Huawei
has continued to reduce its unit in size while maintaining the size of the
screen. A fresh example of frameless plate - MediaPad X2, which was the
development of last year's model X1.
Appearance and ergonomics:
Actually,
looks Media Pad X2 is identical to its predecessor - all members of the body are
the same up to the millimeter. Even mesh earpiece and light sensors are the
same.
There
are only two differences from its predecessor. First - this color. If the X1
Russia was sold in white and silver version, the new tablet is only available
in gold version. The second difference - the color of the borders around the
screen. In X2, they are painted in the color off of the screen, while the X1
has a frame in the color of the case. Wherein the shell itself is made of metal
with a plastic plate, designed for radios.
Unlike
the other seven-inch tablet, Media Pad X2 can hold in the palm in the manner of
the phone, even if nature has not endowed you with big hands. You only need to
get used to that, as opposed to smartphones, the power button is located above
the volume buttons.
However,
with the virtually complete absence of a framework one problem: if you try to
control the tablet with one hand (even if just to turn the page in the reader),
then the base of the thumb is required to touch the screen and, most likely, or
click on any button or whisk for a -nibud menu.
Shield:
Screen
Huawei MediaPad X2 is almost the same as its predecessor. It's all the same
seven inches and bright IPS-matrix with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels.
Screen Color conveys precisely - not too bright, too dim, not with a yellow and
blue tint. Exactly the way they look in reality.
Because
of compact screen tablet MediaPad X2 can be called one of the best in all respects.
However,
on the street in good weather to read from a tablet is still somewhat
problematic - use it in the sun can only be to the maximum brightness. On the
other hand, a small plate to be read in such circumstances, and therefore it
should not be a big problem.
Iron:
Huawei
true to itself: in their devices the company is trying to establish their own
components, and therefore the heart of the tablet was the eight-processor 930
of the Kirin "daughter" companies - Hi Silicon. And it's an extremely
powerful solution: in synthetic test AnTuTu tablet gaining 50.5 thousand.
Points - a stunning result that will allow owners of the device within the next
two to three years, in principle, does not know the games and applications that
Media Pad X2 is too weak.
System:
The
tablet runs on Android 5.0, and, in fact, is a great smartphone: There are
calls for the application, and the interface itself is taken directly from
smartphones without whatever changes. However, it is not so noticeable. The
only thing that gives origin smartphones EMUI (this is the name interface) - is
the huge size of the keypad buttons, which occupies just half of this rather
big screen.
By
the way, "native», which the company uses in all of its devices, still
uncomfortable, so the very first thing you should do when fitting plate
"by itself" - is in the settings menu "Language &
input" switch it to "Keyboard Google».
Opening
times
On
this parameter Media Pad X2 is also closer to smartphones than to the plates:
discharge it to the end of the day without any problems, despite the battery of
5000 mAh. If you do not use it as a smartphone and the tablet for content
consumption, the charge will last for two or three days, not more.
