Low price on this affordable Android tablet that offers good specs for the price and the bundles with a case, keyboard etc. have been reduced in price as well.

Featuring stock Android 11 with Google Play, 10.4" 2000x1200 IPS display, 4GB RAM, 64GB Storage (microSD support), UNISOC T610 Octa-Core CPU, 6000mAh battery, Dual SIM 4G LTE with B28, 5MP Front/Rear Camera, WiFi ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, dual speakers and USB-C.

For reviews I recommend ETA Prime's video that shows it in action. The ROM performance is smooth, the display looks good and it handles modern and emulated games quite well for the price. The only real downsides in my opinion is the lack of Widevine L1 DRM for Amazon/Netflix HD and it won't get updates past Android 11.

    Pity Windvine is SD only, pretty solid device for the price otherwise.

  • ShouldIBuyIt on 20/03/2022 - 19:05

    Tempted just for reading magazines on the Libby app, and Udemy courses. Currently using a Samsung windows tablet and the user experience is not great.
    Don't mind SD quality for prime/Netflix as may use data over 4G.
    Is this the best option for this use case?

      Yeah this will do it fine.

  • Wonderfool on 20/03/2022 - 19:21

    If I just want a device to type documents on the go, will this suffice? Can it do excel/Google sheet? I'm not sure how excel works in the android space, especially nowadays.

    • Clear on 20/03/2022 - 19:31

      This would be suitable. The Microsoft Office apps are free to download for Android, however some of the more advanced features will require a Microsoft 365 subscription. Otherwise there are other free office apps for Android.

      • Wonderfool on 21/03/2022 - 04:14

        Thank you! I've got the bundle. But out of curiosity, in the event that the keyboard isn't very good, is there any suggestions for keyboard cases, or just good scissor switch keyboards in general? I'm very used to my laptop's fantastic keyboard.

  • mrhugo on 20/03/2022 - 19:31

    Thanks Clear.

    I understand you follow these Chinese tablets, what ones do you rate at the moment, say in the 0-$200, $200-$300 and $400 and above brackets. Or maybe there is some killer value tablet about to be released shortly.

    • Clear on 20/03/2022 - 19:49

      I'd rate this one as being the best lowest tablet. If you're wanting another budget tablet that has Widevine L1 I'd recommend the Lenovo Tab P11 for ~$240. Next up from there is the Teclast T40 Pro for ~$260 that offers good specs for the price, but like Alldocube there's no Widevine L1.

      For around the $300 bracket I think the Lenovo XiaoXin Plus for ~$303 is a great choice and better than the Lenovo XiaoXin Pad Pro 2020 in my opinion.

      For high end Chinese tablets I recommend the Xiaomi Pad 5 for ~$475 and I'd argue it's better than the Lenovo XiaoXin Pad Pro 2021 simply because the Lenovo has a low tier pentile OLED display and their track record of updates is worse than Xiaomi.

      I ended up with a Blackview Tab 11 myself due to a low introductory price that I can't see being repeated for quite a while. It's on par with the Alldocube iPlay 40 (not as good as Teclast T40 Pro) but the only downside is that Unisoc haven't been whitelisted by Netflix so there's no HD despite being Widevine L1. Blackview ended up releasing the Tab 10 Pro with a MediaTek CPU to get around the issue.

      As for what I'm looking forward to in the future? The Lenovo Legion Y700 8.8" gaming tablet that might get an international release. Currently it only has a Chinese ROM with no Google Play.

          Q: the page linked says this in red: Attention:This model is not Global Rom,is third-party rom and suppoort google play store and multi languages.It doesnt support Widevine L1 and ota update os. Does it mean, it does not support Netflix in HD ?

      • Ozone999 on 20/03/2022 - 20:01

        Might consider oppo pad of the budget is about $400. Not sure if there would be global version but the specs are appealing.

        • Clear on 20/03/2022 - 20:04
          +2

          I knew I was forgetting one. The specs on that one are really good and rivals the Xiaomi Pad Pro 5. Unfortunately the price at the moment is high with it being around $620 AU on Giztop.

      • HunterBargainHunter on 20/03/2022 - 20:03

        Thanks for all the details mate.
        Which of these tablets has a decent pen experience that you recommend?
        Kid is still in early years and would like to cut on paper for alphabet practice.

        • Clear on 20/03/2022 - 20:11

          They'd all work with a normal basic stylus. For an active stylus you'll want a Lenovo tablet out of the tablets I've listed. They have a few different ones like the Active Pen and Precision Pen.

