Huawei MediaPad 10 Link tablet Now Available from Three

Only a few months ago I was sat complaining about how many android tablets there were on the market, to a point that it almost felt like it was saturated then in a strange turn of events, the Android tablet market has begun to slow down with only the major players releasing high-end tablets.

One of the slowest markets for tablets just now is the 10 inch and above market, in which very few OEM’s choose take a device to market.

The  Huawei MediaPad 10 Link tablet is one of those devices and though Huawei are not considered a top 3 or even 5 brand when it comes to tablets they have certainly packed a lot of decent specs into to their tablet.

With a 1.5 GHz Quad-core processor and a 6600 mAh battery the only thing that really let’s the device down is the 1280 x 800 resolution.

We received an email earlier today to advise that the device will be carried on the Three network for  £29.99 upfront and £19.99 per month if you enter into a 24 month contract for 5GB of data. Or you can buy it for £229 with a rolling one month data plan of either 1GB or 10GB at £7.50 and £15 respectively. Plus you can always buy add-ons such as All-You-Can-Eat data if you need a top-up.
