Huawei has released the newest model Huawei Mediapad with adroid 3.2 OS.
Anyone find the cases or other accessories for this.
I just checked it from ebay with item number:320782967292
It seems magic.
I will see if there is other cases for huawei mediapad.
And there is also some Angry Bird neoprene sleeve for Huawei Mediapad.
I hope to purchase a Huawei MediaPad M1.
I read everywhere, and all the reviews state, that the tablet can be used as a phone, however, playing with one in store I find there is no phone software on the device. It is critical that I can use the tablet as a regular hold-it-to-your-ear phone. Will it simply be a matter of installing a dialer and away we go, or is it more complicated than that? Thanks.
Does M-Pen stylus work on M5 8? or just M5 10 Pro?
M5 Pro Only.
The M-Pen and its functions. has anyone used it/them yet? I know the really nice functions from the Galaxy Tab S3 (like screen off note taking) and cool stuff. Does anyone know about the functions of the m-pen? and which apps would you suggest to add to the Stylus the most?
as for note-taking, I hope nebo can hold up to the expectations that are created by their website x.x

I know it's really nice indeed, but the biggest problem is that Android doesn't support stylus, however Samsung has S-pen, google has pixel pen and Huawei has M-Pen, and each company has its drivers and the apps that works with, so third party apps have to support each one of them.
1 just stumbled upon this:https://source.android.com/devices/accessories/stylus seems like stylus support to me?
Most apps that support styluses also support this one. Apps dont have to target specific hardware. I mostly use lecturenotes, handwrite pro, xedo and the preinstalled nebo for huawei. The latter is a pretty cool app, especially the formula editor.
Other than that the pen can take screenshots. Huawei didnt implement a lot of pen specific apps or features. I enjoy it for uni mostly. Unfortunately ezpdf reader doesnt work with android 8 or at least not with this tablet.
Havent found any pressure sensitive apps which wouldnt work with this pen. Try sketchbook for example. It even alters the line with different angles like a real pencil. You can do decent drawings =)

I think nebo is quite good. My handwriting is not recognized all the time ... I am a historian after all ...
I bought my former tablet for the same purpose, using it at university, however, the battery was too bad. I had to charge the Galaxy Tab S3 after 3 lectures (each 90 minutes), and all I did was making notes etc. I switched to the Mediapad M5 Pro, mainly due to this ... (Although I finished my studies last September...)
The Screenshot functionality is kinda ... dunno, useless to me ...
I am using Pen&PDF (free, without adds) for working with pdfs. It's a lot like Samsung's "Write on PDF" (which is not available for other devices, if I am not mistaken)
I hope that some neat features are introduced by this great community, of which I am merely a part, as my coding skills are not that advanced
I had bought the regular M5 10.8 because of the Space Gray color. Does anyone know where I can buy the pen separately? The ones that I saw on ebay are for the M2 tablet.

I too bought the M5 10.8" (non-pro) because of the space gray color. Anyone have recommendations on a stylus/pen for the mediapad m5 (non-pro)?
Don't need it for ultraprecision, just light photo editing.
a friend is using https://www.wacom.com/de-de/products/stylus/bamboo-tip with his Tablets - I tried it with my S3 that I had before and with my Galaxyy S8 - it worked quite good! However, I haven't tried it with the Mediapad M5 (pro) yet...

Help me with my Huawei MediaPad M5 10.8
Hello everyone I need help, I bought the Huawei MediaPad M5 10.8 (not the pro version) and then I bought the Huawei mpen. Well, the tablet does not detect the mpen. I have contacted the technical service by chat on their website and I have been told that the mpen is not compatible. How can this be possible? Can I make it compatible in some way? Thank you.

Its hardware related so nothing can be done...
A friend of mine use MEKO pen (about 20$ on amazon).
I'm gonna buy the m5 non pro because the pro version is too expensive compared to these added features.
M5 non pro with 32Gb and sd 64gb will be good enough. I'll buy this pen for drawing some stuff.

Really?
In Malaysia we have M5 8.4 LTE about $360 USD and M5 pro LTE $460 USD.
For $100 USD you get free men, larger display, 7500mah battery and 4 speakers!
If you are ok with 10.8" then the 100 buck will be worth every penny.
In the US
M5 8" wifi only $300
M5 10" wifi $360
M5 Pro wifi $450
If you really want to buy a 3rd party pen such as the Wacom bamboo pen. It might behoove you to just get the pro version. I ended up selling the m5 10" non pro to buy the M5 Pro version.

How come?
I only got the pro because the difference between regular& pro was about $70.
Hi,
So i've bought Mediapad 10.8" M5 Wifi 32Go and MEKO pen.
It works very well.
300€ for mediapad (with 50€ refund offer) and 13€ for the meko pen.
I'm looking for a 128Gb SD card now.
The pen seems kinda useless to me to be honest?
Hello! I bought a new MediaPad M5 lite with a stylus, but the stylus does not work. Does it need to be turned on or activated or something else? At me such for the first time a stylus. I will be very grateful for the help.

Same thing happened with me.
Turns out mine came without charge.
Charged and works fine.
Hi,
I need to replace my Huawei T1 701w tablet as most of the apps will no longer update on Android 4. Can anyone recommend a cheap 7 inch tablet that is well supported on this forum? Something that maybe supported with custom ROMs for a little while? I only use it for watching media and light browsing. Are there currently custom ROMs for the Fire 7? This is one tablet I am considering but I would want to use it with stock Android rather than Amazons own version.
