Pad 5 Pro is having Widevine Level 1 already, so you will not cope with any restrictions on Netflix and Amazon Prime. Youtube is working fine here, I don´t use the others. I´m on MIUI 13.0.8 chinese/english version.

Thank you very much friend for answering, I made the purchase of mine and it's on its way
Hi !
I'm looking for a mi pad 5 pro and I saw there are some issues on widevine and Dolby/HDR.
While Widevine seems to be fixed, could anyone tell me if HDR and Dolby Vision are supported by the Mi Pad 5 Pro ?
Thank you in advance !

I'm really thorn in between these 2 choices... Currently the Mipad 4 LTE variant is still not available in China... Considering if should wait for it or go with the Mediapad M5... Liked the dual speakers and the higher resolution on the M5 but the Mipad 4 price is hard to beat... Any advise ??
I end up cancel the LTE MIPAD 4 order (i guess no stock available) and buy M5. The price differrent is not alot for me as i order Mipad 4 from China compare to now buying M5 from my country), the different is approx 50-70 usd.
If you can live with the bluetooth wifi issue, M5 better choice which has better dual speakers in more ideal position (for landscape mode and sound quality), fingerprint reader. Mipad4 has slightly bigger battery, 3.5mm jack and more portable in term of the size.
Kirin960 vs SN660 ( no sure about this, antutu result show kirin960 slightly better)
OS wise no really sure, never use xiaomi and huawei, i hope both still can receive monthly security update at least for another 2 years.
Both are good tablets for me, i hope the bluetooth wifi issue wont bother me lot since i plan to use LTE network most of the time.
im not sure which one is better for me as well. I do not like the huawei android version and i do not like the mi pad 4 android version. So for custom roms i think the mi pad 4 will be better than the mediapad m5. BUT the mediapad m5 already got an unofficial version of lineageos which surprises me a lot. Not sure how many developers will grab the mi pad 4... So i might will wait some more time before i make my decision...
I will mainly use it for PDF reading and i am not sure if they are good for it, both have an aspect ratio of 16:10, i think. Not perfect for reading...
Not sure if the higher resolution of the m5 will have an impact on how the papers will look like. All the reviews, especially the chinese / asian ones, focus on gaming. It looks like all of them use it just for gaming...

Could you please explain what do you mean by saying "Bluetooth wifi issue"?
Look here for Bluetooth wifi issue.. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-m5/help/wifi-speed-slow-bluetooth-t3767604
Conclusion they don't work well together. Poor wifi and poor Bluetooth..

No update fix after all these months?
No. It is probably a chip or antenna issue.

So that's the reason I will not buy MediaPad M5.
Thank you so much for your quick replies.
Well if that's a bummer for you then find another. Samsung is mostlikely great and twice the price. Xiaomi may have the same issue.
Anyhow, the MediaPad is a really great and very affordable tablet. I like it.
People need to understand that the wifi/Bluetooth issue has been solved just use 5ghz frequency on wifi and they both work fine simultaneously!

Maybe people don't have 5ghz router. It is still a shame for Huawei Tablets to have such an issue. It is not a super cheap 100$ Chinese tablet.
I have no problems with bluetooth and wifi on 2.4ghz
Had the Mi Pad 4 for 2 days and got rid of it immediately. I would like to have the option to make calls. No luck with the Mi Pad. The face unlock is godawful on the Mi Pad 4. There is no fingerprint sensor, so you constantly need to swipe your unlock code. The Gboard keyboard does not support popup keys and the tablet does not vibrate. So there is no visual or haptic feedback to typing, really weird. It is fast, memory ist double compared to the Mediapad, the screen is ok, sound is ok but overall, the Mediapad beats the Mi Pad in every category. For media consumption you also have to live with no HD on Netflix and Prime. It's worth to shell out the extra Dollars for the much better overall experience.
Just buy a xiaomi mi router 3 (100m wam) (20$) or 4 (1gb wam) (30$) and connect it with 5ghz, seriously, 2,4ghz is kinda pointless at this point
Hey guys,
does anyone know which Widevine CDM Security Level is present with the Mate 20 Pro?
Thanks
L1 is on all recent mid to high end Huawei/Honor phones (Mate 10 Pro, P20/Pro etc..), would not be different for this one[emoji6]

