Brilliant review. Good choice of feature comparisons , Clear well paced communication. One of the best reviewers I have seen and heard on UA-cam.
Thanks for making this.
Great video!
A fairly balanced presentation. Unlike other videos where they try to convince you ...
Great comparison video cleared many of my misconceptions and doubts.
Glad you enjoyed it
Outstanding! Loved it! Thank you!
Thank you for the support
Thanks for the review. Very informative. I have just purchased a M5 10.8.
How is the wifi connection
Been wanting to see this comparison!
hope it answered you questions
Informative comparison. Thanx!
thank you
Great review. Thanks!
Thank you for the support
Hey please tell : is this huawei mediapad m5 or m5 pro has only one antenna that means it will lag while playing with Internet and using Bluetooth headphones . Or does it have multi antenna?
Once again, expertly presented 👌👌👌
thank you
Very very comprehenecive . Thanks
I am buying one tomorrow and your explanation of all functions was excellent.
Great review. I agree the MediaPad speakers sounded better.
TK Truly agree they have come a long way and I like Both so definitely would be a hard decision for me as well. Nice to see that they have different options for Consumers to chose. Always enjoy your Videos, Deb.✌👍👌
Thanks Deb, nice to see you in the comments again.
perfect comparison, gr8 job!
Thank you for the support
Great video TK Bay. I still think you need that keyboard case and bluetooth mouse for the Tab S4, to make full use of DeX ;). I LOVE my Tab S4 even more since your last tablet comparison. I used to use a Chromebook and a Tab A ... now I have a tablet AND productivity device in one, and use its features to the fullest. One thing I'd like to know is, why Samsung hasn't included the Video Enhancement and Theme Store features into the Tab S4 (and S3) like they've had on the Galaxy phones since the Note 5.
So I reached out to Verizon and they did not have it for me to try, and as my time with the Tab S4 is coming to an end soon, Sadly I have to return it to them. but man is it a nice tablet
Been watching a few of your reviews to decide on tablets and these are basicly my top options right now... except I'd turn to the Tab S3 and not Tab S4. What do you think?
I don't mind the rotation or anything, but I do mind a little that I can't charge and have a headset in the M5 at the same time by standard. And I'm most likely going to get a keyboard with for writing, I don't plan on playing games on it. Perhaps a little art.
the S3 is still a very capable tablet with the right accessories you will have a very nice mobile entertainment and productivity device
Who watches videos vertically ? Lol Anyway good review, both tablets look great
Thanks! Videos like this REALLY help decide what to go for :) I think the price is THE biggest difference between the two and Samsung does not have much to offer to justify that difference. SO yeah I'll go with the Mediapad too.
a great choice
Great review! Thank you...The two I'm actually considering buying..Now for the decision?
Great review, thanks for sharing. Just bought the Mediapad M5 bundle with keyboard, pencil, LTE and SD card and it’s great for half price Samsung
May I ask if the M5 have an HDMI input?
But my question is. Is it possible to bring the on screen buttons back for home return and recent apps?
A lot of student will be useing it for notes taking... You need to make a video on notes taking on Microsoft notes app.. we will surely appreciate it more..
let me see If I can cover that in the review coming out soon
Were you using two different files for the benchmark or just one?
I tested both in the shop. If I have the money, i will take the samsung for sure.
Much better screen for samsung
Lol you must be nuts. Smaller screen and worse sound. And your gonna pay £200 more 😂
@@coaldust01 Yeah the MediaPad M5 is a much better deal!
@@coaldust01 S4 has better screen, better software and overall looks better in my opinion. Huawei desktop mode is definitely inferior, which is a big letdown.
Emmc vs ufs 2.1....most important feature! Do a HDD benchmark comparison pls!
What is the best budget tablet studies im only using it in note taking. Thx
May I ask if the M5 have an HDMI input?
thanks for the video
Hi, can we use usb c to ethernet cable with mediapad 10.8?will it work?
Nice!!
Thank you very much,cheer.
