does have led notification light

  • My honor X2 after software update restarted and only has number keyboard and no letters so I cannot type my password how do I get out of it

  • My honor x2 is problem only can use 2g now if u turn on to 3g or 4g the connection will lost how to settle please anyone can help I'm in Singapore Thanks

  • In mediapad X2, please I need a reply from one have it. did it have any led sensor for coming notifications ??? awaiting your kind feedback. Thanks.

  • If your google play store doesn't connect then you need to go to reset and do a reset.This will delete everything in the phone and as your phone starts afresh after the reset you should key in your google email address at this point.if you pass and hope to key in your email address later then google play store won't connect.mail me for all your technical questions.do this and you're sorted.

  • Update your drivers.

  • Hi I did give my wife a x2 . she never compains about it . the battery stays for a day , sure google play store is in the pack arabic is supported newer version???? In 7" i did not find overall a nice powerfull tool made for fun . the camara is good but far from perfect. Sound is realy good . only thing my wife complains about that the phablet is heavy in weight . the octacore will never freeze and the phablet keeps running . sure OTG support so you can connect a Usb stick for backup or looking movies. A nice tool to have fun with. Br. Hendrik

  • I have honor x2 and I have to agree that camera is not great, for tablet standarts yes,but I could rely more on my old Iphone. This one really has a problem with focus and its hard to take fast shots. Also it is annoying that sometimes although it is on focus it appears blurry and loads completely only when you view the image again and wait a bit. So you never know if the shot is indeed blurry or it will be clear once you open the photo again and wait it to load. Another bad thibg. There are 2 sim card slots and only one of them can be used to extend the memory, but if you do so you are left with the other sim slot that support only 2G, I dont know how I overlooked this!Maybe it is honor version to blame, but I really feel stupid that I missed this. Basically if you want to use it as a normal phone you cannot extend the memorry , otherwise your are stuck with 2G. If I think about it it is kind of useless now.. :(

  • I don't reeceve notifications from Viber or watssap after some time in my phone. I have tried everything. Any help please;

  • Is there an official Marshmallow upgrad available for 701?

  • i have got 703L, and i am in Australia.

  • I didn't get the marshmallow upgrade yet :(

  • how? where are you?

  • Which version do you have ?

  • Which version do you have? 701 702 703

  • Upgraded to marshmallow. Great!

  • The x2 has one of the best cameras around and 32gb not enough even with an xd card - really? Try using an iphone!

  • Is it available in Lebanon?

  • marshmallow updated

  • Thx my friend, sad for that i have 2 sim

  • Yesterday i received marshmallow update for my Media pad x2, now when i connect my phone to my pic via USB i am unable to see my SD card or internal memory to transfer files. any suggestions ?

  • hi, dose not work 2 sim on one time, if you speak with sim 1 so sim 2 unaccable

  • Are the two sim working together; i mean if i have call on sim 1, i get new call on sim 2 will the calker hear ringing or closed or busy or what? I know that mate 8 both sim work together. What is the situation for media pad x2?

  • Real shame, this device is almost the perfect size for my needs but with only 32gb of storage it's sadly quite useless. I could live with the lack of WiFi ac and the lousy camera, but the lack of storage, especially seeing as this is supposedly a "media" device, is a deal breaker. Yes it can be extended with an SD card, but that eliminates the 2nd SIM, meaning I would have to carry a second phone. I really hope Huawei make a MediaPad X3 with updated specs, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

  • Hello, Please can you provide the below details related to Huawei MediaPad X2: 1- What is the android version available with this phone. 2- Does it support multi-window? 3- Does the phone contains the latest available firmware 4- Does it support English and Arabic languages. 5- Does it have google play? 6- Why if I update google play will not work? 7- Is there any newer version? Thank you in advance for your support, Best Regards, Maroun

  • region?

  • I got it as a small tablet for taking photos for my job needs as my iphone 5 doesnt have enough storage. The tablet is pretty neat and fluid, but camera really disappointed me, although MP count and aperture are above average there is a problem with focus and my Iphone 5 is definitely better. I am disappointed, because this was not my first choice I originally wanted 8" tablet with a card slot and a great camera. I did not need the cell phone functions and I only opted for this one as I couldn't find something with a good camera.

  • Thx my friend Can i ask you if the two sim card working together I mean if i hava a call on sim 1 I can receive calls on som2 in same time or i appear for the caller of sim 2 as switched of?

  • Yes it does have led notification.

  • Yes.. I already got a while ago

  • Are the two sim working together; i mean if i have call on sim 1, i get new call on som 2 will the calker hear ringing on that second sim or closed or busy or what? I know that mate 8 both sim work together. What is the situation for media pad x2?

