great write up. i have been using the 10" kindle fire hd but the screen now has a crack across it. my replacement choices were the huawei mediapad m3 as reviewed, samsung s2 and ipad 2018. i went to a local currys to look at them 1st hand. my biggest surprise was the new ipad 128gb model. I couldn't believe how washed out the colours were for an item costing over £400. the samsung display looked fantastic but i was surprised that it was still using an older version of android. the sales assistant in currys didnt think it would be upgraded anything soon, if at all. unfortunately they didnt have the huawei. i explained that i wouldnt be playing graphic intensive games and wanted a pad with a good display and with decent sound. he seemed to think the huawei would be the best all rounder. quick trip round to argos and one huawei later i returned home. on turning up the display blew the ipad away and was a vey close runner to the samsung. i loaded amazon music and went straight for pink floyds dark side of the moon and time. omg, the instant the clock chimes sounded i was amazed. the sound filled a large bedroom and then some. the detail of the ticking clocks was amazing. i then viewed some graphic novels. "from hell" has always been a difficult book to read due to its black and white pictures and subject detail. i found it very detailed with very sharp pictures and text. quick look at the game "broken sword the smoking mirror" was also very pleasing with great colours and contrast. if you dont need a tablet to play graphics intensive games i cannot recommend the M3 lite enough. its also in argos at £229 so a bit of a bargin