Thank you for the support
I guess it will boil down to what we intend to use the tablet for. If it is going to be a laptop replacement, I don't think either one would fit the purpose. I think the Microsoft surface Pro or surface go would be better. But for just viewing content and listening to audio, I like the tab s4 but given they are both using a 2017 processor, and given a new updated tablet would be around the corner, I would take huawei just for its sheer value for money and the bundled keyboard deals which it has now. Cheers!
Both is good, but i purchased Huawei M5 Pro, because ? 64GB memory and price is far diffrent, Huawei M5 Pro is much cheaper with almost the same spec
that is a good way to look at it
Do you think I should update my Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro or will it run slower after the update?
I have to add a comment about the Tab S4 S Pen ... that button can be very hard to find in the dark. I found the Tab S3 button far too easy to hit the button by mistake when writing with the S Pen, which doesn't happen anymore with the Tab S4. But I find myself wasting time trying to find the S Pen button when I need it, because it fits in so flush with the shape of the pen. I think that's why the metal fin sticks out, to find the button below it.
But what's the Pen sensitivity differences between the two?The Samsung is great for drawing apps but how good is the Media pad pen?
Please make video of huawei m5 10 vs Samsung s5e.
I'm confused with these two.
How much time you getting in huawei when watching movies only
Nice...& cool...info..
Thank you for the support
I just got the M5 for 299 Euros, which is basically half the price of the S4 - at that price differential, the M5 wins hands down. I would say the 2 biggest drawbacks of the M5 are the huge amount of uninstallable bloatware and the bizarre positioning of the buttons.
Like the reviewer, I always use my tablets in landscape and the Huawei logo is along the landscape bottom edge (which reinforces that landscape is the way to go) and yet the power, volume and particularly the home button/fingerprint sensor are all along the right-hand portrait edge - arrgh! Very surprised the video didn't mention this - it's also too easy to hit the home button with your right thumb accidentally because of the poor placement for landscape users. I'm not even fond of the USB C port being in the bottom right in landscspe either, but that's not as critical.
Game performance is very good with the M5 (latest firmware has a new GPU Turbo feature to improve things further) and the sound is probably the best I've ever heard coming out of a tablet's speakers. Overall, this is the best value 10” tablet in 2018, especially if you can get it at close to the price I paid via Amazon Italy (shipped to the UK where I am in only 4 days with no import duty/VAT).
Richard Lloyd have you had any issues with the Bluetooth and WiFi being used at the same time?
Fantastic review and I'm now set on the Huawei media T5
Thank you
Great choice
is it true that amoled will burn out after couple years? ips will be more safe to work?
Can mediapad pro support MS Excel?since sometime i need it to edit somethng for my docs.
yes the office suite is supported just like other tablets.
You have a great voice and speak fast but it is harder to follow because of the music in the background.
both just as good as each other😁
Tbh as long as i can play pubg full graphics and framerate and get 1080 im good
Very well .
It's the comparison I needed. I use my tablet mostly for note taking and content consumption. I sold my Tab S3, because 4:3 is the worst when it comes to note taking and watching movies, especially 21:9 one. Needles to say that the half of the display is useless in this case. For reading however it's better than 16:9.
Samsung has more software features for multi tasking and note taking than Huawei. Moreover it has some better specifications on paper (like Bluetooth 5, amoled display etc.) and SPen! I tried lot of different solutions but SPen is the best. Not to mention the missing headphone jack.
Considering all these and after watching this video I think I go for Tab S4.
Great choice
I'm sure there was an ASUS or something with AMOLED before too. It had a similar price even back then. Lenovo I don't remember what it's called though. Tab 3 Plus? I always forget which one it was. Asus ZenPad 3S 10 Z500M likely. No IPS on that one. Damnit I'm sure one ZenPad or whatever had AMOLED.
@ I used Zenpad 3S 10 shortly. The pen was horrible and the SOC couldn't stream 1080p so I ended up selling it. AFAIK it had LCD display. Even though the sound and display were good, it wasn't good enough to be a daily driver.
First thanks for the nice job
I'm going to buy mediapad m5 pro, and I want to ask you if you have any problems with WiFi when Bluetooth is on?