  • Check in the power saving settings for "Reduce Power Consumption" - "Adjust display for lowest power consumption without degradation" and turn that feature off :)

  • I have a problem the light in my tab spontaneously become low especially in some games such as asphalt 8 and it raises again although i deactivate the automatic mode and i found this problem in the same tab with my friend any one can help me

  • How come my Bluetooth doesn't connect with any mobiles?

  • Is there an official Marshmallow update available for 702L?

  • Please one thing i want to know: can i go through the internet using my sim card? Here it is not mentioned that this mobile support 3g. I like the phone but i don't know if i can navigate on the internet with my sim? Any body can answer me? Thx

  • Update to Android 6? when?

  • Had this phone for a few months now.. very very satisfied! Exactly what im looking for and super on almost every level with almost no problems. Probably the best phone I had tell this day (with the oneplus one)

  • I have been using it as my everyday phone for about seven months. Everything works, but the EMUI doesn't yet allow a sign-in in Ireland/Europe. This means that I can't synch Google contacts. Otherwise, it's the best smartphone I've ever had, including Samsung Notes and Galaxy. Incredible battery life. Decent screen resolution. Screen is quite angle-dependent. I use it with two SIM cards seamlessly. I'll be getting rid of one SIM card, soon. I'll use the empty slot for Micro SD.

  • Yes it is, huawey will liberate the upgrade for marshallow in the futer months, just must be pacient and search in google more information.

  • it is kinda hard to use it as a daily driver, though if you are capable of carrying it into the inside pocket of a jacket or in a shoulder bag, it would be very handy for u. be aware it mostly needs two hands to deal with, so u cant drive and use it fully at the same time. so if you are not driving much and usually u carry a shoulder bag, it would be a perfect fit for you.. the battery is insane .. 2 days at least .. that's the most important feature of it. Hope to be useful

  • ATT is very fast HSPA, works well with X2

  • Hi This phone is great however My own jst got soft bricked and so far its cannot be fixed. Anyone that knows how to fix this device is the GEM-703L with lock bootloder

  • Love d phone but I only get 3g network and its a 4glte phone I got d gold one please I need help I got metro PCs .how can I do it to get 4g internet or on what company can I change it too to get 4g or 4glte ?

  • just sync your new device with your google account.

  • This huawei x2 vs lenovo phab plus which better please guide

  • It will not work on Sprint, you may get data but it doesn't have the bands for voice.

  • Is there an easy way to transfer apps from my Sony z ultra to my new Huawei mediapad x2?

  • It has radio

  • Hey, I haven't had any issues changing the ringtones but I hope you realize that the phone has two Sim slots, you'll have to select a ringtone for each. Then just make sure you click on the tick that appears on the top right hand of your screen

  • Does anyone know when the Huawei Mediapad X2 will officially be updated to Android Marshmallow? Thanks, well in advance!

  • I know it's kinda late but I'd suggest the Huawei mediapad X2, I've been using it since last year December, it's an amazing work of art, you'll love it!

  • Is it possible to use it as a daily driver ? Anyone using it as your primary phone?

  • No problems at all the X2 working perfect here in Egypt . ill did buy it for my wife and she did not complain anymore . wifi is good to , little advise go for the 3Gb/32Gb

  • It supports 3G, especially the model 701L, but its only problem - the device generally - that you can't use a second SIM with a Micro SD at the same time!

  • I have a problem... I can't change the ringtones, each time i do it wouldn't response to change If any had this problem please tell me how to solve it Thanks in advance

  • Just so u don't make the same mistake I did, I'll tell u right now that the only way your gonna receive LTE is if u are on sprints network. Otherwise, your gonna have to settle with 3G. Although this phone (media pad x2 gold) is LTE cat.6 and I'm running it off of metropcs WiFi and it is still very fast. All & all, $540 from amazon well worth it.

  • I would like to know if the newer LTE capable versions work on all bands used by US Cellular

  • i want to know if it's good in egypt , we don't have 4G here , only we have H,H+,3G , and i want to know is it better or samsung J7 or HTC desire 728 ? thanks in advance , please answer quickly

  • The mate7 kinda old Now, if you like big screen P8 Max is for you and if you like small screen so go for mateS, and those phones only get 4G no LTE and the signal it's not that good if you go inside the mall for sure you Will only get H+ or H,3G which means you can't access to the internet coz the speed it's freez.

  • I have one of this, it is excellent when I compare it with samsung note 4 which is my other mobile. They are good and the noticeable differences between them are: Note 4 is much better in camera quality. Media pad x2 can be used twice the period that note 4 can be used with out charging.

  • Can u tel me which 1phone is good huawei p8max mate7 or mate s??

  • i have owned The mediapad X2 and the P8 Max,and I'll tell you my experience with this 2 phones. You won't get 4G all the time the most you get is H or 3G and lucky you will get H+ which means you can't get access To the internet coz the speed it's take forever, the phone looks nice but useless for me. i have sold both of them. Good luck

  • Thanks everyone for your help. T-Mobile uses 1700/2100 (1,2,3,4&12). I need 4G LTE. I think that Huawei is starting to release phones with that frequency (ex) G8x, mate 8 and the Honor 5x. I will wait for the rumored X3 or the P9 Maxx.

