How Good Is The HONOR MagicPad 2? | In-Depth Review Of The AMOLED Tablet

[@typicaltechlad]

Apologies: I state in the video USB-C 3.2 when in fact it is USB 2.0. My bad everyone ✌️

[@everstar8056]

I received mine yesterday. Just amazing. Don't know how honor does it. Amazing display, design and speakers are another level. They are very loud and create surround sound.

[@sephiroth4543]

The screen is better than the IPad M4 and Tab S9 screens and I had both of those tablets. The software is really good too.

By far the best review I've seen of the tablet bro, love how detailed it is.

[@typicaltechlad]

Thanks bro, I try to provide the most in-depth coverage of all devices I review, glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@zeuronplana8541]

500 bucks is way better value for what it offers

I have just seen the screen and it's far better than the one on my Samsung Tab S9 and it's better than my old IPad Pro M4 screen. Sublime tablet.

Agree with other people superb review gone in to detail and settings no one else has..not that I have seen so far. I got this coming tomorrow. Got from amazon. No case, no pen and i dont think i am getting the 66w charger either. P.S i am in the uk..so bought mines from amazon uk.

Hey, thank you! Hopefully at some point they do release it in your country, very frustrating having to wait when you want it. Thanks for the kind words, I do try my best to give viewers the most honest review on all devices I test 👍

@@typicaltechladi live in Ireland and even here we can't make an order on the official Honor website. I have to go through Amazon UK bjt that does not contain the keyboard and the pen, ffs... Luckily those don't matter too much for me so I will have to swallow the loss of them... :/

[@onkeltom2436]

Would be nice to know if you tried to flip the keyboard to the backside of the Tablet to hold it in Bookmode. And when you do so, does the Keys still work or are they deactivated for misstypes?

[@typicaltechlad]

Hi, I have tried and yes when you flip it to the back the keys are deactivated, will keep this in my mind to demonstrate on camera when I do a review with a keyboard next time, thank you!

[@typicaltechlad]

Hi, glad you enjoyed. The keyboard does charge with the tablet when you have it connected 👍

[@mobilegames390]

Want to get this for my daughter for Christmas as there is a deal on at moment. As you are in UK can you tell me if this comes with Google apps and play store etc as some honor and Huawei products need you to sideload it on to the tablets or phones.

[@typicaltechlad]

Hi, yes it does come with Google services so Google play store is available out the box. That will be a very nice gift! Enjoy 👍

You done a Stirling job in watching the full video 😂. He literally showed in the video the information you're looking for @ 4:42

[@doppelganger72]

@@Steve30x I'm new to Netflix. So at 4:42 it says widevine 1.1, max resolution full hd. So it's only 1080p, no chance to play at 4k, right? It's a shame for a 1920 x 3000 screen.

@@typicaltechlad To find the desktop mode, you can drag down the control centre menu ->edit shortcut switch->Then drag the shortcut for 'desktop mode' to the switch panel. You can then access the desktop mode from your switch panel from now on. This function is hidden and I think most users are unaware of this.

[@typicaltechlad]

Thank you, I followed those steps, but still there is no option for desktop mode, there were other options such as ‘hearing aid’, ‘bedtime mode’, ‘calculator’ and others but no ‘desktop mode’. So not sure if this is limited to certain regions as @Unan1mouz mentioned?

[@francischiew7080]

there is 3 issues I don't liked about chinese made tablet is lack of sim support (cellular connectivity) resulting in always having to look for wifi , most of them don't come with amoled screen, a limited market availability with china getting a full launch but the rest of world having sporadic availability & worse sometimes it's only availability after a year or so and this where samsung excelled tip specs with sim support available everywhere as long you have money to buy you can get it. I get the feeling that chinese smartphone manufacturers making tablet don't really care about the overseas market probably couldn't compete with apple and samsung that is why they behave this way. overall in all some of this manufacturers may have below $300 tablet with great value but if you look at it closely the actual is not there , furthermore some of this tablet are price between $700 -$850 at this price point I rather go for a full specs galaxy tablet. example is honor magic pad 2 is selling at $899 singapore dollar while the tab s9 plus I can get for less than $1200 ( full specs plus longer software support too)

[@Steve30x]

This tablet has an oled screen and if it's anything like my honor pad 9 and it's a whole ten leagues ahead of the Samsung tablet I bought for the same price with a much better screen ,it runs circles around the tablet with how fast it does things , the speakers are way better with my honor pad 9 than the Samsung tablet with 4 speakers and the screen is much clearer and brighter than the Samsung tablet. My honor pad 9 is a whole lot better in every aspect than the Samsung tablet I got for the same price. You can bash the company all day long but my experience with the honor pad is far better than the three Samsung tablets I own

OnePlus pad 2, although I haven’t used it myself is really good from what I’ve heard, nova has the has the same power but with the added cooling fan and focus on gaming and the MagicPad 2 is an overall very good tablet with an excellent display. So depends on what you’re looking for I guess. I would pick the MagicPad 2 for my use cases
