Each part is rated on one scale for every tablet, from reviewers' measurements (battery tests, brightness, benchmarks) where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports, including after-sales service. It rates the tablet itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Quick for the price, plays games well
  • Bright 120Hz screen (628 nits measured)
  • Loud, clean speakers
  • Feels premium and thin
  • Good multitasking tools
  • Big 120Hz screen gets very bright
  • Full Google apps

Cons

  • Only 8.5 h in PCMark battery test
  • Charging slow for 35W
  • No update commitment, shipped on Android 13
  • No microSD slot, weak low-light camera
  • No fingerprint reader
  • LCD, not OLED
  • About a working day of battery
  • Tech AdvisorMar 2024

    One of the best sub-£300 tablets for speed and screen, but short battery life and no update promise hold it back (global version).

  • A large, good-looking budget alternative to the iPad with a fine screen and enough power for the money.

  • GSMArenaApr 2024

    Good-value big-screen tablet with eight speakers; its battery results were among the weakest GSMArena has recorded.
