MediaPad M3 is my first huawei tablet, and I'm experiencing some bad behaviours with the touch screen. I have a Nexus 6p (created by huawei as well) and the touchscreen is fantastic, I never feel any lag or bad behaviour with this screen. But in the m3 I've noticed that randomly the screen is not responding accurately.
Is there any calibration or configuration that I've missed? Is it a manufacturing defect?
Thanks in advance
Does it make a difference if you are using the tablet in landscape or portrait mode? It seems to me that portrait mode is more responsive.
For me, both modes are a little no-responsive. Are you experiencing this from the begining?
Since I have reduced the resolution to 1920X1200, the sensitivity is significantly better. Perhaps the tablet with the 2K resolution is easily overstrained.
Hi, can any of you make a short video showing the sensitivity issue perhaps compared to a phone? I'm thinking about purchasing this tablet but touch screen sensitivity if it's not smooth it's a major annoyance for me... Thank you!
Make sure it's not a pressure issue. I've had this on my tablets if I squeeze too hard on one side (for example if I hold with one hand and navigate with the other).

Im totally agree with u, but how do u change the resolution?
Because while playing game with fast paced flashing light stuff like disney tsum tsum this tablet running slow. Hopefully change resolution or dpi will help.
First time i feel there's touch issue since the latest update 286mb though
Another thing i hate is when flipboard apps detect this tablet as a phone.
Hopefully emui 5.0 will coming soon to fix this.

Also I would suggest changing the tablet from the default battery saving mode to the performance mode. From the same menu shown above click on the top option.
Yeah u are right elsa, now its buttery smooth n snappy.
Thanks for the tip
Yes, the screen is definitely laggy and misses touches even on the performance mode. Here are two of my videos comparing the M3 to the Nexus 9. Could this be a software/driver issue and a future update is a remedy? Thinking of returning the device cause in the long run this will become even more frustrating than the general slowness of the Nexus 9 (it's ok once it gets going).

Hello guys,
I also have multiple touchscreen problems with mine (bought one month ago, EU).
Sometimes a zone of the screen simply stop responding to touches (located near the bottom right of the screen), i have to reboot the tablet and everything is back to normal.
Today the tablet didn't work well while pressing and moving (working for 1s or so), i couldn't move an application on the drawer to another slot for example.
Putting the screen in 1920px helped a lot, but i still have misses, i also think it's a software issue, since everything seems to work normally after a reboot.
Exactly the same problem.

So far I have not had any touch screen issues. I have the WiFi only model sold in the U.S.
I have discovered the stock email app does not work. When I select an email to view all I see is a blank screen. It's no big deal because I prefer 'Boxer' email app.

Could you please record a quick demonstration clip of rapid finger movements using the touch screen test app? Now that I've used the tablet for a couple of days I don't notice the lag that much unless I use the Nexus 9 in comparison - then the lag becomes very much apparent.

Odd… I have tried multiple touch screen test apps and the one you used in your demo is the only one that has the missed touches or lag. I also tested it on another device with the same results.
Give this touch test app a try and see what results

Are you using the app from the play store? Or the browser? There's different skins for both. Also there's the tapatalk app, which the xda app is based on.
But XDA has a free app.

Yep...it's the Nexus 7. Whats with the horribly washed view?!
I love the design of this device... it was to be almost perfect for me. However the screen sucks. Its washed out and text is not any clearer than my wife's nook. I'm thinking mine is a defective one. It has minor light bleed but more or less flush screen. No creaking... the left has a little more give but good otherwise. My USB port clicks firmly but it has some wobble. The device itself stutters a lot, even after a data reset. My biggest problem is that the screen becomes utterly unresponsive after a few minutes of use. I sent an email rather than call. If i don't get an RMA in a couple days I'll call in as well. I'm very disappointed. Want to love this device but I can't.

Yes, washed out text on my ASUS Infinity tf700! The only site that is like this is xda
The text is nice and clear when i logout though. I hope the site coders will fix.
in the browser, change the xda theme to xda 2010(bottom left) and itll solve the washed out look on your nexus 7.
The Nexus 7 display is calibrated very bad...
Especially greens and whites are washed out and white-saturation is very bad too!
So N7 can´t display different white and grey nuances - they look all white or washed out.
I think google/asus will never fix it...
This has nothing to do with the calibration of the N7 screen. It's because the 2013 theme doesn't "play nice" with mobile browsers. If you choose the Classic or 2010 theme at the bottom left of the screen it will work fine.
Can you post a screenshot? I'm curious if it will show up in there. If it is just in how the Nexus 7 renders the site, there isn't much to do about that. As others have said, you can either choose another theme (lower left-hand corner) or use the XDA app.

