Huawei offers a glimpse of MediaPad

MANILA, Philippines - The MediaPad provides a fabulous user-experience in a stylish, high-performing and ultra-portable package.

The MediaPad is Huawei Device’s smartest, slimmest and lightest tablet yet, measuring just 10.5 mm (0.4 inch) deep and weighing approximately 390 grams (0.86 pound).

It supports 1080P full HD video playback and features a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera and five-megapixel auto focus rear-facing camera with HD video recording capabilities.

With HSPA+ 14.4Mbps and high-speed Wi-Fi 802.11n Internet connectivity, the MediaPad doesn’t just entertain — it also keeps you connected in an instant.

“With the Huawei MediaPad, we are demonstrating yet again that design, functionality and performance are within anyone’s reach. The seven-inch tablet remains the preferred size for portability, and Android Honeycomb 3.2 is dedicated to enhance the full potential of seven-inch tablets. Huawei is very pleased to be the first to offer this package to consumers globally and most especially here in the Philippines,” said Zack Zhangxiang, Device Group head of Huawei Philippines.

“The MediaPad opens up new worlds of entertainment for consumers by removing the barriers to tablet ownership, enabling access to a truly high-quality mobile entertainment experience,” added Zhangxiang.

An out-of-this-world entertainment experience

The MediaPad supports HSPA+ data services, Flash 10.3 videos and comes pre-installed with applications such as Facebook, Twitter, Let’s Golf and Documents to Go.

With the seven-inch IPS touch screen, the MediaPad offers a standout visual experience for photos, movies and applications. Entertainment and gaming experience are taken to the next level with its 1.2GHz dual-core processor, HD playback and HDMI port.

With MediaPad, Huawei Device aims to reach a significant number of its target market, the Young Social Networkers (YSNs).

Emerald Dimapilis, terminal marketing manager of Huawei Device Philippines, said, “YSNs are all around us. Wherever you are in the world — whether in a bar in New York, a coffee shop in Makati, a beach in Palawan, or a busy shopping street in London — you will find groups of YSNs. Progressiveness is the defining characteristic of this group.”

‘The MediaPad opens up new worlds of entertainment for consumers,’ says Zack Zhangxiang, Device Group head of Huawei Philippines.
