Huawei MediaPad M2 showcased in promo video as the "first unibody 4G LTE tablet"

Last month, Huawei quietly unveiled a new tablet called MediaPad M2, a 7.8mm-thin slate that comes to succeed the MediaPad M1 from 2014. While the M1 is a rather modest device, the M2 offers pretty attractive features, some of which are now showcased in an official promo video.

Presented by Huawei as "the world's first unibody 4G LTE tablet", the MediaPad M2 runs Android 5.1 Lollipop, and sports an 8-inch IPS display with 1200 x 1920 pixels. The device is powered by Huawei's own 64-bit octa-core Kirin930 processor (clocked at 2.0 GHz), has an 8 MP camera on the back, and a 2 MP camera on the front. The MediaPad M2 also delivers superior sound thanks to Harman/Kardon's Clari-Fi technology, a HiFi Codec Hi6402 (developed by Hauwei), and stereo speakers with "Super Wide Sound."

The M2 has two versions: a regular one that comes with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory, and a premium one with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage space. Both support microSD cards, and have 4800 mAh batteries inside.

Huawei was supposed to launch the MediaPad M2 last month (first in France). However, right now the tablet doesn't seem to be available to purchase anywhere in the world, and there's no word on its price.