JavaScript related.. if you remove javascript in the browser settings than it works fine. but then the quick links pull downs dont work and things cease to function correctly. I contacted simms about the same thing the OP is talking about and that was the only other solution than going back to the horrid 2010 theme.
That same thing happen to me after I installed the eclipse logo in my signature. I had to ditch the logo to get the screen back to normal.
I had this foggy look when I browsed XDA on Dolphin Browser too, I assumed it was done so XDA could discourage us from browsing and to use their app instead.
Hi,
Being using N2 for about 3 weeks. Below are some issue that i encountered..
1) During sleep to awake or lock screen to unlock screen, there is a white thin line of light flashes at bottom screen just above the home button.
Very fast, maybe just a sec.This happens sometimes and intermittent.And had tried many units of N2 and having same issue.
2) Sometimes when after wifi used or signal loss. When you return to normal signal using data network, the data network will not be
on automatically until you switch to airplane mode and switch back to normal mode, then the data network signal reappear.
So far it happen on both me and my wife N2.
3) Some area on the Samsung Qwerty keyboard is not so sensitive or not so accurate.
Among all the above, i hope all is nothing related to the hardware. Hope all of the above Samsung will help to address and resolve by software updates.
Anyone seeing the above symptom please reply to this thread
Thanks
1) nope it's never happened to me. Maybe you've got a faulty set. U tested many units and most of them got that? Hmm.
2) mobile data comes right back after I disable wifi. Was it like this when u first used the device?
3) are u using any sp? Matte type which is thicker in nature could be the cause as samsung recommends not to use sp

Non of the above mentioned or non mentioned problems occured...
I'm on stock kernel and rom. Only No.2 happens to me.
Never experienced any of that.
At any given time Samsung can have a dozen "latest" ROMs and radio out for a single device based on region. OPs s/w could be different than what's on other people's phones. So it is possible the stock ROM/radio s/he's using could have issues where other people's wouldn't. It's happened on the Note 10.1 a couple of times already.
I agree with that.

It's either a 1.9Ghz snapdragon 600 or a 1.6 Ghz exynos 5 octa depending on the region ( it is confirmed). The Galaxy S IV is definitely not worth "upgrading" if you're coming from a note 2. But if you're like me phoneless then it is a great choice!
The S4 is a 'nice' upgrade from the S3, mostly on the software side. Hardware is a modest upgrade. But I would not consider upgrading from my N2 to a S4. N3...we shall see...
Think the LCD touch got great improvement with air touch and even with gloves.Nice for winter
Are any of those features come ti note 2? Camera is better but cpu update is pointless for me now. I really don't game that much and note 2 feels super smooth. Half of those apps could and should come to note 2. Any infos?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
What I like:
- Their presentation (Finally something different, not just a guy standing on the stage blabbing about new features. Also stream was good quality and stable)
- New CPU (Although difference would really be only in games - S3/N2 is already incredible smooth. Also I'm not sure about battery usage of the chip. Must be incredibly high with all cores online)
- Air touch (mostly for interacting with mouseover elements on web pages like drop down menus, don't care much about gestures. Still I can pull out S pen on N2 if I find that page, which are thankfully rare nowadays)
- Glove thingy (does it work with thick ski gloves or just thin ones?)
- Smart pause (although it most likely does not work with 3rd party players which makes it useless for me. Maybe xda will step in? (somehow link it to simulating physical pause button))
- Temperature sensor (barometer on N2 is not really useful, at least there are no useful apps for it except for just displaying sensor data. But temperature could be somewhat useful)
What I don't care about:
- Most of the software improvements (mostly gimmicks - things nice to have and show around, but not really that useful.).
What I don't like:
- Pentile screen
So unless you have spare 600 dollars laying around, I don't think its really worth upgrading from either S3 or N2. We have reached point (or we are very near reaching it) where interface on phones is completely smooth and lags are mostly caused by badly written apps or apps waiting for resources (NAND, Internet etc.), so speeding up CPU will not do much, except for games. And things that could make use of that power (voice recognition etc.) are being moved to the cloud.