Best regards
Hello buddy i want to buy the media pad m5 but I’m still doing my research would you recommend it ??
anyone here plays Dragon Nest M with S4 or M5 pro? can it handle ultra settings of that game with no issues?
I like them both
i like the m5 pro better becoz i prefer landscape mode set up better! i like were the buttons are at. and the picture is awesome and totally adjustable not to mention way better looking than samsung! this is an honest review! from TK ...
Nice video. What's your thoughts on these units vs a detachable Chromebook?
diffrent use cases honestly. I like both but would rather use a tablet for media consumption and gaming.
@@TKBay Thanks for the feedback...
@@TKBay in your honest opinion which Android tablet would you recommend as I am a Note 9 user?
Great presentation.Thank you.
how long battery last on m5 pro?
perfect review thank you . love the sound on the Huawei and price its samsung totally and i thought it was going to be a big difference in screen amoled and led but Huawei looked as good as Samsung , I did think though Samsung looked redder on the white than the huawei did ........by the way did you have blue light on the samsung ??? must had because the white looks really bad
the tab looks a lot better in person. the lighting might have affect it
(M5) $320 vs $650 (S4). You can literally buy two M5s for the price of one S4. (With $10 left over!)
it's definitely a great deal for the price
Uhhh... Is more than $650 its $799 in amazon.. I told my mom to buy it she said yes. I was like really?! Yey!
Which one i can use as phone?
samsung tab s4 can make voice calls/ txt messages, can huawei m5 pro do the same?
Yes, the LTE version can I have one of them.
I just bought the Huawei tablet.... Loving it.... And it's cheap compared to Galaxy tabs.... And I don't use the pen, just left it in the box lol
Send me the pen if you want.
@@paulattree4171 threw it out after I got tablet
@@joek1978atyahoo lol
I am planning to get one and I think I will get the tab s4 I love samsung dex and now I don't have to buy the station also I will use it to watch videos and Netflix also the display is great and for the game I dont play pubg or fortnite most of my games card game so it will be great for me plus the S pen I like it a lot more price than the media pad but it's better.
Can I ask you if I can touch the screen while I'm using the pen in huawei or not ? I mean my skin will affect when we use the pen ? .. I hope that you get my question. 😂💔
Ben of huwaei are amazing wow look like note 9
I happened to stumble across your comparison of the Mediapad M5 and Tab S4. I'm looking for a good tablet with good sound and screen quality that I can use to read my ebooks and watch videos on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime. The Mediapad M5 looks like a solid option. I wanted to get your thoughts between the two. I don't need the pen, just a good solid tablet with some nice features.
The media pad should be great for what you need. Good price and great display and sound for media and long battery
a bit too simple review for my taste. this is what i miss:
1. no information about pen pressure
2. no information about connection to TV/hdmi and simultaneous charging
3. no comparison of updates and support
4. no information about communication protocols and payment methods
5. price comparison
Hope u got ur answers
The media pad I feel is better. It's allot cheaper to.
great bang for the buck
Hello Sir.. A Huge Fan!
I wanted to buy this tablet available in US for use in India from the Black Friday sale.. Will the Bluetooth and WiFi connection and settings on it, work when I use it in India?
If you can brief me about the SIM usage as well?
Thanks
So the tablet will work perfectly in India as well as it would here. These models here don't have a sim. The model on sale on black Friday is the standard model no sim support
@@TKBay Ok thanks sir..So I'll buy from this week's sale knowing now that the wifi n Bluetooth will work in India for US tablets as well!
I mainly want a tablet for browsing, seeing videos and reading PDFs.. So hopefully, this fulfils the purpose.. :)
Also sir.. Is there any issue with simultaneous usage of wifi n Bluetooth in Huawei tablet? As in when switching them both on, one of them doesn't work?
Both work for me although some have reported issue with it. I did not see that as an issue.
I bought S4, because I recently upgraded from S1 to new S4. I've been waiting for this upgrade very long time. However, I still sense Samsung doesn't pay too much attention on new model S4, perhaps I used to buy Samsung phones. So, after comparison btw Samsung tablet n Samsung phones. The ideas just pop up from my head, Samsung just made this S4 because Samsung doesn't want to give up this tablet market. That's it.
