Read my method for installing apps to an SD card. Great tablet, definitely worth the money.
This tablet is is fantastic. I have always purchased iPad's as I generally prefer the performance of Apple devices however the downside is they cost far more than most Android ones. I have an iPad Mini but decided I needed a larger tablet for streaming services like Netflix and Prime Video but I didn't want to outlay too much and this tablet seemed the perfect choice. It helps I have a TV that has android OS installed so naturally I can pair my Huawei MediaPad to my Chromecast for stream mirroring.The 10 inch screen is great, it's as clear as you need it to be, very crisp and the colours are as vibrant as any other tablet I have previously used. The weight is good, it feels as though it's extremely well made and after testing it the performance I can say it's fantastic, Huawei have done a great job by manufacturing a very affordable tablet but also enabling it to have high-end performance. In comparison to my iPad Mini the response time for app loading, stream loading etc. is non-existent, it performs just as well so considering this cost the best part of around 60% less it was worth the investment.Now the downside (and the only downside I might add) to this tablet is by default you cannot install or transfer apps to the SD card. This is a problem for many as you do not want to eat into your internal storage if you like to download movies and TV shows for offline viewing as the 32GB will quickly disappear if you do. I managed to find an alternative method which allows you to store the downloaded data to an SD card, that method is:On the tablet via a browser (I used Chrome) search for 'apkpure', generally it's the first option in any search list, when you see it click on it and download it. When downloaded and installed this app will appear on screen and acts as a secondary app store to the Google Play one. Open apkpure, as you will see you can directly download the apk's of nearly all of the apps that are available on the Google Play store (making the Play store redundant). I managed to download the Netflix and Prime Video apps, and within those apps you can select the SD card as the default storage for downloads in the advanced setting areas (open Netflix, go to advanced settings and enable the SD card storage option). From there on anything you download for offline viewing will be stored to the SD card so you are not losing internal memory. It worked perfectly for me on this very tablet, I hope it works for you.Overall I would highly recommend this tablet if you are looking for one that performs as good as high-end ones but doesn't come with the same price.

Excellent Huawei Tech! Five Stars.
** This is a review for the M5 Lite 10 **I have a Huawei mobile phone which I have had for a while and its never let me down and has some great features. I researched lots of tablets before deciding on this one, Samsung S6 Lite, Ipad Mini, Microsoft Surface Go etc. I picked this based on reviews on amazon and Web reviews.Good- The build quality is surprisingly beautiful, a very slim profile, all metal back that curves at the edges, its weighty without being heavy, it's really nice to hold in the hands.- There is an on/off button and volume button, operation is easy just simply hold the on/off button and it cranks to life in around 30 seconds or so.- The display has a great range of colour, nothing feels over saturated, the pixels are well defined if a tiny bit sharp on some Web pages.I did actually almost send this back after ten minutes of surfing YouTube, there was a huge pixellation effect which I couldn't stand. However after reading up It was pointed out to me that I had YouTube set to the lowest resolution which was why, you can increase resolution on videos individually so bear that in mind!- The videos in hi res or full HD are just great, no issues, rich colours with deep solid blacks. The screen resolution for this price and size is fantastic.- The finger print sensor is super simple to set up and works just fine, it's set on the front on a tiny home button sensor, never prompting me to take a second go.- The touchscreen is spot on, it doesn't need tapping twice, it just works. Taps, swipes, up down, left right, it's very dependable.- The tablet comes with a lot of preinstalled apps and it's up to you how you would like to customise, it's really easy to just delete what you won't use.- The tablet comes installed with Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint along with Outlook, this isn't stated in the listing so it's a huge bonus.- The sound, there are four speakers one in each corner, the sound is brilliant. For such a slim profile it really packs a punch, it's immersive, doesn't stutter at peak high volume, crisp and clear speech and a wonderful sound stage when playing music. It's really very impressive.- It came with around 50% charge and once that was exhausted it took around two hours to fast charge to approximately 90%. I haven't exhausted it fully again to measure how long each charge lasts I just top it up but it doesn't seem battery hungry at all whether in use or on standby.- Apps open and close at pace, no jitters or issues, some aren't optimised for tablet use but that's the same for a lot of apps on any tablet.- Portrait and Landscape mode swap very swiftly and smoothly.- The interface I am used to because I have a Huawei phone but again its super simple to navigate, it is based on Android with a skin on top but if you've used any android device it will be familiar, if your using an android for the first time its in no way complex, it is user friendly.- Multiple apps and programmes running at the same time are handled with ease, it's a powerful tablet especially at this price point.- I haven't used the external storage yet so can't comment on that.Could be better- A handful of times in the week I have had the tablet the facial recognition has prompted me to try again, it may be my face, it may be the way I'm holding the tablet and at what angle or it could be the software, not a big issue.- The cameras, the cameras may as well not be there. I struggle to see why you would use a camera on a tablet since every mobile phone today has a camera with 10mp plus and allsorts of software to modify your shots. The cameras on this tablet are really an afterthought, the shots are very sharp, lots of blown highlights and pixellation.However, having tested the cameras I very much doubt I'll use them again so it's just not a problem, they are there if needed.- The only real niggle I have with the tablet is when in portrait mode my fingers naturally hover around the sleep button, to start with I was constantly accidentally knocking it and it was frustrating, however after a few days muscle memory starts to kick in and your holding position adapts so I have more of less nullified this now.Overall I really didn't expect so much from such a small tablet that isn't either a Samsung or an Apple Device, and at such a competitive price. It's truly a brilliant tablet, great display, amazing sound, tip top build quality, multi apps, Microsoft Office, fast and smooth.If you are in the market for a new tablet and haven't considered a Huawei then really do read up on this, it's a great great tablet with so much on offer for the money it costs.Highly highly recommended.Five Stars.