That's good to know, thanks.
I was asking because there was just L3 present on my MediaPad M5 when I got it. At this time it wasn't even possible to play content in HD on popular platforms like Netflix or Amazon Prime video.
Fortunately Huawei fixed that issue OTA.
Hi I already ordered the Honor 8x but only later I realized that you cant put LineageOS on it.
I can still stop the order but what would be alternatives with good value for a cheap price (especially camera+dual sim).
Would the Poco f1 be the next best choice?

Well if you are from India your best options will be
Redmi note 5 pro
Asus Zenfone max pro m1 6gb
Or you can give this a try
Moto power one
Xiaomi mi A2 lite good bang for buck and good development going on, I'm selling my 8x no bootloader no development screw honor [emoji16]

Thank you guys for the suggestions. I'm located in Europe so the Redmi 5 Pro is sadly not an option.
The Xiaomi mi A2 Lite looks quite good, I'll have a closer look on that. Maybe the camera is a bit to weak for me.

I hope a lot of people don't buy it because of that. Like many others I contacted their support with no luck.
It's pretty unfortunate as the phone would be nice.
I'm using Mi 6 so far has been 2 years. It used to have this BUG. But I'm very happy because Xiaomi fixed this BUG when updating MIUI 10 :angel:.
Now, I just bought a new K20 pro. I was surprised when this BUG reappeared. I have tried flashing many roms like Global, EU, CN, PE, Havoc,... but it does not solve this BUG .
Please CONFIRM if you are also facing this issue.
This BUG on my k20 pro in video below:
I watched that video and tested with the same app but cannot get mine to fault like the video.

Thank for your feedback!
Mi Pad 1 - 05/14
Mi Pad 2 - 11/15
Mi Pad 3 - 04/17
Mi Pad 4 - 06/18
Release cycle seems to be between 14-18months. The Mi Pad 4 was announced 06/18 and it has been almost 18mo since then so a Mi Pad 5 coming soon?
I don't think

It appears to be both are end of life. They made a statement suggesting that its due to the lack of demand for the product.

Barely no one wants Android tablets.
yeah...... that's why I had to wait 3 months to get mine....
I have not heard anyting about new mi pad, but I read news about new new Redmi pad. We will see new pads in Redmi line only , I think.
It has a sense. Mi pad 4 was released with android 8 and died with android 8. The not important devices without any android upgrades will be moved to redmi brand.

I'm very much hoping there's an 8-inch model of the Mi Pad 5. I can't bear to think that we won't ever see a more powerful 8" tablet than the Mi Pad 4 :'(
IMHO, (Android) tablets are the best for media consumption and heavy reading.
I've had two Asus, one (pricey) LG, and the Mi Pad 4 and I like them very much.
What I don't like is to get expensive, outdated and/or unwieldy hardware, and that's why I don't care for low-rez displays, feeble processors and 10-inch form factors.
Granted, tablets tend to last much longer than smartphones but when companies say there's no demand for tablets, what they really mean is there's no demand they are willing to supply for the profit they want.
Build me a tablet with a FHD color e-ink display, medium to high processor, decent stereo speakers and long battery life, along with amenities like sd card slot, headphone jack and USB OTG and I'll reach for my wallet in a second....

Looks like the Mi Pad 5 is going to launch tomorrow. I've seen the specs on Geekbench and the look really good, snapdragon 870 and 120Hz display. I'm still happy with my Mi Pad 4 it's running great on Android 11 only thing I don't like about it is speakers on the bottom, would be nice to have a speaker on left and right while using it in landscape.
If I do get one I'll wait for a bit for the price to come down, I'm in no rush to get one.
How do you have android 11 on Mi Pad 4?