  • What version of the phone do you have?

  • T-Mobile USA uses 4G LTE 700/1700/2100Mhz, check your phone and make sure it can use these frequency bands check the world countries for their 3G, 4G LTE frequency bands in this site and buy the phone with these bands:

  • I use it with T-Mobile in the US. No LTE, you get up to HSPA+, I find it to be fast enough for my usage.

  • Can someone answer this question?

  • Is anyone using the Huawei mediapad x2 on the T-Moibile system in the United States. Does it work with 4g lte or 4G?

  • 3G Network.. Does it really not support 3G network Because here in [Egypt] there is no 4G

  • # u can exchange the battery, they can be obtained online u need to open the phone) # it has an FM radio (it is on the BCM chip) # it has OIS optical image stabilisation

  • Is this a disposable phablet? The battery is not going to last forever and a search on ebay doesn't come up with any replacement batteries.

  • Hi Is have otg or USB host this phablet? Please answer me...

  • So what modle do you recommend for t-mobile? I have been looking and searching and watching video's on this phone for weeks now debating whether to get this phone or not. I love big phones. I currently have the Irulu V3. But I want bigger. So I was looking at the honor x2. So bottom line is this phone worth getting and what service is best for it in the good ol u.s.a.

  • Yes it is still true. It's now been more than 2 months and still working fine. My micro sim is ChungHua in Taiwan at LTE speed. My nano sim is roaming T-mobile into Taiwan Cellular at 3G speed. I don't need to carry two phones and worry about missing something from USA via text (and free via wifi!). I got a 64G micro sd card in as well. I've yet to remove the cards and put back in, but I'd rather wait till I need to do it. I'll know in about a week how it works in USA. I expect only HSPA+ for T-Mobile though.

  • Go to xda developers. They have the lollipop upgrade but its still not official and I would wait if I were you. For now upgrade to kikat if youre stuck on jellybean.

  • I love this phone. Only problem is I can now never have a phone with the screen smaller than 7".

  • There are 3 sub modle for the defferent world market 701L 702L 703L. They have got defferent 4G frequency. The user should check compatibity 4G and 3G frequency of the model they want to buy. In addtiton the china model can not download apps from google play.

  • How did you get internet connection mine will only call and text on metro PCs

  • I have bought a Huawei Honor X3 703L - and ordered the ENGLISH version Now many pages are in CHINESE, e.g. Manuals, APPs etc. I have set the language and Keyboard etc. to English, but no result I have successfully downloaded the Apps from Google store (I am currently using the Nexus 7 which I wanted to replace). So I am stuck?! Any suggestions would be very welcome.

  • No joke , i can send a screen shot from my app.

  • m2 has faster CPU but smaller battery. m2 doesn't support voice call.

  • This tablet or this phone the best whichbi have ever had,its work very good the battery for three days ,the sound is perfect ,camera is very good,what I can say that for all thoes specifications in this phone u dont need more and I use it as a phone coz I like big screen and u dont need a tablet coz really u havve a very thingin it what madebme afraidthat its Huawei and I didnt know Huawei but really its very good and before I had sony Xperia z ultra its really much more better camera ,battery, sound I recommend everyone to buy it whoblikes a big scrren and u wikk never be regret

  • Thanks Sentinel. I look for it at Huawei SM North but the only Mediapad they have are T1 and M1. They told me that no feedback from Huawei if X2 will arrive in the Philippines. They also told me that even X1 did not reach our market. I tried also to look for it in other stores but they don't have any Huawei tablet. We can purchase it only by online from gizok and honormi. Shipments will come from HK.

  • i have this mobile from 2 weeks ago and it's really awesome i do recommend this mobile for all. but i have a small problem in my mobile as i cant find any option at the themes application on the mobile to download other themes only the original themes with no other themes. mu version is 701 - 3 G RAM

  • Where can buy x2 in Malaysia as the price u sais

  • Come iran and buy it.

  • I'm stoked. Love this phone but one slot can only take a nano sim card OR a SD micro memory card, but not both. Checked with others who said if you can thin the cards or peel off the nano sim you can wedge both together and the phone will recognise both. Well, I did it! Finely sanded both cards very very carefully (do not sand contacts or expose metal). Finely sanded a little bump on the slot entrance. Wedged the 2 cards together and power off/on. Works!. I know have 2 sim cards active and sd card working. Love this phone.

  • when this available in the philippines?

  • Mediapad X2 (GEM-701L) 3Gb/32Gb (4G international) can i use lte here in the philippine?

  • Mediapad X2 (GEM-701L) 3Gb/32Gb (4G international) can i use lte here in the philippine?

