Hardware recommendations

Submitted 5 years, 5 months ago by

Hey folks, I finally decided to get myself a tablet for Hearthstone and Skype sessions. After reading several tests I narrowed the search down to the following two:

Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite 

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019)

While the Huawei has 3 GB Ram and the Samsung only 2 GB, the tests say that the Samsung’s processor is better. All the other specs are roughly the same or close enough that I don’t care. The price is identical for the two of them.

Could any of you tell me if Ram or processor power is more important for playing Hearthstone and / or report from their own experience how content they are with either of the tablets? That would be really great :)

Maybe we could use this thread for future hardware recommendations, so people who seek advice don’t have to start a separate one every time a similar question arises.

    I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

    I'd get neither, that's such a low amount of ram, hearthstone likes to have at least 4-5gb to run optimally in my experience

    Kazakus

    My faves!

    You can beat me but I will still yeet your skeet

    2 GB of Ram is enough for mobile so check if the proccessor is higher than 1.5Ghz. Also check that Android version must be more than 5.0

    Thanks for your replies! Both have more than 1,5 GHz. Huawei comes with Android 8.something, Samsung with 9.0. I think I will check out which one gives me a better feeling and let my gut decide. Both of them will do their job

    I dont have both of these, because I personally use apple tab, well I bought my tab from Black Friday deal and I saw both of your tabs, my friend uses Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 and we both were both from there, he said its tab is also working well, I suggest you go there, and choose according to your need, because you better know about what things you want in your tab, I hope you will choose a best one, Good Luck.
