Tablet · Huawei Test · 2020
The Huawei MediaPad M6 8.4 256GB is Huawei Test's 2020 tablet featuring a 8.4 inches, 204.6 cm2 (~79.2% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Kirin 980 (7 nm) chipset. It comes with a 6100 mAh battery. At AED 949 in the UAE and ₹21,550 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Huawei MediaPad M6 8.4 delivers a sharp 8.4-inch 2560x1600 LCD panel with 359 ppi, offering crisp text and vibrant colors, though it lacks a high refresh rate. Powered by the Kirin 980’s octa-core CPU, it handles multitasking and media playback smoothly, but lacks stylus support, limiting creative workflows. Its 6100 mAh battery delivers all-day use under moderate loads, yet the 320g weight feels bulky for prolonged one-handed use. Running Android 9 with EMUI 9.1, it misses Google services in UAE and India, restricting app access. In UAE at AED 949, it’s value because the screen and battery outperform similarly priced tablets without Huawei’s optimization. In India at ₹21550, it’s overpriced—competitors like the Samsung Tab A7 Lite offer newer Android, Google apps, and lighter weight for less. Buyers seeking a large, long-lasting screen for reading or video without Google dependency may still find use here, but most will regret the ecosystem gap.
