It has been long rumoured (and leaked) that Huawei would launch the Mediapad X1 tablet at MWC, well Chinese E-commerce site seems to have ignored the memos and launced the tablet ahead of schedule.

The launch of the Huawei Mediapad X1 is hardly a surprise, and neither are many of the specification details, but at least we finally know the official hardware of this new 7-inch device Huawei have been planning for such a long time. The official launch details, found on Tmall the sister site of Taobao, state the Huawei Mediapad X1 has a 7-inch 1920 x 1080 display, weight 239g and measures just 7.18mm thick. Huawei are boasting a 2.99mm bezel on the X1 and an industry leading body to screen ratio which sees 80% of the front of the Mediapad X1 taken up by the display.

    phones are getting scary-good… but if I want a large tablet-sized phone (say > 14cm), I’m thinking I want to hold out for full HD audio with multiple microphones because I don’t want to hold the thing to my head to talk.
