Thanks for another great tablet review....this may not be directly related but I wonder if you have reviewed (or have any experience) with apps for handwriting directly on PDF documents?
@teoh yi chie which stylus supported tab will you recommend for notes taking purpose? Huawei Mediapad M5 lite/ Huawei mediapad m5 pro / samsung galaxy S6 lite?
Very nice review thank you very much. Did you test common apps like facebook, youtube, are they look good and functional on this tablet (doesn't look like big mobile phone)?
Teoh Yi Chie thanks, I have an iPad Facebook app looks very good on it in landscape. doesn't look like mobile app. I know that it depends on how the app was designed.
I'm thinking of buying one but with the recent Google drama I don't know if it'll be a worthwhile investment. I need it to last me at least 2/3 years. Thoughts?
Is it possible to use onenote with this tablet ? I like to take handwriting notes wtih one note i got used to it with my phone samsung galaxy. Is it possible with the M5 ?
I am looking for a note taking tablet that supports multiple language input (English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese and Russian) with handwriting recognition. Any ideas?
Hi TYC, Do you recommend to have a Tempered glass for added protection? I'm just worried that the stylus might feel a bit more slippery. Should I just get a film type of protection?
If you already have a case, probably no need for a screen protector. But the glass on this tablet is really slippery. I'm not sure if those clear screen protectors would make it less slippery.
Hi I have a question. I wanna buy a tablet but I also want it to be future-proof. Right now I'm between two tablets. The Samsung galaxy tab s5e VS The Huawei mediapad m5 pro.Which one would you prefer
@@teohyc Thank you for the response by the way. But I also wanted to ask which one is better for gaming and just watching RUclips. The Huawei m-pen I think it was the M-pen. It just sounds too good to pass up on. It seems so cool but also if the Samsung is really better at those tasks I mentioned earlier then I'm gonna take the Samsung. Btw is there a very big difference in 4gigs VS 6 gigs of ram. I was told not but I guess if I want a future proof tablet the 6 gig s5e would be better. I also have an Huawei phone right now so that would be cool to have my phone and tablet from the same company. And also last but not least which one has better speakers and battery in your opinion. Already thank you so much for the response an sorry for being annoying and asking so much stuff :)
Hi, I am planning to buy a used tablet / convertible for PDF editing and writing (Pen). My budget is around 350€ max used. Are there any used tablets you could recommend? I have found Samsung S3 Tabs for around 200€ used, a Lenovo S1 Tablet for about 170€ used, a Huawei Media Pad M5 for around 150€. I already use a Wacom Intuos graphic tablet with Pen (if that is of any use). Thanks in advance.
@@teohyc Thanks for you advice. Would you prefer the Ipad 6 over the S3 or S4? Are there any good Windows 10 alternatives too - ideally Citavi 6 would be working ;-) Thanks
@@teohyc samsung galaxy palm rejection 100%, because the pen has a hover, and pen touch is different method than hand touch.So it can easily see that when you are pointing with pen. And at those times turn off hand touch. Have a galaxy note 4, complete hand rejection on 5 year old phone.
Drawing experience is alright but not as good as iPad of course. However this is much cheaper. This is Android, not desktop. If you use a lot of desktop software, you will feel the limitation.
When I’m when I pick this tablet up and test it out I was not able to see the pictures to the tablet or to SD card that just seem not normal to me am I missing something
I'm looking for tab to take my handwriting notes in meetings and to study and keep my notes on it. Will it be enough or shall I go for Samsung Note tablets ?!!
does anyone have any idea where I can find this pen?? I've lost mine that came with the tablet and I cant find it anywhere it's insane. If anyone knows a good replacement with the same features let me kno please.
I've seen some reviews that said this tablet has issues with Wifi & Bluetooth. I couldn't figure out if they were saying that both wifi and bluetooth have issues, or there are issues when they're both turned on together. Did you experience any issues?
@@teohyc Ok, good to hear. On another subject, and you ship a brother some nasi lemak?! haha I can't get it in Texas. Maybe I need to start a Toast Box franchise over here
Have you tested M Lite pen on Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8 (not M5 pro) ? Does it really work? Because i have read this : uk.community.huawei.com/other-products-52/how-to-connect-mpen-stylus-to-m5-tablet-302
Teoh Yi Chie but I heard someone said not supported mediapad 5M 10.8 32GB! ,said just for mediapad 5m pro !! Is there any pen support mediapad 5m 10.8 5m?
@@muneerasalman1649 As far as I know, the Mediapad M5 sadly doesn't have any pen support. The M5 light supports the Creative Capacity Pen and the M5 Pro supports the M-Pen.
So the m5 pro and the m5 lite both support the pen? What do you mean with palm rejection? Does that mean I can rest my hand on the screen while writing?
If it is just handwriting, both are quite evenly match. Other than that, the M5 Pro has larger screen, significantly better speakers, and the microsd card slot for expandable storage. There is also the cheaper M5 lite.
@@MdoesArt I bought iPad 3 a few years ago, it stopped being upgraded a long while ago. it's also incredibly slow cause Apple slowed it down. whereas I have a Samsung S3 which has custom ROMs upto Android 8 if you want to make use of your Android tablet again, just put a custom ROM on it. I think Apple is much worse at levying that hidden tax
Depends on your budget. Both are equally good except Tab S3 has better screen. But M5 has larger screen which is what I prefer. Pen performance is going to be similar
@@mouradcohen2058 I'm not sure how the ban will affect Huawei. But in the future even if they can't access Google Playstore, all your apps will still be there, just not updated. Or maybe Huawei will have their own OS by then. It's uncertain at the moment. Maybe you can get a good secondhand unit at a good price with all these bad news. It is still a good tablet.
@@LLLLLLL156 Depends on what you want to do with your tablet. If you want to draw, iOS has many nice drawing apps. If you don't need to draw, Android tablets are more versatile. And in this case, the M5 Pro is better in many aspects. I'm assuming you're referring to the iPad non-Pro 2018
will it do multiple tasking....
will it...have 2 screens open....at the same time
As always, best review with writing n drawing 👍. The M5 pro-definitely considering it. Thanks much.
can you try Huawei MediaPad M6 pro with M-Pen lite
Huawei Mediapad M5 Pro really cool.
Can u do the the same with mi pad 4 plus
What other stylus can be used on the Huawei m5 pad lite and which are compatible? Thanks a lot!!!
Thanks for another great tablet review....this may not be directly related but I wonder if you have reviewed (or have any experience) with apps for handwriting directly on PDF documents?
Not sure about that. Maybe do a Google search on best PDF apps on Android?
I'd suggest you try XODO app.
If Huawei has not supplied mpen lite them which stylus do you recommend available to India?
@teoh yi chie which stylus supported tab will you recommend for notes taking purpose? Huawei Mediapad M5 lite/ Huawei mediapad m5 pro / samsung galaxy S6 lite?
Can you make a Review about m6?
Hello cool Video can i put the hand on the display and write? ☺️
Yes
Great review thanks!
Very nice review thank you very much. Did you test common apps like facebook, youtube, are they look good and functional on this tablet (doesn't look like big mobile phone)?
Those apps work well. Facebook do look like a big mobile phone, even on iPad. So it depends on the app you use, not the tablet.
Teoh Yi Chie thanks, I have an iPad Facebook app looks very good on it in landscape. doesn't look like mobile app. I know that it depends on how the app was designed.

