Life Pro Tip: Stay away from Mediatek chips

They really need to make black bezels an option.
I've got a Teclast that has black bezels up front with a champagne back...can't see the back with a case on...😎

Good to discover Alldocube make more premium tablets as well as cheapo ones. I rate Alldocube for value for money

Lemme guess. Sticking with buying an older Galaxy Tab S 10.5 is a better idea..? Cost less too.

I'm being asked several times a month for a cheap Android tablet, and I'm having a hard time giving an answer. My Main issues are:
1- build quality. I've bought a few tablets to test them myself, and, independently of how nice they perform right out of the box, it seems some brands (Teclast, 3/3 failed for me in less than a year) just aren't solidly built. But am I just unlucky with my Teclast purchases, or are they really crap ?
2- design/equipment quality. One very weak aspect can spoil the whole device. When I first got my Chuwi Hi9 AIr, I remember thinking I could not even listen to TV series on those extremely lousy speakers. I did get used to it, but I'm a bit leery of recommending it to others, especially kids who tend to listen to music directly off their devices.

I'm a bit sad the recommended devices list on your web site isn't more up to date, and over-time quality feedback isn't available. I don't know which device I can recommend and be confident I won't get complaints.

Right now I'm recommending:
1- At the end high and if English-only isn't a problem, Xiaomi's Mi Pad 4 and 4 Plus. Alas I'm French, so English-only ususally *is* a problem.
2- At the safe end, Amazon's Fire HD8 and HD10, Alas these can only be bought in the US and the UK, not in France. Also, Amazon's Launcher sucks and can't be swapped out even after installing Google's PlayStore.
3- So we're back to me having to recommend Chinese tablets 90% of the time, and feeling I don't have enough info on build and component quality. I'm going with Chuwi Hi9 Air at 10", because mine works fine (I much prefer my Mi Pad 4 Plus though), and at 8" the Alldocube M8 because of your review.

I guess my question is: could you make my job easier by trying to highlight which devices/brands have non-crappy quality and quality control, and no Very Bad aspect among screen, battery, wifi, sound ? I know your "Cons:" kind of do that, but... there's a reason why Ars Technica has godd/bad/ugly category. Something can be so-so but still OK, or it can be terribad. That's one of those rare cases where there's a French word with no English equivalent: "rédhibitoire" means "so bad it spoils the whole thing regardless of the rest".

tldr: I need an answer to the question: "Which 8" and 10" tablet should I get for my nephews, friends, aunts....". Must be solid to start with (no "ugh, that's bad"), and over time.

Another g8 tutorial. How does this model compare to teclast t30? Which one is worth buying?

[soulextinguisher]

Damn doesn't get dim enough
I was only interested in it for reading

[iLoveTaeyeonSNSD]

Love that display, but I would've gotten it if it has a 660 instead.

[alurnima]

Besides the SoC...Why chinese Manufacturers love White so much and at this price point should have had 4G integrated :(

Black+4G+250$ would have sold much better IMHO.

[weifengmao]

I'm struggling to understand what this tablet is for. AMOLED screen is nice but lack of Widevine L1 support means it's no good for media consumption. The use of a Mediatek chip leads to questionable gaming performance. No detached keyboard means it is no good for productivity work.

[murilo]

Is it possible to have a reasonable styllus experience on this tablet? if not, what would be the most indicated, in this price range? I'm looking for a tablet to write and draw some mind maps, nothing complicated.

[ivanvukosavljevic]

What is physical dimensions of battery

[vertron]

Have you tried using the quick shortcut maker app to access miravision? It could be installed but not available to access in the settings

[bairaqarpinker]

Front cam is actually good, battery is disappointment.

[Rafael]

Please! Does the Windows 10 really works? How's the Office pack?

[umifatih]

Is this tablet can miracast/screen mirroring/airplay with anycast dongle?

[vijayanand]

Is there any 10.5 inch super Amoled tablet with widevine L1 certification on earth?

[muhasri]

This is Tablet wiFi only or support 4G LTE network 😁 ?

[quadzilla]

At $200 this would have been very nice. For close to $300 people will look elsewhere. Great review

[gokuo]

Great review! But no Netflix HD or HDR support is a deal breaker.