The mediapad m5 looks like the design from last generation. If Huawei can move fingerprint scan to the back of m5, it'll be better to hold it by your hands. Since m5 is much cheaper than S4. However, the performance of m5 is still worth enough for the price, if you don't want to pay too much money on just one tablet and you don't seek very high quality of design. M5 is still fine to you. I suppose.
great upgrade, and I hope they do update it in 2019 , still great for the price
When it comes to tablets, the three most important things would be screen quality, weight and battery life, that being said, IPad is king of all three. If you prefer android devices than Samsung is king of all three.
I liked the video, thank you, I'm from Iraq
🌷🌷
Ahlan. Thank you
Allah akbar.
I'm neutral on the video. I'm from Sweden ;D
... so I guess we both live with the same people ;/
@ Rip Swedemenistan
good job
Thank you for the support
Hiii TK Bay
Really thank you man it is nice video.
TK bay i have doubts abt this product
1) does the mediapad support display out, if so which whic adaptor is suitable for it to connect it to external display and it should also charge the tab
2) i know that the s4 support display out but can u suggest me a adaptor that should also charge the tab faster and it should also help is connecting to external display
Thank you very much
both are good 👍👍👍👍
great tablet yes for sure
galaxy tab s4 with 256gb lte model got 6gb of flash memory RAM
Great review, thanks. But, you didn't mentioned about calling features..
thank you, so the US versions of these tablets do not support calling only the EU variant do. that is why i did not mention it in the video.
@@TKBay why is there no call support here in the U.S.?
Which one is good for studing???
Im confused
Answer plzzzz
both will do a great job for r school work and watching lectures. the mediapad has a bigger battery and should last you longer
The big issue with the Mediapad M5 in europe is that although priced more competivably (got mine for 310 euros new) most countries are stuck with the 32GB of storage version. It's a shame because there's nothing more to fault about it. This was probably to push people to the more expensive pro version. Beware that, you can't install apps on the sdcard, only part of their data, and you can't activate adoptable storage (that would unify sdcard storage and internal storage as one). So you are basically stuck and having to constantly moving your media and downloads from internal to sdcard if you have a few apps and want to keep internal storage available.
interesting because for us in the US we get the 64GB for the Pro and the regular M5
Where did you buy for 310?
really? wouwww... thx 4 d info, your info save me from falling to buy the M5, TQ
Amoled is by far superior to Ips Lcd and the ppi is higher on the Tab S4 you didn't mention that, Samsung prides the Amoled Display panel and its pixel count and colors and contrast major feature of The Tab S line that sets it above the rest.
Amoled s4 or ips m5 pro? Which display is better?
Amoled is way better and way more expensive.
Can you use bluetooth headphones for M5?
Yes it supports BT
Just ordered M5 pro during early black Friday sale for $400, hopefully it can last 4 years.
that is an awesome price, good catch and it will be great
@@TKBay thanks for the recommendation.
Does it have any issues using wifi and Bluetooth at the same time?.. As in, one of them doesn't work?
@@aspirant3115 are you from the Amazon review? I asked the same around the internet. No response, but I bought one anyway. I'll be getting it on December 5, so only one way to find out
Congrats
Anyone else sick of hitting the power button on the mediapad yet??? Or when trying hit the space bar while typing accidentally hitting one of the bottom 3 buttons???? Outside of that stuff it's amazing!
give me a new SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 12.2... mine current one is 5 years old
this is not mine , I gave it back after the video
@@TKBay which do you personally own?
Duude chill
I have the original Samsung Note Pro. After 4 years it's almost embarrassing slow and laggy. I am moving in from Samsung to Huawei. Wished it was bigger. I liked the 12 screen on the Note Pro and will miss it.
Which would you recommend the Samsung Tab S4 or The Huawei Mediapad?
