Review on Huawei MediaPad Android Aluminum International by Andrey Popov ᠌

Overall, it's a great tablet if you're on a budget, and the few issues I had were minor. To begin, a tablet with a screen size more than 8 inches still requires a resolution of at least 1900x1080. However, only the problems with scaling fonts and icons in specific programs are evident. In comparison, the overall picture seems a bit soapy. Second, the camera, ports, and controls are a pain to use. While it's obvious that the design was crafted with a tablet's landscape (horizontal) orientation in mind, reading on a tablet in a vertical orientation is awkward because the controls are located at the top of the screen instead of the side. Or how about this one: Because the ports are on one short side and the buttons are on the other, I had to get used to placing the tablet horizontally rather than the usual vertically when charging. It's inexplicable that they weren't both made to be used on the same side. Thirdly, once again, the speaker's placement is poorly thought out. The speaker is really quite powerful, but it is situated at the very end of the tablet's bottom edge, making it utterly inaudible when the tablet is placed on a table or, say, on the stomach when watching a movie while lying down.
