Huawei T1: To buy or not to buy?

Huawei has added yet another new tablet in its array of phones and tablets. Huawei expressing all its innovations with Honor series of smartphones and tablets also introduced the Honor T1 tablet in India, which is quite competitively priced with hardware and price tag which can give some relief to budget conscious buyers. It was launched in New Delhi recently. Its features and uses are more or less a lot like other tablets available in the market, but here is a review which I would give as a consumer, and whether or not I would recommend this phone to others.

To start with, I will talk about the design, build and display of the tablet. It has a large 8 inch form factor with display which is pretty decent and the build quality considering the price tag, is pretty decent as well. The rear has metallic build which is pleasantly surprising at this price range. Both MicroSD card slot and SIM card are housed under a flap on the right edge. A chrome lining boarders the front side and adds to its appeal. The tablet feels quite slim with body thickness is approximately of 7.9 mm. The weight is well balanced as well. Neither too heavy, neither too light.

The 8 inch display flaunts of 1280 x 800 pixels. It’s an IPS LCD display panel with good colors and the viewing angles are worth mentioning. The sharpness is most you can ask for under 10k price range as most manufacturer are still sticking to this resolution or even lower 1024 x 600 pixels. The display is not something extraordinary but won’t disappoint you either. It has clear display and visuals appear quite vivid. But then, if you are looking out for an exceptional feature in its display, you are most likely not getting the desired outcomes.  

Technically speaking, Huawei is using 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 200 MSM8212 quad core with Adreno 302 GPU. The humble quad core SoC is aided by 1 GB RAM to facilitate multi tasking. Clearly this device is meant for basic day to day usage, enjoying multimedia content on a large display, reading activities, running multiple apps, etc, and is quite capable of handling such stuff at one go. We didn’t find any User Interface lag, but this is subjected to change if your usage lies on the heavier side of the spectrum. 

With such large form factor, photography won’t be high on most people’s priority list, but Huawei has provided with a 5 MP rear camera none the less with a VGA front camera for basic video calling. The camera performance is amazing, although it might not come across as. I would have preferred a single and better front camera in a tablet, but Huawei is sticking to the conventional market requirements. In all, it is a great phone for those who are thinking of switching to a tablet. Give it a try!
