However, for the tinkerers among us, there are two paths:
The Huawei MediaPad T1-701u was launched back in 2014 as a no-nonsense, 7-inch entry-level slate. With its 1.2GHz Spreadtrum SC7731G quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and a modest 1024x600 display, it was never going to set speed records.

Material Design, Project Volta (better battery efficiency), and native 64-bit support (even though our chip was 32-bit) would have breathed new life into the tablet.
