The MediaPad M5 Lite is Huawei’s latest tablet packed with family-friendly features. These include Kid’s Corner, advanced Eye-comfort mode, and a fingerprint sensor that can be used to enable parental controls.
The built-in fingerprint sensor can be used to set up profiles for sharing with the family and to set access parameters for certain users. Kid’s Corner will allow parents to set time limits and control access to content. While the Distance sensor, Posture Detect sensor, Ambient Light sensor, and Blue Ray Filter work together to protect your vision.
When the Distance sensor detects your face within 9.8-inches it will warn you and suggest moving back to a further distance. The Posture Detect sensor does something similar by detecting when you’re viewing at an extreme angle and provides posture guidance. While the Blue Ray Filter and Ambient Light sensor work together to adapt the color and brightness of the display based on your surroundings.
The MediaPad M5 Lite comes with a 10.1-inch 1920 x 1200 Full HD IPS LCD display. It is powered by a Kirin 659 CPU, 3GB of RAM, includes 32GB of storage, and is expandable up to 256GB with a microSD card. Out of the box, it runs Android 8.0 with EMUI 8.0 and includes a quad speaker setup.
Huawei has packed in a large 7500mAh battery along with Huawei QuickCharge technology that can provide a full charge within 3 hours. Once fully charged the MediaPad M5 Lite offers up to 13 hours of video playback and 8.5 hours of gaming. The MediaPad M5 Lite is expected to retail for $299 from Amazon and Newegg beginning in late January. It will come in Space Gray and also include the M-Pen lite stylus.
