Light metal body with IP53

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

  • Measured 11 h 12 min in PCMark
  • Smooth enough 90 Hz screen for the money
  • Loud stereo speakers
  • Clean HyperOS with little clutter
  • 4G calls and data work as well as a phone
  • IP53 splash resistance
  • Lasts 2-3 days of moderate use

Cons

  • Nearly 3 hours to charge on 10 W
  • Hard to see in bright sun
  • Slow chip: AnTuTu about 271,000
  • Earpiece volume low for calls in noisy places
  • Apps open slowly and the screen feels laggy
  • Some preloaded apps can't be removed
  • Slow 10 W charging
  • 91mobilesAug 2024

    A small, cheap tablet that does the basics well, with SIM calling as a bonus; slow charging and a dim-ish screen outdoors are the trade-offs.

  • India TVSep 2024

    Battery and sound are good, but sluggish apps and a laggy screen make it hard to recommend over alternatives.
