Huawei have just officially launched the Huawei MediaPad M6 alongside the earlier Huawei Nova 5 announcement. As we already knew, the device comes in two size options, both with minute differences between them. Now we’re going to take a closer look at these devices, their specs and their features.
First off the two size options available are a 10.8-inch model and an 8.4-inch model. Both versions of the Huawei MediaPad M6 come with 2K display resolution. Keeping these screens running are the batteries in here, which are pretty decent in size. The smaller 8.4-inch tablet will get a 6100mAh battery, while the 10.8-inch variant gets a massive 7500mAh battery instead.
Both variants of the MediaPad M6 are powered by the octa-core Huawei Kirin 980 CPU, dual NPUs, and a Mali-G76 GPU with GPU Turbo 3.0 support. As for RAM and storage, the devices only come in 4GB + 64GB and 4GB + 128GB configurations. As expected, the volume rocker, the power button, a USB Type-C port, MicroSD card tray and even a 3.5mm audio jack all sit on the right-hand side. As for cameras, we’ve a 13MP rear and 8MP front setup.
What’s most impressive about the Huawei MediaPad M6 devices are their audio solutions. Both devices come with four-channel speakers that ensure crisp and powerful sound. They’re tuned by Harman-Kardonn, and Huawei claims this will help produce loud and booming bass. We’re inclined to agree considering how the MediaPad devices have always had good audio.
