HUAWEI Matepad 11 Sound Joy Black Bundle, 11 Inch Tablet with M-Pencil and Keyboard, 6 GB RAM 128 GB ROM, Grey, with Sound Joy Bluetooth Speaker, Devialet Collaboration, 26 Hours Playback

Previously I'd been an enthusiastic Huawei owner due to the superior build quality of their products. When the US ban came in restricting access to Google Play Services (and other suppliers) I stopped buying Huawei. However this tablet, and all I had heard about it, peaked my curiosity and I decided to take the plunge again.What a great decision!This tablet is everything I could have hoped for and much more. The screen is brilliant and the sound is the best I've ever heard. The build quality is fantastic and the keyboard works a treat. The Snapdragon 865 processor and 6gb ram gives me the same speed and performance as my i7 laptop.And as for the embargo on apps? It seems the suppliers have come up with their own workaround by uploading the apk files to numerous platforms. Of course you lose the automatic update function of Playstore but that's hardly an issue. For my favourite apps like Keep and Google Calendar I use the Web versions shortcut to my homescreen. They load perfectly, easily as fast as the app versions and work just the same.This brilliant device is also great value for money. Trust me, I'm fussy as heck and I can't fault my Matepad 11.

I was very circumspect about purchasing from a brand I had never used before with a completely new OS and it's own applications. However, I am really pleased with it in quality, function and value for money. Mostly, it is being used for word processing and other fairly simple things, I'm not using it for graphic art or anything like that but it does seem to have the capability and the m-pencil is not only efficient but feels nice to hold and has a good weight and balance to it (it also comes with different tips to create other effects) the keyboard is thin and light yet also sturdy, wrapping around the device as a clamshell protective cover. The whole thing feels compact but substantial, magnetising together to carry as a unit. I found the functions easy to figure out (historically I preferred android to apple, but now I like this better than either) and it charges swiftly on a new style USB cable. Compatible with O365, and a friendly online support community.

I am currently in rahabilitation following a fairly major operation, so this tablet is a major lifeline for me. Using it mainly for video play, the screen is quite bright at low level settings, the sound is pretty clear with some power behind it. the Perl search app is great for finding alternative sites for app downloads, and so far I've had no problems with that regard.

fast delivery, good quality tablet

The overall tablet is good but one of the main thing missing is Google Play Services, Its hard to download main services such as one note etc..Also the pen is good but for some apps, the line become squiggly even if drawn a straight line.

being a techno phobe, I was advised this would be good value, but I find it incredibly difficult to navigate and after going around in circles trying to add a security app I find this is not an Android but a Harmony O S, this basically means nothing to me other than it does not like Google and many apps will not load, so be very wary unless you know what to expect with this type of tablet

I like the tablet it is very useful. I know its system not like ios or android but huawei system is not bad. But I don’t like battery life

Perfect except for Google services you have to use 3rd party apps to get Google services which is annoying didn't know reviews give different views which is good but the but is Google only Google services will make it better than Samsung galaxy tab s7.