          The AU 128GB version of the P11 Pro has been sold with one bundled at Costco and JB, albeit for a much higher price. You'd probably be better off getting the tablet and stylus separately or waiting for a Costco/JB sale to get local warranty.

      • arctan on 20/03/2022 - 20:07

        I bought the Lenovo Tab P11 and installed netflix app manually. The HD 1080p streaming is perfect.

      • gamesnepal on 20/03/2022 - 20:16

        Wow thanks for the informative reply. I'll either buy Alldocube kPad Tablet or Lenovo Tab P11 for my 17 month old who HAS to watch Cocomelon while eating. Which one would you pick?

        • Clear on 20/03/2022 - 20:20
          +3

          In terms of performance the Snapdragon 662 is better than the T610 by about 10% so the performance difference isn't a huge leap. With the P11 you will get better build quality, larger battery (with fast charge), Dolby Atmos speakers and Widevine L1 for Netflix HD/Amazon.

          If HD Netflix isn't essential I'd probably go for the kPad being much cheaper for a 17 month old.

          • Chippy47 on 20/03/2022 - 20:26

        I was glad to see Xiaomi paused their Android 12 rollout on the Pad 5 in favour of reworking the entire thing with Android 12L. While removing an update is usually a bad thing, they seem pretty committed to actually delivering a good experience. I figure I'll pick up one of those this year for a bit of reading/movies in bed.

        Lenovo have only done that for the P12 Pro (Pad Pro 12.6) which seems pretty pricey compared to anything else around.

        • Clear on 21/03/2022 - 12:33
          +3

          It's good to hear that Google are taking Android for tablets a bit more serious. Especially when Google Play will soon show apps that are 'high quality' for tablets as many are just an oversized version of the mobile app.

          The Tab P12 Pro has just received the 12L Beta 3 but that's the unstable release and not the final beta sadly. The other issue is that it'll brick the Chinese devices since they run ZUI.

      • pao2x on 21/03/2022 - 22:27

        Hi Clear, I have a question about tabs that do not have Widevine. If I cast from say the Teclast T40 or iplay 40 or on chromecast or google TV, would the 1080 or 4K from these devices take over? Also I am looking for a tablet medium to high end on the chinese android tabs (not ipad pro or galaxy) with 4G. What do you think is best $250 -450

        • Clear on 22/03/2022 - 01:18
          +1

          I believe it should have the resolution of the tablet on the Chromecast. Widevine is just DRM for Netflix and other streaming services.

      • quill on 24/03/2022 - 12:56

        Do you have similar recommendations for windows based tablets?

        • Clear on 24/03/2022 - 12:58

          The Chinese Windows tablets aren't affordable now that Microsoft and Intel are no longer subsidising hardware/software. Normally better o grab a Surface or similar.

    The Unisoc T618 is responsive and the tablet doesnt get hot, 2k screen is bright and easy on my eyes.
    It has a great screen, battery, speakers for the price - 8GB RAM is nice also.
    It weighs more than they advertise.

            Although, looking at the benchmarks, it is still a better CPU than the Unisoc T618 (but 2x the price).

            The "FE" models in the phones seem to have high spec CPU, but not so in the FE tablets.

              The 2x the price you get updates galore with samsung.

              Netflix in fhd whereas the t618 is sd only. Unless unisoc can get whitelisted by netflix which is looking unlikely.

    Who bought tempered glass protector for this? Mine is getting bubbles on the edges. Is it because the surface is uneven? Or I stuffed up applying it? I initially skipped the two wipes because I just took off the pre-applied plastic protector so I knew it was clean, but maybe it's a static thing and those help?

    BTW, trying to squeeze the bubbles isn't working.

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 04/04/2022 - 10:40

      Just received mine. Was going to apply the tempered screen protector, and while cleaning up the glass first, I noticed there was already a screen protector applied. Probably not a glass one though but will keep it for now.

      I guess you applied the tempered screen protector on that plastic screen protector, hence the bubbles.

      Btw, I'm not talking about the plastic protector with the brand on it. There is a second one underneath.

      • scupper on 13/04/2022 - 17:52

        No, I also took out the plastic screen protector.

      Nothing to be worried about. The tablet and system image is created in China so it's natural for the timezone to China as well. Factory reset and stick an antivirus scanner on there if you're paranoid.
