A couple of months ago we wrote about the tablet with metal case, good big 10.1-inch screen and excellent sound — Huawei MediaPad M2 10.0. Prices start from 30 thousand rubles. But if your budget is on the gadgets tells you to “stick”, then you can look at besides Huawei, but the models are a little easier — MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro. Its main differences to the plastic casing and less powerful hardware.

Design and management

In the white case Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro looks quite good. It’s plastic, without any claims to “premium”.

A feeling that, though it is a large 10-inch tablet, but honed it on portrait mode: first, the front camera is located as smartphones on the short edge. Next to her, by the way, is the badge. Secondly, speakers — and here are two of them — are also on the short edges, symmetrical. So, if you watch videos without headphones, then be sure to close the speakers hands. At the same time the sound will not “stretch” in the table or other surface, as is often the case when the manufacturer has speakers on the rear panel.

The left side was empty, but on the right you can find the off button, swing volume control and a long stub. Behind it hides a slot for microSD and Nano-SIM. Micro-USB connector and mini-Jack headphone posted on different sides. The last is on top, closer to front camera and micro-USB placed at the bottom.

The verge Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro rounded, but quite a bit. Not to say that the tablet is awkward in the hand or slip. However, a significant thickness of 8.5 mm. No, it’s not much — by the standards of Windows-tablets on Intel Core m. But “tablets on Android are much thinner.

Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro different from MediaPad M2 10.0 not only plastic housing and other system-on-chip. Many items have changed their location though, it would seem that there is the tablet swap. But if M2 main camera is in the middle of the long side of the “pill”, then T2 10.0 Pro primary camera module and flash again as the smartphones in the top corner.

Screen and sound

For 10 inch tablet screen has a decent resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. The image is “readable” on the street thanks to good brightness: the manufacturer promises up to 300 CD/m2, colorimeter showed even 323 CD/m2. The contrast is also good — 680:1. No complaints on the accuracy: the deviation is minimal. Among the display settings, you can find the white balance adjustment, but I would like that the manufacturer is not lazy he will configure the matrix, and not to give it at the mercy of a user who is still there is no possibility to adjust something with the necessary precision.

The sound quality for a cheap tablet is very good. Partly as I mentioned because the speakers are positioned so that the tablet can lie quietly on the back panel.

Iron and autonomy

MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro based on a system-on-chip Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 MSM8939. She made her debut a little over two years ago and is notable mostly because it is one of the first 64-bit SoC production Qualcomm. The system is based on 8 cores Cortex-A53, which were not initially oriented on maximum performance, but over time have become even less persuasive in demanding applications. So for modern games it will be a bad choice, but for social networking and movies its ability to appeal to just. More details about Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 MSM8939 you can read in our review of the Samsung Galaxy A7.

The amount of RAM is 2 GB. If not so long ago the figure was terrifying, or at least surprise, now, even if you don’t play games, this volume is enough not always. The drive from MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro only 16GB is the only option. Instead there is a slot for microSD cards, but the manufacturer is ashamed to indicate on the website the maximum amount. In General, the “filling” Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro quite adequate to its price.

As can be seen from tests, the MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro everywhere a little behind its pricier brother. But this difference is not so noticeable as the difference in price.

The thickness of the tablet kompensiruet capacious battery — 6660 mAh. Of course, if “torture” device, games, the whole day it will not last despite the efficiency of the Snapdragon 615. If strongly not to “run amok” and watch the movies right to communicate in social networks, then charge it need be no more often than every three days.

Software and camera

Out of the box the tablet is ready to delight us already battered 5.1.1 Android OS (Lollipop), wrapped in a proprietary shell EMUI 3.1. There is no app menu, all of them are on the desktop. Of course, there are different themes, different icons. The shell works smoothly, happy optimization.

Interface Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro

Camera Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro, unfortunately, quite mediocre even by the standards of the tablet “photography”. The front still has 8 megapixels but the image noise and looks very understated. Thus the various functions and settings of the camera very much. But, with such a quality output, it would be enough just one button “remove”.

Lenovo TAB 2 A10-70L

Tablet Lenovo TAB 2 A10-70L is a very worthy competitor to the main character of the review.

This is not a new pill that noticeable at least in Wi-Fi version (less fast IEEE 802.11 b/g/n instead of modern 802.11 ac). And system-on-chip is also not the latest, Intel Atom Z3745, however, comparable in performance with the Snapdragon 615. The gadget boasts a very long battery life, because the capacity of its battery is as much as 9600 mAh. Hidden such a big battery inside a special cylindrical thickening. It’s stand, making interaction with your tablet much more convenient. I’ll just ask you for this is not the new tablet is 27 000 rubles.

Conclusion

Huawei MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro fits well into its niche. He is certainly not perfect for all fans of mobile games, but cope well with everyday tasks: watching movies, social networking, reading news and stuff like that. It will be useful for those who spends a lot of time in public transport.

The weak point of the tablet is the camera. The old “phocomelic” he can replace, but only insofar as: take a picture of any receipt or the notes from your student more responsible than you, MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro is quite capable. But photos of people, nature and things made with the help of this gadget, enjoy you can’t.

For a good time for movies and serials have everything you need, namely a large screen with a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels, quite high contrast and very good color. There are great speakers, but once you take “the pill” two hands in a horizontal position, as the speakers will be closed. But the sound does not become quieter or worse, if you put MediaPad T2 10.0 Pro on a table or other surface. The big disadvantages of this gadget is not observed, but it is necessary to take into account that 2 GB RAM will soon be to remind myself in a most unpleasant way.
