The Huawei Honor Tab 5 is a new entry-level tablet that was announced by the brand recently. In this post, you will get to see all the information you need to know about the new Honor Tab 5, such as its key features, full specification, and price.
Huawei Honor Tab 5 Key Features
The Huawei Honor Tab 5 has an 8-inch display with Full HD resolution (1200 x 1920 pixel) and runs on a Kirin 710 CPU. Looking at the tablet, you will agree that it is a beauty to behold, and it consists of a metal rear cover with plastic bumpers. This design pattern typically reminds us of the Huawei Honor 6X.

Above the display of the Honor Tab 5 you will find a front-facing shooter which is an 8MP fixed-focus camera. At the rear, you will find an 8MP main camera with autofocus. The sad part is that this tablet does now have an OLED flash, so this will be a limitation for night photographers. The tablet has dual speakers which are optimally placed at the top and bottom of the screen, which is perfect for watching videos.