Pentile again??? pfffff.......... can't wait to se a macro shot of the secreen next to a 5" 1080 non-pentile from the "competitors" . I'm really curious to see if it would suffer from the lower percieved resulution "issue" on such high PPI count. Personnaly i don't find either the s3 or the non pentile N2 to have a sharp screen... hopefully the N3 will come out full hd with RGB.
P.S not a fan of the octa... those 4 low powered cores running the UI might and most surely will cause small stutters, i've already seen some hick-ups on a "hands on" video from the conference, but those phones weren't running the final release software soo... fingers crossed..looks like the days IOS is crushed in smoothness are still to come.....
So far loving this thing. Really fast compared to my g3. The screen is definitely different, dimmer or just more subdued. The build IMO is very nice. Doesn't feel near as big or heavy as I thought it was going to.
Couple things I have noticed so far r that the keyboard theams r not all there. The halo blue and white I think r just the same black keyboard. Also there is no face recognition for the lock screen. There is Jo option for it at all. I know I saw a video review stating that it worked in the background of the lock screen.

It has face unlock mine works fine. It does work in the background, watch the small icon in center at the bottom when you go to unlock it. You have to choose something other than "swipe" for "smartlock" to appear (or not greyed out)
The keyboard themes are all there for me just tried to make sure. They don't change till you back out of the settings so maybe that is what you are seeing?
Well u all r right. Got the face unlock to work and it is very unobtrusive. I like that a lot. As for the keyboard I didn't notice the actual letters and numbers changed color while the overall theme stayed the same. Always a lot to learn with a new OS. Thanks for the help guys

It looks dimmer because it is a warmer screen and more color accurate. GS3 (and most other phones not just AMOLED) have their calibration cooler to make the screen look more vibrant, and the GS3 has bigger blue pixels which also makes the screen bluer. Samsung also oversaturates far more and the touchwiz UI and wallpapers are naturally very contrasty. All reasons for the Nexus 6 screen to look dimmer. I believe the brightness is about the same as a GS3 if you actually measured them.

U r definitely right there. The g3 was just made to pop I think. Much like the Samsung's. Its definitely not a complaint,it just isn't what I'm used to. After figuring out the first two problems I really can't find a complaint. Other then I'm missing my ir blaster. Guess I will HAVE to find that missing remote now.

My experience in just two days of use is similar. Not nearly as smooth as my N6. Scrolling in Chrome is where I see the most..... jankyness

Just a basic trick is animations under dev option
Speed it up or turn off. Cause I have none of these issues. Are you rooted and using kernel apps. Maybe something you changed. I used kernel auditor and tried powersave but really bogged so went to on demand. No problems underclocked a couple of steps on cpu too.

Nope not rooted. Speeding up animations won't fix the stuttering, especially when scrolling. The phone feels like it's running in battery saving mode all the time. Same apps I have loaded on my Nexus 6.
CPU Spy only sees a max frequency of 1440 for me. Maybe there's an incompatibility issue with the app as I swore this phone was 1.8ghz

Op stated animations laggy. First I have heard of these issues. A lot of users are waiting for phone still. Plus development is gonna start rolling out this week. Can only get better. Hopefully. Lol

It's a brand new card with nothing on it. I'll take it out and see if there's any difference though

I removed it and rebooted but the lag still exists. I'll try a hard reset and see if that fixes it
Scrolling performance for me has been noticeably worse than my ancient Galaxy S3, especially with Chrome, with only a small set of apps installed. No SD card is installed at this time. I'm chalking it up to having no ad blocking yet and the shear number of pixels being pushed but it's still a bummer.

My Nexus 6 doesn't have this issue. Mine was bad enough that I went ahead and returned it. No excuse for that on a $500 phone

I'm still on the fence, more concerned about my audio issues, but you're absolutely right.. I was expecting a nice upgrade, not a marginally worse Android experience on a larger display.
Oh lolly how much do we love you.. Pure lolly.. But i do love you and hope marshy is better
I got mine in today. I'm super disappointed.. Everything lags..
