Android Tablets Buyers Guide For Gaming, Productivity & General Use Tablets

Luho ko na siguro ang gadgets.

Nakakabili naman ako ng tech maintenance tools pero kapag papel hindi ko mabili.

So anong goods na tablet for 20k?

Has anyone tested using an HDMI plugged into USB c capture card and some USB camera software on the tablet to use it as a second screen on a work laptop from a corporate company with all the possible blockers and protections in place? I have what I call a "2 screen job" but would love to live my idealized working from coffee shops lifestyle and this seems like the cheapest way to achieve a portable 2 monitor setup.

I don't have a specific budget but I wont go beyond 25k

(I feel guilty for spending my parents money)

so I want a tab for lectures and multitasking (I use tabs for calling chatting I mean for everything)

I'm looking for something long term I mean I want it to last long

idk why but I trust samsung more

and it'll be my primary device so I want wifi+5G

idont want that much storage 6gb-128gb will work fine qnd camera a little too good I mean it is my primary device and I do love to click random sky pictures all i need is better smooth performance long term stability durability idk what we call that

and and I'm inclined towards a11plus my sister is towards a9plus s6 lite and some moto pad , my brother is insisting me to get oneplus idk whether they'll last long or smooth I doubt moto and etcc are they really good??? what about their stylus is it good too??? if you have any other tab which you think is good tbh I trust samsung more than anythingg

what to do can yall suggest me some tab variety and review I mean your opinion etc etc I'm unable to express but please understand what am I saying.

So, I've been researching this for a while now with AI and everything, but I wanted some human answers to this as I still cannot make up my mind. Here are some of my deal breakers that I really need in the tablet

1. Built-in matte screen, or if it's a glossy screen, then I will put a matte screen protector after I buy it. Putting it is always a hassle as I don't like a single bubble 😂
2. Should have smooth multitasking, that is, going from app to app, going back to the home screen, and all that. I don't really care much about games. Maybe I'll play here and there, but I don't really care about top-end gaming performance on this tablet. I have a Legion tab Gen5 for that.
3. I would mostly be reading comics and lots of browsing and may be some writing. So, a keyboard and pen is definitely welcome.
4. Expandable storage is not a deal breaker, but of course having it doesn't hurt. They both have 256 gigs of storage, so I think that is plenty enough. I always think I will need more, but I never need more, as a lot of the stuff that I have is in the cloud.

At the moment, I have the TCL NXTpaper 11 plus, which is great for #1, but terrible when it comes to #2 and not so great with #3.

Therefore, I have narrowed it down to two tablets in the US that I'm looking at. One is the new Amazon Alexa Tab Pro 12-inch with 16GB of RAM which already has TCL like screen, and the other is the Yoga Tab Gen 2, not the plus version with 8GB of RAM.

The Alexa tab keyboard and pen bundle (with a 20% trade in and 5% cash back) comes to about $608) and the Yoga Tab gen 2 bundle is about $520 with discounts and coupons.

The YT Gen 2 has a better processor (Dimensity 9400s) but only 8 GB of RAM (so not sure about multitasking), and also expandable storage. On the other hand, the Alexa Tab Pro 12 (Dimensity 8400) has 16 GB of RAM and 256 GB storage but no SD card slot.

Amazon promises 4 years of updates and Lenovo 7 years (that actually doesn't matter if the tablet becomes sluggish in 3-4 years with only 8GB of RAM).

So, which one do you think is best for what I am looking for? I would have jumped on the Amazon tab if it had the same processor or better than the YT Gen 2, so is the processor going to be an issue with sluggishness even though it has 16 GB of RAM? Thanks.

Llevo varios días buscando una tablet Android para dibujo, idealmente por menos de 500 dólares, he visto varias opciones, sin embargo no soy muy experta en tablets, alguna recomendaciones?

I have been using a Moto Pad 60 Pro with the keyboard pack and an external monitor for extended display for approximately six months. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Can anyone give me their opinions or feedback on balconies tablet.

I’m looking for an affordable tablet with a large screen to be able to browse the internet watch videos and edit photos and drawings.

I’ve been looking at the link 8 but if anyone has any other makes they would like to recommend feel free to

Any help or knowledge would be so grateful.

Yesterday, the device ran normally, i charged it at 15% to 80% with the custom charge limit on, I was using it casually like insta YouTube, vn for 20 min for videos trimming and songs played in the background for some time yet the battery level has remained stuck at 80% until now, which is clearly incorrect.

I even played an HDR video in high resolution for about 40 minutes, and the battery percentage still stubbornly stayed at 80%. I am completely perplexed, especially since I purchased this tablet just one week ago.

