First, let’s look at the Huawei M6. If you didn’t show me the front, I would really think my iPad Pro was here.The power, volume, and home button are on the same side. When you pick up the tablet vertically, if you apply a little force, you might accidentally touch the buttons, causing the screen to turn off. This makes me occasionally see a handsome face on the screen.
If you place the prestigious HUAWEI logo at the top, the volume buttons do not flip with your screen, in short, you need to adapt to Huawei’s button layout.Seeing the prestigious logo, Huawei’s idea is that everyone should try to use it in landscape mode, but what do you think about the landscape app ecosystem on Huawei’s Android? QQHD is still from 2018, and the music apps do not support landscape.Parallel world!What? Parallel world?The gimmick named by domestic and foreign big companies, everyone knows the actual experience, it’s just garbage!However, this time……. Oh my god, it’s really nice!Open Weibo, scroll through hot searches, and check out celebrity gossip~Open Taobao, browse, collect, exit, satisfied~It has indeed become much more convenient, and the parallel world enriches the content of the windows, no more switching between landscape and portrait.Netease Cloud Music, huh?Bilibili, huh?It seems that many commonly used apps are still not adapted…Real nice failure.
Now let’s talk about the M6’s screen2K full lamination screen!wow~rubbishThis screen is green?These dense grids?The screen almost made me give up directlyBut for 2299 yuan, I can bear it!Now let’s take a look at the iPad.2019 iPad mini, also priced over 2000, not the cheapest iPad. Look, this guy is cheaper, but it doesn’t have the A12 chip, but looking at the configuration, this is just a smaller version of the iPad Air.Holding it in my hand, to be honest, the first feeling is that it’s not much bigger than a phone, lightweight is not a problem, but I seriously suspect that this guy is just the leftover shell of the iPad mini 4, reassembled and upgraded to sell again. In the era of full screens, this gives the impression of a product from the last century. To be honest, the recessed feeling of this screen also makes me a bit uncomfortable, and no matter whether you turn on the True Tone display or not, this screen is all kinds of purple. Is it just my unit?However, this is the best configuration you can buy, the most cost-effective iPad. As for those problems, just bear with it.
For students using tablets, a keyboard and pen are essentialThe official keyboard case for Huawei M6 is 599 yuan,I have to say that Huawei’s keyboard cover feels really nice,The typing feel of the keyboard is also quite good, and typing efficiency increases significantly.When you attach the keyboard cover, the system prompts to enter computer mode, click confirmA new world opens up.With the keyboard placed on the table, this skin can be quite convincing.How about the content under this beautiful skin?In computer mode, you don’t have to worry about portrait software not being adapted; all software opens in independent portrait windows. Coupled with the 10.8-inch screen size, it looks just right, not too small. What are the benefits of doing this?In class,The teacher is passionately lecturing at the podium,Students are frantically taking notes at their desks.Only you, calm and unhurriedOpen the PPT provided by the teacher,Then open Youdao Cloud, elegantly tapping the keyboard (Wealth Management—How to Raise Pigs Scientifically?).
When you need multiple software to appear on the same screen to study, such as opening a study website, opening a notebook to highlight key points, and then opening a search website to look for extra knowledge, this efficiency, at least a phone cannot compare.The combination of different windows can also make your learning methods varied.However, don’t be greedy; the desktop space is limited. Due to the 4GB RAM, a maximum of 5 programs can run simultaneously.Since Apple is stingy and doesn’t provide a smart keyboard for the iPad mini, if you are a typing enthusiast, you will need a Bluetooth keyboard. It’s possible, but I really don’t recommend typing on the iPad mini, it’s too small, it really looks uncomfortable. You can’t possibly type in this position, right? The tablet position is also very low, causing neck discomfort, and you also need to find a place to elevate it. Moreover, carrying a Bluetooth keyboard is also not pleasant, and this keyboard is larger than the iPad mini. Oh right, don’t buy a small keyboard; rather than typing in such a constrained way, you might as well go back to using a computer. So, unless there are special circumstances, don’t use the iPad mini to write papers.
One of the most needed things in school life is a notebook; some majors require recording a lot of information. The iPad mini, although not large, is indeed the size that resembles a paper notebook the most, I’m just talking about size. Coupled with the Apple Pencil, well, you can only use the first generation, and you can happily take notes. The writing feel, large range of writing, feels like an eraser sliding on another rubber surface, uncomfortable, but the small area writing is much better.
