Honor has confirmed that it will be debuting the
Honor 8C smartphone tomorrow in Beijing, China. A recent report had claimed
that the Chinese manufacturer will be launching the MediaPad T5 tablet
alongside the Honor 8C.
The Weibo post that confirms the arrival of the new
Honor MediaPad T5 reveals that it will be equipped with dual speakers tuned by
Harman Kardon along with Histen 5.0 3D audio technology by Huawei. This
suggests that the MediaPad T5 will be a good device for enjoying videos and
music. The presence of GPU Turbo technology on the MediaPad T5 indicates that
it will also offer good gaming experience.
The official Honor store on Jingdong Mall has two
Honor tablets namely, the Waterplay series and Play Pad 2 (launched as MediaPad
T3 in India in 2017). The Honor Waterplay Tab is a waterproof tablet that is
priced at 1,999 Yuan whereas the Play Pad 2 costs 999 Yuan. Probably, the MediaPad
T5 tablet arriving could be priced between Waterplay and Play Pad 2 tablets.
There is no information on the accurate specs of the
Honor MediaPad T5. However, it is expected to come equipped with a 10.1-inch
screen that may support 2K resolution. The device could be either powered by
the Kirin 710 or Kirin 970 chipset.
As far as the Honor 8C is concerned, it will be
hitting the market as the first Snapdragon 632 powered smartphone. The entire
specs of the phone have been revealed, but its pricing is yet to be confirmed.
The Honor 8C is expected to arrive with 6.26-inch IPS LCD waterdrop notch
screen with HD+ resolution, 4 GB of RAM, 32 GB / 64 GB of inbuilt storage,
4,000mAh battery with 10W charging support, 8-megapixel front camera and