  • Brilliant smartphone, can't believe how powerful and achived is this x2, even managed to use two sims plus the sd card (sim 2 unglued from card then glued to SD card and all is working perfectly. Waitin for the Marshmallow version of Android, and then it will be paradise!!!

  • 702L vs 703L As far as I can tell, the only difference is the mobile tower bands. From Model: GEM-702L GSM: band 2/3/5/8 UMTS: band 1/2/5/8 TD-SCDMA: band 34/39 LTE-TDD: band 38/39/40/41 LTE-FDD: band 1/3/7/8/28 Wi-Fi: 2.4 GHz/5GHz Model: GEM-703L GSM: band 2/3/5/8 UMTS: band 1/2/5/8 TD-SCDMA: band 34/39 LTE-TDD: band 38/39/40/41 LTE-FDD: band 1/3/7 Wi-Fi: 2.4 GHz/5GHz

  • Yes, I'm using it with T-Mobile and I'm getting HSPA+ or 4G but not 4G LTE. It's kinda decent internet speed which around 5 to 10 Mbps. I moved from Samsung galaxy note 4 and this phone is wayyy better.

  • Www.xdadeveloppers.com thats the site for all rom versions whatever phone you have.

  • You have a chineese model, honor x2 or glory x2. Www.pdadevellopers.com there you find how to flash your device into a 701l model . then your 4g will work.

  • Ebay have loads

  • Mai does it work with 4G lite?

  • I am planning to buy this phone. Are you saying you got HSPA+ to work? I will use T-Mobile as well.

  • I bought Huawei honor X2 and I'm running it on T-Mobile network but I got a small problem which I can't get 4g or 3g on internet even though it showing H+ on the top. But when I make a call it will run H+!!. When I change the mobile network to 2g it works fine. Any suggestions so I can fix it please. My phone is 703L. Thanks

  • Androidmall.Co.uk, or gizok.com to get original one

  • Your name sounds Egyptian , where did you get the x2?

  • Do U know of any other supplier - anywhere in the world - who could deliver it immediately? This grandfather (70+) is tired of waiting. Thanks!

  • It doesn't matter which one you get. You will only get hspa+ on TMobile and 3g on AT&T. No LTE support in the US. Get the Gem-703L. It's cheaper and will get more and faster updates.

  • No it's not! I have the gold color unit.

  • I ordered one at the GearBest and paid for it on the 2nd of September. They haven't sent IT yet! Does anyone know whether it is stock anywhere else? I an in Sweden. Thanks!

  • gearbest.com still do not have stock available for 702

  • Can anyone help me. Where can i buy this in the philippines? Thanks.

  • Try software such as Gplayer for any video, and I personally like Viral lite, that you can play streaming video from Youtube. Both allows pop-up windows, just like multi-tasking. It's a must have for your X2. Enjoy.

  • the gold frame is very bad . its weak

  • I have this tablet since 1 week and it fell down 3 times. Last time from 7 feet height. Nothing happened. My 3 samsung note 10 and 1 samsung tab s 10.5 broken. So its a really sold tablet. I want to ask 2 questions. How can I change default vedio player in it and how can I apply multiscreen in it

  • Huawei put a screen protect , I have buy it with screen protect

  • Hi folks. I have noticed that this device does not have a gorilla Glass. Has anyone been using this device without the screen protector? Does the screen scratch easily without the screen protector? Thank you.

  • Try with Gearbest

  • thanks

  • 702 support networks more than 701,,,

  • why 702 why not 701

  • its so good , but , you can tell him to buy a cover or back cover

  • i told some one send to me from sudia to egypt do you think it well be work the network

  • 702

  • I'm in the States and would like to know whether the 701, 702 or 703 will be better to use in USA as some reviews mentioned that the Media X2 doesn't support LTE fully in USA.

  • I have it from

  • I have MediaPad X2 , it have radio

  • Radio - yes

  • its the same

  • Is this different from huawei honor X2?

  • Saudi Arabia is a bit too far for me to go for a phone

  • I'm in Egypt and I can't find it I will buy It from Saudi Arabia the middle east version is 701

  • London, UK

  • where are you from ?

  • You're right, the 701 has not yet received the update but I'd still rather have it if at all possible. Does anyone k ow where I can order one from? I've had one pre-ordered on Amazon.de since May but there seems to be no sign of it being stocked yet.

  • is that the same android version .. i think 703 and 702 have android 5.1 but 701 have android 5.0

  • The 701 is better for the UK as it has FDD band 20 for 4G. The 702 and 703 have FDD band 28 which makes them slightly less compatible for sme networks like O2's

  • is 701 the best than 702 . 703

  • Hi Tcool, can you tell me where you purchased your 701 please?