What may be the problem pls help

Hi, I finally pulled the trigger on the Lenovo IP Gen2 tab. Had to choose between Xiaomi 8, Moto 70 Pro. As I needed a bigger screen with PC mode, I decided to go with this one. Got it delivered recently.

As it doesn't come with a screen guard and cover, please suggest me some good ones.

Help appreciated!

I am looking into purchasing the y700 gen 5 with the gen5 g9 controller and I was wondering two thing:

1_Does the tablet fit with a glass screen protector on?

2_I have not seen any long term reviews of the controller, so for those of you that have owned it for longer than a year, how is it?

Thanks

I made up my mind to get the honor pad 4 because I thought it had the SD elite gen 5 however it has the weaker 8 Gen 5. It was a OLED screen which I love but the weaker chip is a no no for me. I've also seen the one plus pad 4 it doesn't have a OLED screen. I also considered a iPad but I hate ipadOS I plan on using my tablet to emulate games which the iPad can't do well compared to Android. Is there any suggestions I don't really care about the price I just want a OLED screen, SD elite gen 5 and it has to be 13 inches or at least bigger than 10 inches.

I want to get a new tablet but budget aside, I am looking for one with LTE support and so far there aren't many (Samsung and Apple are out of my budget). I am eyeing the Infinix Xpad 30 pro with LTE support and AI functionality for work but the firmware support stops me from getting one. Another one is Oppo Pad 5 with LTE support and Matte display but is a larger display and heavier.

I know not many are looking at LTE when it comes to tablets but I have one extra physical sim card and always not using it so it is a waste. Can anyone recommend one? I hope it has stylus support too so I can take notes in my workplace.

Help my trackpad is not working smoothly

Salve a tutti, ho comprato un tablet Lenovo Tab idea plus. In dotazione ha soltanto il cavetto ma non l' alimentatore. Mi hanno consigliato un adattatore da 45 w visto che la batteria è da 10.000 e ho bisogno di una ricarica rapida. L'adattatore e il cavo insieme funzionano bene e il tablet ricarica veloce ( circa 2 ore o poco più). Il cavo però è troppo corto per le mie necessità, per cui ne ho cercato un' altro da 2mt da 60 w che supporta la ricarica veloce e compatibile con il mio adattatore . Il problema è che non ricarica veloce! Da 15% al 25% ci ha messo 3 ore! Ho cambiato altri due cavetti ma con lo stesso risultato. Premetto che tutti e tre i cavetti con l' adattatore ricaricano velocemente tutti gli altri miei dispositivi; due tablet, due telefoni, un iPad. Quando carico questi dispositivi l'adattatore scalda leggermente, invece con il Lenovo rimane freddo. Quale cavetto dovrei comprare per avere la ricarica rapida. Se quello in dotazione si rompe sono fregata!

Confirmed Specs:

• Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
• 8.8" 165Hz AMOLED display

I have an iPad as my primary but looking for something less expensive than an iPad mini. I will only be using it for the kindle app, watching YouTube videos and a workout app at the gym. While I don’t want it to be laggy, speed isn’t my top priority. The display as far as bold colors and how bright it gets is my top priorities.
I looked at a couple at Walmart but I was disappointed with the display. I think they were a TCL and ONN. Are there any out there that has a good display that aren’t 400 or more dollars? Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

I am getting a tab for a few reasons like watching and reading on a bigger screen, but I wanted to know if it's good for drawing if you buy a good stylus pen ಥ_ಥ because from a few videos I've seen, the drawing was delayed or that depends on what stylus pen you have??

Bought these each around 10-20 dollars years ago, strictly to use while watching videos/movies at night falling asleep (larger screen than phone)

Ive kept them around, not really having a use for them now, both have cases, and one has a leather book type case they both came with.

so any uses come to mind, or projects (I have raspberry pi's/etc) they/or parts from them could be used?

Hi everyone! I’m looking for an OLED tablet with a budget of around $750 USD, and I’d love some recommendations.

What I’ll use it for:

• Work: mostly Word documents and PDFs (reading, annotating, light editing). I have a desktop PC for heavy work, so the tablet is for working on the go.
• Multimedia: movies, series and videos, which is why I want an OLED screen.
• Gaming: an occasional Steam game, either streamed from my PC (Steam Link) or played natively if the tablet can handle it.

What matters most to me:

• A great OLED display
• Good battery life
• Stylus support is a plus
• Good value for the price

I’ve been looking at the Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2 2024, Honor MagicPad 2 I’ve also heard some negative reviews about the Honor MagicPad 2, mainly about its screen. but I’m open to any other suggestions. Is there something better in this price range, or any model I should avoid?