Should not be a problem
Will you be reviewing the m5 lite? I love your videos and would like your oppinon on the lite version.
Probably not reviewing that
Teoh Yi Chie i love your videos, but i have the same request actually about m5 lite, since it comes with stylus. Drawing and taking note experience.
Also waiting for a m5 lite review
hi in amazon can i get this tab pen .please let me know
Any plan on reviewing the Mediapad M6?
Probably not
Sir, could you recommend applications to edit pdf slides please?
Am considering this tablet to write on pdf lecture slides.
Pen&PDF
@@MrPoorvank thank you. But I've been using squid for some time now. So far so good.
@@brothermandms let me check it out as well 😊
Sir for note taking which is more preferable samsung galaxy s6 lite or huwaie mediamade 5 lite ??
Samsung S Pen is better
@@teohyc thank you sir 😊
seen it selling for 400 ebay up case was 30 not sure if pens included
How can I write on pdf
Is it possible to use onenote with this tablet ? I like to take handwriting notes wtih one note i got used to it with my phone samsung galaxy. Is it possible with the M5 ?
You can. OneNote is available on Android also
@@teohyc Does the Pen work well with OneNote on Android? Have you tried?
Can you make notes on PDF and Power Point documents? Thanks
You can
I am looking for a note taking tablet that supports multiple language input (English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese and Russian) with handwriting recognition. Any ideas?
I have a weird question. Is there any kind of film to put on the screen, so the pen doesn't slip that much(aka like a paper)?
You can get matte screen protector. Not sure the exact size though.
Can you load a template on the tablet and write on that.. For example a weekly time sheet for work?
You can. You just need to find the right app for that.
What is the refresh rate for this Huawei stylus pen? Apple pro is 120hz
Any idea how the whole ban USA-China thing is going to affect the functionality of the tablet?
Not sure about that but it is definitely not going to make the tablet unusable. Just that there may not be future Android updates
I need a tablett for hand making notes in school and do not want to buy and ipad, would you recomend samsung s4 before hawai m5 pro?
Go for Samsung
I have mediapad pro m5. I think the pen is not that good. Dont know about samsung.
Will the pen finish, or will it last forever?
Can dis m pen would work in honor media t3 tablet????