  • I am from Poland. I bought this phone a month ago. I think that is great.It is much better than the Galaxy Note 3 which I had before. My model is 702 LTE and dual sim without problems large 5000mAh battery two days of continuous operation.It is the best [email protected]

  • Please tell me where you will buy the phone because ineed it nessery

  • I don't have x2 yet , I will buy it next week , I hope to know any mistakes or defects in that phone ?

  • Radio - yes

  • i said micro usb to HDMI, not OTG! Please check under wired connections here:

  • see that

  • where are you from ?

  • I have 701 and it doesn't supports HDMI via micro USB and the signal coverage for SIM 2 is weak!

  • scratch resistant is useless ...just get a clear screen protector ...

  • Why you don't like x2 ?? also please tell us , which room you have 701 , 702 , 703 ??

  • mediapad x1 camera colouration is bad... hope x2 is better..

  • MediaPad X1 is better than this! I regret upgrading to this, I should have stayed to X1 for better.

  • Doesn't have OTG, I don't like it!

  • It comes with screen protector already installed on the screen out of the box.

  • nice one

  • Is there any scratch resistant for this phone?

  • It is not.

  • I need to know the different between Firmware 702L and 703L ?

  • its too expensive

  • HellO! I'm from Austria and I'd like to buy this phone. Who can tell me, if the media pad x2 works there? It's not available here and therefor I think about of buying from China. Thanks for your opinions.

  • 702L or 703L?

  • I've used this phone/tablet for more than 3 months and I can tell you it is definitely worth it to buy. The best part about this device is that you can carry it around with you everywhere you go in your pants pocket. So basically you can carry a tablet with you everywhere you go and not have to bring your smartphone with you as well.

  • Having used this phone for a month, I can say it is as good as its spec. Best point is a longer battery life comparing to other tablets if similar spec.

  • i want to bye this device but i want to know this devece is getting hit or not at the use time.

  • who has use this phone?i want to know is this phone as good as the specs?is it wealth to buy?

  • Does the x2 have nfc or otg?

  • If you want to use the phone here you can. Most of the places you buy it from will install the google stuff you will need to use the phone. Turn it on, put in your SIM card and you're done

  • Hi MTyler! I am in Virginia, USA. Can you explain the lock code and sim card situations to me again? I am not a developer by any stretch of the imagination and just want to use this phone "as is" out of the box. So I buy the phone, open the box... say I am going to start an AT&T account - what do I do next with the phone to get it to work? Thanks for your time!

  • Hi Saywhat! Thanks so much for the answer. I hear that on T Mobile or AT&T I will not get 4G or 4G LTE? I also heard from a person in Northern Virginia (the same state I am in) that he gets 4G but not 4G LTE on Cricket (using AT&T towers). But he might have been blowing smoke because he was selling his P8MAX to buy an X2 instead. Where would you buy your X2 in the USA? I hear that there is an Honor X2 (Chinese) and another X2 that's an international version (which is better). What's your opinion about all of this?

  • You have to have T-Mobile or AT&T. Get the X2. It's cheaper and has a larger battery.

  • Malaysia is selling at RM1360 AP set. I am interested as well, can we discuss this?

  • Hi! I live in Virginia, USA. I want to buy either this phone or the P8MAX. I don't know what cell company I should use that these phones will work on! Please help!

  • how much this mediapad will cost at malaysia?

  • Such a long wait! Some thing is Fishy!! Is it Huawei??

  • This phone is the best of the best for the money. I have tried every one of them. This phone works everywhere where I live. I had a huawei ascend mate 2 in Virginia USA and I dropped a few calls. But this phone, as soon as I dial it connects, at a store where in my county where no one has a signal this phone works. It has a powerful radio. My old ATT Note 3 did not do this. Had the Asus padfone x mini, No signal. BLU 6.0 HD LTE, weak signal. ascend mate 2 was the only one that compared. You must email them for the lock code, the online site to get the unlock code only works if you registered with huawei ID on your phone (the IMEI has to registered) and you have to be in a country that allows that. They won't let you register from the USA using a SIM card from a USA carrier. So you have to email them and wait . Head over XDA, mediapad x2 has its own forum now.

  • When I asked officiall office thay told wait :-(

  • Real bad for Egypt, europe its there this x2 is a nice peace i might get it from china

  • i want to buy this is phone, can anybody me suggest how is the device and any defects

  • No NFC??

  • Can one receive and make call with it? Can one send sms with mediapadx2

  • Sim 2 Can use 3g/4g???

  • For all brands buy the golden international version X2.

  • Mine is not heating up at all.

  • This is an excellent device at a very cheap price.

  • There is nothing to worry about if your phone's heating up. It's just because the back cover is made in a very, very thin aluminium.

  • This is very good phone/tablet,been using it for the last 3 weeks now,ordered it from china, I am coming from Note II,I congratulate Huawei for this masterpiece,camera is also very good,very fast,I like the Multi-Screen (Mirroring) option connects to my Sony Bravia TV very fast something both my Galaxy S5 and Note II never did,and also neither did the Sony Xperia ..LOL.

