Huawei MediaPad X1 vs Nexus July 2013 - Tablet Zone

already sensed by the leaks that the model brought the MWC Huawei would go straight into the high range, which has been confirmed after his presentation. Fortunately we also its price from the beginning and we can measure directly competitive market. Being a 7-inch tablet there is always a clear referenciad compared to that search. Here goes for a comparative between X1 and Nexus Huawei MediaPad 7 .

design, size and weight

new Chinese brand tablet is lighter and thinner all 7 inch tablets. It also uses materials such as aluminum for further housing. The side frames are really small and the screen gets a total role. Moreover, the whole set is substantially smaller, so we conclude that the assembly is excellent.

Nexus 7 is a tablet well made but more earthy in terms of size, thickness, material and weight, despite being the lightest.

Huawei MediaPad X1 vs Nexus July 2013

Screen

On the table have the same bet. Same size, same resolution, IPS panel and protection of Corning Gorilla Glass. The adjustment of each company will be decisive, having already obtained good results from Google in different tests. While Huawei gives a really interesting option using software, allowing you to adjust the brightness and color.

Finally, it has a low temperature mode to use the tablet with gloves without losing touch control.

Performance and software

not know well, how can we expect the processor MediaPad own production of X1. The truth is that the Nexus S4 Pro 7 should not be too far of a quad-core Cortex-A9 1.6 GHz and a decent GPU Mali 450 MP as. However, we believe that in this game the palm of Google will be in addition have the most updated software.

We must also remember that Huawei uses a strong personalization layer called Emotion UI organized in a different way to the application menus.

Storage

This section

always lose out a tablet of Mountain View. True, in the Huawei we have to settle with 16 GB of internal memory with no other option, but can be extended by another 32 GB microSD. In the Google we can choose between 16 GB and 32 GB, but forget about microSD.


Connectivity

Huawei is a team with LTE mobile network connectivity by default, while the Nexus 7 version will have to choose and pay a little more, but this option does not exceed the price of its rival.

Where the difference is that the X1 MediaPad can make and receive phone calls and receive SMS. To match this capability in its rival, would have to use VoIP services do not get the stability of a phone.

of Google has NFC connectivity and unique advantage.

Cameras and sound

Chinese company has set very high for what is usually found in tablets ribbon and it seems that the model considered rather a great phone. The front camera of 5 MPX can be as excessive, but it is easy to be content with the rear of 13 MPX and Sony Exmor R BSI sensor.

sound of Nexus 7 is not great but sufficient. We suspect that the front speakers opponents may make a difference.


Battery

We have a clearly larger in X1 MediaPad battery, which is even more striking being a finer team and lighter than its rival. Predictably will give more autonomy than the Nexus.

Regarding differential points, it’s interesting that Huawei can be used to charge other mobile devices.

by Qi wireless charging technology is a differential factor to find in Google.

Prices and conclusions

We are facing very different teams although in many ways its specifications have parity. Huawei has not offered a WiFi only model and gained additional leverage making phone features of the terminal.

This is not the only sexy, but also has a great design and top quality materials. It is lighter and lighter and has more battery life. Storage is expandable chambers and given a review of his rival, also intuit something that will sound.

In short, if one were to believe that LTE tablet worth paying 50 Euros difference will respect your opponent.

However, if our idea of ??shopping is a WiFi only tablet and spend as little as possible, the Nexus July 2013 for 229 euros is still the best option in the market.