Get the Tab S3 or Tab S4. Check out prices for iPad 6 (refurbished from Apple) with Apple Pencil too
@@teohyc Thanks for you advice. Would you prefer the Ipad 6 over the S3 or S4? Are there any good Windows 10 alternatives too - ideally Citavi 6 would be working ;-) Thanks
Is any app save drawing in vector file format like svg, eps, cdr?
This pen wil work on huwaei t5 model also ??
Probably not
@@teohyc tqew sir
Have much difference between taking notes in Huawei M5 and Galaxy Tab S4?
M5 screen is very slippery and for taking notes that might be preferred as you want to write fast.
@@teohyc thank you for the answer. What about the m5 pro, m5 lite and m6. Which one would be the best for handwriting?
And what about palm rejection ? Thank you
Palm rejection is reasonably good.
@@teohyc samsung galaxy palm rejection 100%, because the pen has a hover, and pen touch is different method than hand touch.So it can easily see that when you are pointing with pen. And at those times turn off hand touch.
Have a galaxy note 4, complete hand rejection on 5 year old phone.
Hi. Is it have palm rejection when using Google Keep for writing?
Yes it has
How dose the palm rejection work? Is it like the iPad or dose it have to register the pen first?
You don't need to pair the pen with the tablet or app. The pen is ready for use all the time.
Is your palm able to rest on the screen while you write? Like for stability?
Yes
Is it good in desk top mode as a laptop? And is it good for artist like iPad pro or not ?
Drawing experience is alright but not as good as iPad of course. However this is much cheaper. This is Android, not desktop. If you use a lot of desktop software, you will feel the limitation.
@@teohyc ok can I use and download Photoshop in the desktop mode of this tab ??
@@thebeastandthewest5191 No, you can only download android apps
Thanks!

Files are saved by default to local storage. You should able to open up recent files from the app you use to see them.
@@teohyc هص٨ب٣انصةنغيظقبمثاتض٧اي٤هيث٦
Comparing to Samsung Tab S4 S-pen, which one is better in note taking?
Tab S4 is slightly better because the pen tip is smaller
Is the pen can use for m6 8,4"?
Not sure about. Look for the stylus advertised to go with M6. If there isn’t any, then only those rubber or disc tip stylus will work
does this pen work with any android device?
I'm looking for tab to take my handwriting notes in meetings and to study and keep my notes on it.
Will it be enough or shall I go for Samsung Note tablets ?!!
This works fine for taking notes
Does the smaller mediapad also support pen stylus ?
Yes. The pen is the M Pen Lite
@@teohyc really? The stylus can be used with other Huawei models?
@@harisel Not sure about that. Probably not.
does anyone have any idea where I can find this pen?? I've lost mine that came with the tablet and I cant find it anywhere it's insane. If anyone knows a good replacement with the same features let me kno please.
It's called Huawei M-Pen
@@teohyc I kno the name i was just asking where can I buy it if u kno
Dose he support Arabic and persian language please ??

Not that I know of. The pen does not need Bluetooth

I think the food would not be edible when shipped across the world 😂
Does it support windows, like how Samsung s4 supports
It does not
Any solution to be able to write in the m5 normal, non pro?
Get the M Lite Pen
Have you tested M Lite pen on Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8 (not M5 pro) ? Does it really work? Because i have read this : uk.community.huawei.com/other-products-52/how-to-connect-mpen-stylus-to-m5-tablet-302
Can he change handwritting to txt doc.???
Use Nebo software
Sir is this stylus support for honor media pad3 t10?
Probably no bro
is the stylus working with p30pro?
Not sure. I don’t have that phone to test.
Does the pen work with apple ipad?
No
Does the lite version have palm rejection too?
Yes

@@teohyc thanks for the quick reply!
Concern here is $450USD price. The M5 pro with pen costs more than iPad 9.7 + apple pencil, which has a superior handwriting experience.
If it is just handwriting, both are quite evenly match. Other than that, the M5 Pro has larger screen, significantly better speakers, and the microsd card slot for expandable storage. There is also the cheaper M5 lite.

if you want to make use of your Android tablet again, just put a custom ROM on it. I think Apple is much worse at levying that hidden tax
@@teohyc The price seems reasonable but do you think it's better than galaxy tab S3? (which has a similar price)
@@Leon-pn6rb I actually prefer larger screen so I would go with the Huawei. Performance in all other aspects pretty similar to S3.
I would be interested in buying that tablet. Can you contact me with the price? Thank you.
You can find the price on Amazon, eBay.
M5 or Tab S3 to study...?
Depends on your budget. Both are equally good except Tab S3 has better screen. But M5 has larger screen which is what I prefer. Pen performance is going to be similar
_And also a slight delay between the pen and pad_
The video doesnt really show the lag, in fact no video showing any pen latency is correct, the low framerate is at fault here.
*Kind of satisfying but could be more when using the new iPad pro 2018*