  • When will this phablet come out? I'm getting a headache waiting on it.

  • Please I need to know when will it appear in EGYPT , I like this phone and I need to buy it

  • Why does my X2 heat up very quickly while i am using 3g or 4g to play game online? Within 10 minutes it becomes very hot! Is it normal or something wrong with my Huawei X2? Please help. Thanks!

  • Everything works well except gaming. My X2 heats up very quickly within about 10 minutes while i am using 4 g or 3 g to play games online. I bouhgt it maily for online games but now it disappoits me! :( Is it normal or something wrong with my X2? Please help!

  • is that this thingy doesn't come with wifi ac?

  • should i get mediapad x1 or x2? x1 already launched officially in my country, while x2 do not reach my market, but i can still get the import version without warranty, so much dillema since x1 dont receive lollipop update while another option which is m1 lack of RAM, m2 has bad camera, i need 6"-7" phablet for gaming and movie, i hate samsung tab, the design look so much grandpa and menu button do not change since froyo, camera in lame position near the processor and sensor will degrade due heat, oh god x2 really caught my heart

  • Hello how's the camera when compared to x1? Does this heat up more easily than x1? Is it worth the upgrade at all? Thank you.

  • Please describe how no improvement from last generation

  • no improvement at all from last generation

  • Both sim slots support 4g/3g/2g. GEM-703L support all bands. Nano sim slot can use as sd card slot. if you want to use sd card, you can't use nano sim. If you use nano sim, you can't use sd card slot.

  • The mediapad X2 will be released on October 2015.

  • thanks for your quick response

  • @pallab7 1. Ringtone is quite loud and is excellent to hear. 2. It has two slots for sim cards. Top right one is for Nano sim or Micro sd card and bottom right one is for Micro sim card. Hope this helps! :)

  • @Pindiyath100 could you please tell me 2 things 1.how loud its ringtone and quality? 2.does its sim2 use micro sd card slot? please kindly inform

  • Hi Friends! I live in Hong Kong and just bought this Model GE-703L with 16GB built in, 3.0GB Ram running on Android 5.0, Silver color with LTE Cat. 6 connectivity. My initial thoughts are as below but not in pros and cons order. I hope you'll get some idea. 1. Both 4G and Wi-Fi are super-fast! 2. 3.0GB memory makes the phone quite fast to use. No hanging while using so far. 3. Music player with DTS output is awesome! However, it doesn't have have built in graphic equalizers or as such or may be I've not located them yet. 4. Google Play is not installed so I had to download it seperately and install it to gt games and other necessary apps. 5. Fantastic picture quality with Rear and Front Cameras! 6. 1080p screen with 323 ppi pixel density offers decent playback of HD movies and pictures are pure joy to view!! 7. I'm not a diehard fan of hard-core games but I did install 'King of the Course Golf' game and playback was pretty smooth with NO issues. 8. As I've mentioned above nowhere I could find Google Play and other popular apps such as Youtube etc. 9. I've found the layout of the bundled keyboard little difficult to use, may be because I've been into Sony & Samsung for long. This can be easily solved by getting keyboard appls from Google Play. 10.There are Plenty of 'USELESS' Chinese language apps. onboard. I've yet to try uninstall or disable them. Hope my thoughts are helpful. :)

  • Not yet.. Only in chains until this moment.

  • I'm In EGYPT I need to know release date in Egypt , did any one here in Egypt buy this mobile ?

  • Been to SM North, Megamall, SM San Lazaro and Novo7 in Gateway still nada. The only sure info is the price will be much lower at Novo7 and other resellers. I already left my # at Novo7 and Wellcom SM San Lazaro. Still waiting for their call if its already available.

  • it supports mhl hdmi tv out ?

  • I tried visiting SM North annex here in the Philippines and went exactly to Huawei brand shop. They Still don't have this and has no price listing yet

  • yes, it is the same phablet

  • Try to visit Megamall or SM North. I'l buy this one by December so if you got this Device... kindly share your experience to my personal email [email protected]

  • How come on the Gizok site the 16GB has also 3GB of RAM? Is this true or they are wrong?

  • Im looking forward to having this great phablet! I wonder when will this be available in the Philippines? Big screen is great for having big thumbs! :))

  • l must congratulate The Huawei company for inventing Huawei Mediapad X2 phablet. l see it as My best phone! It's better than P8 max in the following features: 1).It's a phone of 7 inch screen size. 2). The ratio of Length to width is more attractive. What l would like to recommend is in case Huawei will produce Media pad X3, then let it make it Slimmer, something like 6mm thick or less because Samsung has already produced an 8 inch tablet which is 5.4mm thick. Let also the phone have a Corning gorilla glass 3 or 4 if the screen is having is non-protective.l don't know the type of screen it has. Looking forward to this Great phablet! l fully agree with Huawei company that this is indeed a Phone and not a tablet! .