My current phone is a Note 9?
for the price the mediapad, but if that is not an issue the tab s4
@@TKBay Thanks for the feedback.
nice
With one is better Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 or Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro i have test the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 it have good software but it feel chep and i try the Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro and it feel good and better but the software was not good like Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 and the price on Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 is to high and Huawei MediaPad M5 is cheper so in dont know with one to buy with is better to buy
Hardware Wise the tab s4 is better, but the media pad is better priced for the features
@@TKBay I got the tab s4 with official keyboard cover for 500 euro or just the mediapad m5 for 340 what do you think? I'm leaning towards the first..
You said the galaxy tab s4 feels cheap. It's made of glass front and back. So shows how much you know.
The MediaPad M5, once rooted, is an absolute monster for the price!
It depends on how you'll use item.People are saying the Samsung has the better pen but if you're like me and the pen is not important then go with the Medi pad non pro and really save some money.
Hi TK,
I have the M5 and it's great, however my issue is with the screen when watching movies at night in bed. I find the screen bleed is very distracting compared to to OLED screen in my OnePlus 5t. Does the S4 work well in no light situations for media, if you could make a video comparing would be great👍
thanks man, the screen is better in low light environments for sure. not sure if you have a bad display unit, but it should not be that bad at night .
I'm glad you mentioned that. I'm debating between these two and 75% of my tablet viewing experience happens in the dark, in my bed. If the Huawei has light bleed I won't be able to unsee that. Thank you for helping me make a decision.
Another reason why AMOLED is the best. I'm on my OnePlus 6T all day so the LCD panel just won't cut it.
Yeah my mediapad has disgusting backlight. My tab s2 has a much better screen I will sell this garbage
@@TheChocohunter I sold mine last week, with all the high praise this tablet got, no one used it in the dark? Bought the tab S4 and it's great
Tab s4 is much more expensive than the mediapad because it has a better quality and more features.
no dough and people will get it for the features it does better, but not everyone will want that and this is why the M5 is a good option for them
Trying to make a decision. Btw I see a great difference between those two tablets. You can connect easly a Samsung S4 to a tv, while with M5 pro you can't. Am I wrong? Another point. It's hard to find the original Huawei book cover for M5. The book cover for S4 it's too expensive on the other hand. So the question is just one: why I need a tablet. In my case it's just watching udemy in the metro :) So maybe I'll leave those tablets in order to start watching something less expensive like an M3, M5 lite... Samsung S3
the M5 lite is great option honestly ,I got a chance to see it and I like the functionality to price point. but the pro and the Tab S4 are just better equipped for gaming and multitasking better.
@@TKBay Thanks for your reply. And what about the M5 "not pro", 10.8... ? In my country amazon sell it at 298 euros... it's not pro, so there's no pen which is not so important to me.
That one would be even better cheaper and same specs as the pro
How can i purchase Huawei tab in India
I use Google sheets on these devices?
all google apps are supported here
And I with my Huawei Mediapad T3 7 :'v
The Mediapad M5 has much better screen and sound...and cheaper price. I'm glad I own it.
I totally agree with you
@@npdavidge It's a good idea to protect your device. I got my case from Amazon 10GBP. I haven't bothered with a screen protector yet. Lots of options at Ebay too.
@@VernalScott def got a case coming found nice one also £10 with nice protection corners and also ordered screen protection but unsure if need . Many thanks n
You have great taste. Enjoy!
The screen of the Mediapad is much brighter. But not much better. Samsung got the superior Amoled display.
what are your thoughts on Google ending android tablet support, therefore the Tab S4 most likely not going to get any OS updates past Oreo? Is that a deal breaker? Should that be a deal breaker?
For what we use tablets for I would say it definitely made the lifespan shorter, but I would not be surprised if Samsung puts tizen on it and. Moves forward. You know.
Google is not ending tablet support! They have stopped supporting THEIR Pixel tablet because they cant make money with it. Android updates will continue to be released. It's up to Samsung and Huawei to support them. Samsung has committed to supporting their S line for 3-4 years. Not sure about Huawei.

Why does Samsung realise a $649 tablet in 2018 with a 1.5 year old Snapdragon 835? It already lags behind A10x let alone A12X. They seem to not really take their tablets seriously.
Do review on tab s4 pie update
