The Huawei Mediapad M3 comes with the Huawei Kirin 950 processor, giving it more than enough juice to power through any apps that you can think of. The high-resolution screen means that your content will look tack sharp, and impressive in any condition. It also has enough storage space on board for the multimedia files, but if more storage is needed – the microSD slot will come in handy.
Great sound stage
Audio will not be a problem with the Huawei Mediapad M3. It has Harman Kardon stereo speakers built-in, so it can reproduce good sound as and when needed. Not only that, the audio quality is great even at high volumes, as the sound processing done on the tablet is on par with professional devices out there. Our only comment is that Huawei should have made the speakers face forward.

It also has full 4G connectivity, so you can make your calls, transfer data and do anything you would do on your smartphone with the tablet – without looking like you are putting a book to your ear.