  • Add your Google account and activate sync from account setting.

  • It is compatible with T-Mobile's voice network and T-Mobile's 3g Internet only! However, T-Mobile's 3g Network is 42mbps! So you can expect great performance! Moreover, this phone has a 64bit super fast octa-core processor so you can expect greater 3g performance on this phone than on most high end smartphones!

  • Yes h+ no lte

  • Im Confused...is the Mediapad X2 the same as the Honour X2? Ive read its the same but for the Chinese Market...is that the case?

  • Will this phone be 100% compatible on TMobile network??

  • Yes but it is a pre-order. We do not know when the release date is

  • For the people in European Union , can buy the mediapad x2 from from amazon.de for 399 euros, (3GB ram & 32 GB Rom) vat incluted. Need to pay some euros only for the shipping cost.

  • Huawei doesnot makes touchplus film for x2 yet. Infact its only avaialble for honor 6 till now.

  • From where can I buy Huawei Mediapad X 2 but not the Chinese version HONOR X 2 Can you suggest a reliable source

  • Dude, the Honor version is the one made for the market in China. The Mediapad X2 is the international version. The Mediapad x2 will be 4G, but has not yet been released internationally. It has been estimated to be released in June but it might even be July as Huawei Singapore commented of their Facebook page.

  • if you can help me, every time i typed mediapadx2 on amazon i found results for honor x2, also it's not clear if it's a 3g only or 4g that's the link

  • I wish to upgrade my Huawei mediapad X 1 from Jellybean 4.2 to Lollipop. Will be obliged if someone can provide me the link. My email id is [email protected]

  • I wish to upgrade Huawei Mediapad X 1 from Jelly bean 4.2.2 to Lollipop. Can anyone please provide me the link for upgradation.

  • From where do I get a Touchplus film required to activate one of the features as mentioned in the settings of Mediapad X 2

  • From where do I get a Touchplus film required to activate one of the features as mentioned in the settings of Mediapad X 2

  • When mediapad released? Getting bored to wait...

  • I'm grateful to you for having emailed me the application to sync my Google contacts with Huawei Mediapad X 2 I wish I could reciprocate in any way

  • Sir my email id is [email protected] Kindly sendcme the google contacts sync adapter Thank you Mohammedali Vakil

  • search the web for Google ContactsS ync Adapter

  • search the web for Google Contacts Sync Adapter or send me you e-mail to send you the apk

  • Can any one please tell me how to syn my Google contacts with the Mediapad X 2

  • It's not that expensive really, you can buy a new 16GB Mediapad x2 from gizok.com for less than $400 USD. The 16GB model also has 3GB RAM too. There is almost no point in buying the 32GB model since on the x2 you have the option to change the default storage onto your micro sd card.

  • To be fair,X2 is the better modifid version of X1 tablet in high midrange class of Huawei,s good works.To write unbiasedly Huawei is sometimes is ascending just like this X2!!!But the most revolutionary leaps is updates and upgrades constantly to reach to the highest ends like listening Sony!!!Nevertheless I like X2 tablet and someday when its high price comes down,I am eager to have it!!!Though my wishlist is already saturated!!!Thanks gsmArena.com to give opportunity to write,Huawei to do best and GSM follower!Good luck all of you!!!

  • Omg I just received a Mediapad x2 this Wednesday May 27, the screen is humongous for a phone, you can fit it in your front jeans pocket no problem. This is the best phone ever, no phone can compare. I've used Apple and Samsung before and this is way better. This is the ultimate hybrid device, the best phablet out there. I highly recommend people to get this phablet, the battery life is absolutely insane I estimate I can get 2-3 days of normal usage easily. If anyone is interested in buying this phablet now go to www.gizok.com, this is the official Huawei mobile shop. I ordered from there and received my phone in 2 days time. Again I highly recommend people to buy this phablet if they are looking for an all in one phone/tablet.

  • Where do you get the p8 max in Germany ?

  • mediapad x2 s the same honor x2 p8max is totaly different than the x2 my choise was the mediapad x2 ( honor x2) because the price of p8max is much high while the spec. near to the x2

  • Mediapad X2 and P8max are already in France, Germany and Italy. They're 2 different devices.

  • Are you sure it's the same? Mediapad's display is 7.0 inches, P8max is only 6.8 inches. Mediapad is about 350 US Dollars, P8max is 550 US Dollars!

  • My friend uses Huawei Media Pad X1. He said that it is a good one ( battery, camera and build quality), but he is not satisfied about voice quality :

  • Well, an octacore is basically 2 sets of 4 cores, both set with different frequencies, like you can see posted here

  • does it have a google play services framework support for those units bought in China?