What? Of course, you can’t use the built-in notes app, although the handwriting capability has been enhanced in the built-in notes app, but you see, I can’t even draw on the text, the freedom is too low, this doesn’t count as a qualified notebook.GoodNotes is a relatively specialized handwriting note-taking app, we have recommended it before. You can create many notebooks, similar to buying many small notebooks. Whether it’s taking notes, simple drawings, or even writing scores, it’s quite good. Its most unique feature is that when writing, you can enable the zoom function, after all, it’s hard to write small letters on an electronic screen, and it’s even harder to write beautifully, so by enlarging each line, you can write easily. Want to insert images? iOS’s split screen can easily solve the image adding issue, just drag it out.M6, combined with Huawei’s M-pen lite, open NeboCreate a new notebook, choose the Chinese language.Start your text recording!Writing is very smooth, except that it’s a bit slippery compared to paper..But with a keyboard, I don’t feel that handwriting notes is more efficientThe pen is more for making annotations on existing text.Using Nebo to annotate has become easier~However, this pen can only do this muchMoreover, this pen does not have a magnetic suction function, and the case does not leave space for it.Rather than carrying it around and dropping it, it’s better not to buy it from the start…Oh~ by the way, even if you want to buy itBe prepared to pay extra~
Now another problem arises: how to quickly save the notes you made or share them with classmates. The iPad mini, if your phone is also iOS, can directly view the notes made on the iPad through iCloud. How about putting it on the computer?Export as PDF, Mac is convenient, just air drop it, but for PC, we also need to use wireless, Baidu Cloud and OneDrive are both good solutions, but these functions require your iPad to be connected to the internet. If you finish your notes in class and want to upload them immediately, and there’s no WiFi in the classroom, you can only use your phone’s hotspot, which is troublesome unless you upgrade to the SIM card version. After finishing, when you return to the dormitory, you can check the notes you just made. However, GoodNotes doesn’t have a desktop version; you can only transfer it to your computer in PDF or image format. If you use Microsoft’s OneNote, you can seamlessly connect on every device’s OneDrive, so you can modify it, but taking notes with OneNote is indeed not as good as GoodNotes, so it depends on personal preference.Another issue is that, even today, OneDrive’s usage speed in China is unstable, and the premium version is expensive, so when using the iPad for multi-device synchronization, you will encounter some difficulties.
Don’t worry about Android; PC connection import and export, Mac, Handshaker, etc., does the PC also want to use wireless? Huawei’s built-in HUAWEI share, although it’s only for 10 minutes each time, is enough for light usage.Of course, our school has many majors; if you are a photography major or studying photography, submitting assignments? The teacher will definitely want your PS files. But usually, you don’t need to be that rigorous; just take photos with a camera, and when you have time, you can edit them.The iPad requires a Lightning SD card reader to import photos from your phone into the iPad’s photo album, and the iPad mini is definitely larger than a phone, making photo editing much easier. Fine adjustments are still left to the computer, adjusting colors, making transformations, etc., the iPad can handle it.
The M6 and iPad mini can both use a pen for photo editing in certain apps, and the iPad has a clear advantage because, with the M6’s latency, I might as well use my finger.In photo editing, these two tablets are completely different; the iPad is purple, and the M6 is green, there’s nothing more to say, both are inaccurate.Do you need artistic painting for your profession? Forget about buying this tablet.Honestly, buying a Wacom is the right path for you.As for the iPad mini, don’t even consider it. Are you sure you want to create art and design on such a small screen?
Well~ today’s study task is completedLock the screen and take a breakBut…Have you noticed? Because of the face recognition, after locking the screen, it immediately unlocks again, even if the person has left the screen, it won’t lock, dangerous!Lu Xun once said: Combining work and rest can double the efficiency.Occasional entertainment and relaxation are also necessary~Listening to music?I still prefer iQIYI!How about it? The Harman Kardon four speakers are quite good, right?With this sound quality, I can also compete with the iPad Pro.The iPad mini does not have dual speakers, and watching videos is quite uncomfortable; sometimes I wonder how we endured watching TV on the old iPad before. Forget it, where are my headphones? Plugging them in, on the road, in bed, is the best use of the iPad for watching videos.Want to play some games?Let’s play the hottest game, Asphalt 9All effects turned onThe game comes with keyboard controls, so refreshing!This graphics, this effect, is amazingHey, hey, hey, it lagged?It’s strange that other games have no issues.But it’s okay, fitness and entertainment are not conflicting (beep…)
In gaming, playing games on all Apple mobile devices is indeed the most enjoyable on the iPad mini. Of course, not every game has adapted to the iPad’s screen ratio; don’t mind those details because… look, this screen is bigger than the iPhone, and it’s lighter, especially when playing racing games, that’s exhilarating! Lag? Nonexistent, heat? Just bear with it.
Is it worth buying?School has started, and you definitely need to buy a computer first; a tablet is not a necessity, but it’s a device that enriches your lifestyle and entertainment.The M6 is comprehensive; you can even use cloud computers, and the possibility of using it away from a computer is very high. Although it has many bugs, it can achieve small-scale office work, learning assistance, and entertainment.The iPad mini can do many things; in terms of learning assistance, it is indeed not as good as the M6, but its entertainment capability is super strong, even the best entertainment tablet, no doubt. It’s just a pity that it’s still that iPad mini from several years ago, with no surprises.
