Same Its Support Multi International Languages. So its not much of a worrie for most of the people.

Lets Turn & and compare with Huawei Honor 3X . hehe
Same Both Supports Emotion UI 2.0, Replace Traditional Google Interface of Putting Apps,Apps will be install and show on the Front without accepting to the Menu button. You can build your folder outside also.

Mediapad X1 have a on Screen, Back , Home and Menu Button which its quite sad but wait ...... theres a small arrow beside , once i press it this prompt up. Yeah we can hide the keys on any program or any page .
NOW YOU SEE IT!

NOW YOU DONT ! Hehehe

Picture Of The Locked Screen ! You can also double tap on the screen to bring up from Sleep Mode, something like knock knock on the screen. ( sound familar ? )

Drop down menu from the main screen allows you to access shortcuts. Adjust Brightness, etc......, setup your own shortcut list from the Settings Notification Setup.

Inside The Settings Menu On Media X1,theres example : wifi settings , device settings,...etc but some are not seen in other Honor 3C & 3X Phones Like Suspend Button , Hover Gesture and also Accelerator.
Hmm. theres no One Hand UI compare to the honor 3c & 3x.
Maybe its too big for one hand Ui, or maybe there will be a update
to it. We have to wait and see.

Lets Look Into Accelerator under Network Settings,
there two menu ,
1- Reduce the percentage of downloaded pictures into a decreas image to appear , this way it will load faster and reduce MB used.
2- Remove the advertisement on pages to appear also reduce MB used quite good.

Internal Rom of Honor Mediapad X1 its 16GB, its quite enough for daily usage with a expandable Memory card slot available which can support upto 32GB as report in their website but will try a 64GB soon when i get one.
*Tested With 64GB Memory Card by some of the people working..

2GB of Ram minus starting of OS & Apps remaining of around 1.3G , its quite enough and at least smoothy the system & apps compare to a 1GB Ram devices.

Internet Browser & Surfing
Browser are using Original Android Version , but you can aso install via google palystore for Chrome Browser.
Most Of The Function & Interface of the browser are almost similar to each other. so as for all its quite familiar with all of us now.
I try installing the flash player through apk. and it manage to work also through it .
I like the Original Android Browser as compare to Chrome Browser, Chrome will be slightly smoother than Original Browser but it uses less resource and ram.
All the zooming, enlarge ,multi tabs etc....... ae available

Speedtest result for the 3G models are still not bad .

Battery:
By optimizing the design of the MediaPad X1, we were able to fit a much larger 5000 mAh battery inside, at least 20% bigger than batteries used in other pocket-sized tablets. The result is many more hours to enjoy your MediaPad X1 without having to worry about finding the charger.

Camera & Video Function Of Media X1

Main Rear Camera of 13MP Camera, fix with Wide angle & large F2.2 diaphragm, 5 lens assembly with Hybrid IR flash.
Good in Night Shot As its capture more light and make the picture brighter.

Secondary Front Camera Of 5MP for Selfie & Beauty Function. Its one of the good selfshot Camera in the market on the front without turning to the back. Ladies Will Love It

In Camera Mode, Camera function icon its located on the left side of the screen.
Camera Resolution its group in 4:3 & 16:9 with highest at 5160x3120 and 4160x2368

Video Camera also enabled with Stablize Function & Also Beauty Mode..

Camera Testing On Media X1 , Dont mine as im not a super Expert On Camera shooting. hehe
Maybe its due to i rarely use a big screen size device , when i take a
picture sometime its abit shaking

More Review to Come !

Basis Conclusion Up Till Now:
(All based On Own Usage And Report)

Good
1- I personally feel that the Emotion UI are good for Most User. Quite Straight Forward. Apps installed are all outside rather than into another menu..
2- Battery life of Mediapad X1 after use by me personally with 3G on always. And to my surprise its good long battery for a big screen like this. Together with the battery saving mode its really helps in alot.
I Full charged and i have already used 1day 20hrs with 65% battery left .So for people worried about battery life and carrying a powerbank . this model will solve your problem.
3- The Rear Camera of 13MP Wide Screen its good as you can have a bigger capture areas as compare to other models. Tested in a Dinning Room with 16 tables , we able to capture everyone in the picture.As for the Front Selfie Camera , we also able to capture huge group of peoples like 8-9 in a single picture.
4- 80% Screen To Phone Body Actually Its Good As it looks slim & light .

Bad
1- Its Without Any One Hand UI, make it abit hard to handle with one hand but for this big screen i think maybe its not neccessory.
2- Max support memory card it upto 32GB , yet to find another lower speed 64GB to test.
3- The double tap screen unlock function its not that good as something its accidently unlocks it without notice and i cannot find any settings to it, but maybe its a test firmware and will solve later on a newer firmware.