  • bro don't forget to share your reviews here wid us when u will get that phablet :D

  • I have Huawei X 1. It is amazing . Huawei in Egypt isgetting up rapidly . Price is reasonable . Sure waiting the X2 & hope 2b same size as X 1.

  • I have just pre-odered a 16Gb X2. Waiting for him :D

  • it as calling feature or not but its performance is good it 7inch touch bar is differ in the ndtv as told .

  • Sound great

  • release it today 25/03/2015

  • This is the one I will purchase for sure in couple of weeks. Sounds awsome.

  • 299 US dollars in Thailand.

  • The previous model, X1, is better in terms of looks, IMHO.

  • Looking awsome

  • X1 vs X2 Single SIM vs Dual SIM Emotion UI 2.0 vs Emotion UI 3.0 Jelly Bean vs Lollipop Hisilicon Kirin 910 vs Hisilicon Kirin 930 Mali-450MP4 vs Mali-T628 MP4 Quad 1.2GHz vs Quad 1.5GHz+Quad 2.0GHz microSD, up to 32GB vs 128GB

  • In INDIA and USA 3G - 4G networks bands are also not going work... that's gave me a nasty shock... So why why why... I should buy this phone ð���... Even after knowing it is made by Chinese lolz :D :P

  • Its cool but very costly not having nfc some people are saying not even radio... and its cost's 350$ for 2GB ram & 16GB internal and 400$ for 3GB Ram & 32GB internal they are slaving our necks guys..... I think they are using medipad x1 old hardware cat copy just they done some customized things like worked on body Design, Processor, Ram, Internal Memory and also raised the price... Which is too much... :( :/ :P

  • i'm waiting for the reviews of this tablet...

  • Definitely gonna buy one when it's here in the Philippines. Mabuhay ang Pinoy!!!

  • when this phone going to come out i need one

  • �399 for the 3GB RAM �349 for the 2GB RAM

  • is that official price? From where you got it? vana ta...

  • otg?

  • where did you get that price ?

  • i'm wondering if this device will work on the u.s.a. att network. the pricing seems good. just hope the build quality is satisfactory and it should outsell the other high priced competitors too.

  • it will be perfect if it's 8 inchs i think.

  • At price of USD 320, it is steal, look at price of iPhone 6+ and note 4, both are USD 650+ (Unlocked), I will term those prices as rip-off, anytime I will buy mediapad X2 as & when it is launched in market.

  • What a monster....

  • Just buy any color and use sandpaper to sand it down then spray paint to the colour of your choice if you want matte. LoL.

  • No not at all because they dont have the same size. 183mmx104mm vs 157mmx81mm .. 239g vs 185g 7" 16:10 vs 6" 16:9 + the X2 is really big but for me its perfect. Go today to your favorite store & compare the size of the X1 with the Mate7.

  • Well u need to change 4g bands in usa then..That's your problem when u want to have everything different.....

  • No they shouldn't add bcos it wud be mate7 dethroner..

  • Wrong bands for LTE in the USA. It needs: LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 (Bands 2, 4, 5, 17)

  • amazing 7" device, i was waiting for such one !!!

  • Good job Huawei 1-The card slot can accept the 128GB & can be a 2nd sim. 2-Lollipop. 3-Hisilicon Kirin 930. 4-32GB with 3GB RAM You should add 1-Fingerprint sensor. 2-Front speakers. 3-Better cameras (The quality not the pixels + OIS)

  • Was waiting for little less bezel, overall dimensions, but all we get is practically the same design (only aluminum uni-body if previous leeks where true) and new internals. Even no black or white color. Not worth upgrade

  • I hope the LTE will work on USA mobile network like TMobile and At&t.

  • This is midrange SoC, not high end! Is it cpu spec true? Only cortex a53. P.S GPU is great, Mate 7 is better for gaming then galaxy s5

  • yes it does have AC

  • just released..

  • no wifi AC, bad

  • The gpu is mali t628mp4......wtfff....so much wasted on cpu with outdated gpu..

  • What could be its pricing a really important thing!!

  • need to see this one coming out in KSA. Is it first week of March?

  • Can anyone tell if it has FM radio or not? GSMArena says that mediapad x1 has a radio but it actually doesn't?!

  • What !? no White or Black color !!!?? Huawei! make a matte black or White one !

  • Nice one!

  • Nice specification and looks. Huawei India launch mediapad x2 soon

  • This is the good one

  • This Model is gonna be huge success . Major is the Pricing problem for all China Manufacturer in recently market. Unreasonable price make me dont hesitate for choosing Samsung A7. This Device with huge battery , one hand size LCD even in 7" (103mm , if 95mm is more comfortable) , nice camera , fast GPU & CPU .

  • this is a nice one coming from it's predecessor...

  • The black screen border ruin that perfect body. Bring back the X1 design.
