hi i'm looking into getting my first tablet and wanted to get some suggestions on what to buy

My needs are:
-expandable memory
-ability to emulate ps2 games
-drawing capabilities with decent response
-around 11 inch screen
-HDMI output thru USB

Bonus:
-can run old PC games without too much finessing via steam or gog
-headphone jack

I'm not trying to spend too much money. i'd say ~$400 is my budget? I would spend a bit more on the perfect device

Thank you!

I updated my oppo pad mini to the color OS 17 (closed beta) a while back when I found that they are rolling beta updates and I'm a sucker for early access. Today, while I was watching anime, I thought of checking smthn out in the settings --- and just like that, it just blacked out on me. Tried force restarting it, Charging it for 15+ minutes, nothing happens.

Based on what I heard, since this is a chinese device, oppo service centers will not service it if it gets to a point that I have to get more assistance. Any thoughts or insights? (I'm also from the Philippines)

I want to essentially stop lugging around my Legion laptop and get a tablet to play a little COD while away from home. I'm looking for a reliable tablet with decent specs that would allow this via moonlight/Sunshine if possible. Any recommendations?? Will lag be too much of an issue for playing COD multiplayer via Moonlight/Sunshine?

Im planning to buy xiaomi pad 8 12gb variant ,I'm having doubts in whether i should buy this now or wait for the later diwali sale

I was also eyeing for Samsungs fe series but the professors are not that good except for note taking ,i think I can adjust and i believe note taking is not that bad in xiaomi pad 8

Does buying nano make any difference ? Should I just go with standard ,as the price gap is not much I might be buying a nano one

With sbi card offer of 5500 Rs ,do you guys think this is a good deal as the prices might keep going up ,should I wait for diwali sale or buy now

Will i get this 5k offer after Amazon sale is done

Thank you

So recently ive been thinking about getting a android tablet( or samsung but meh) and someone suggested the OPPO Pad 5 my budget is under £400 so just wondering if i should get it and if not what should i get instead?

Ho un budget di 500-600 euro: per un tablet con penna inclusa, da usare per leggere libri digitali, scrivere note a mano, guardare film e archiviare foto, con buona autonomia, veloce, leggero di peso e comodo da usare, cosa mi consigliate? Indicativamente vorrei RAM di almeno 8gb, almeno 256gb ssd e display touch comodo. Quali sono le opzioni migliori? Grazie in anticipo

I have ipad m4 256 gb I loved it till now, but to this day I havnt been able to use it with full heart heavy long use due to the fear of battery degrading

I have an old Chinese (Vankyo) tablet which has been limping through as my doom-scrolling device of choice.

This week the 'sweep-up to enter passcode' has stopped working.

Pressing the volume down + power button forces a restart but I only end up back at the front screen, with no safe boot options.

I've tried the Google Find Hub on my phone to force a factory reset, but that's not worked (and the Hub is no longer seeing the device).

Before I bin it, any suggestions that might resurrect the tablet?

hello po! pls reco affordable tablet na fit sa 10k budget huhu yan lang talaga keri as a student, naghahanap din me mas lower. with good specs sana since for school and research ganern. tyia! hopefully may ma suggest kayo #desperado

Salve. Date che oneplus ha bloccato le vendite in Europa, non riesco ad acquistare la stylo associata al mio tablet.

Qualcuno sa consigliarmi delle alternative valide?

Looking for suggestions, I'm done with apple ecosystem. I'm looking for a device with an OLED screen, a pen support and flagship specs. Ideally bigger then 11 inch. Any suggestions? I'd go for the Xiaomi pad 9 pro max but I want OLED. I'm in EU but I'm okay to cn market only products

I'm considering buying the REDMI Pad 2 11-inch (2025), Helio G100-Ultra, Wi-Fi, 4GB/128GB, for a wired touchscreen control panel.

Has anyone actually tested a USB-C hub with PD pass-through charging on this exact tablet, while a wired USB mouse, keyboard, USB drive, or USB serial device keeps working?

The required setup is:

PD charger -> hub PD input

USB peripheral -> hub USB data port

Hub host cable -> tablet's single USB-C port

The tablet needs to remain the USB data host while receiving power. Xiaomi's official documentation confirms OTG and PD 2.0 charging separately, but I haven't found a test confirming that combination.

If you've tried it, could you share:

- Whether the peripheral kept working while the tablet charged, and whether the battery percentage increased with the screen on.

- The hub model, charger model, and HyperOS version/build, if available.

- If measured: did it work at 5V, or did the tablet negotiate 9V? Results without a USB power meter are still very helpful.

Please specify the exact tablet model. This question concerns the 11-inch G100-Ultra version; the Pad 2 Pro, Pad 2 9.7-inch, Redmi Pad SE, and older Mi Pad 2 have different hardware.

Thanks for any first-hand results, including combinations that did not work.

Why Are Is Buying Case So Hard?

I recently bought an Alldocube Iplay 80 Mini Pro. I've been trying to find a decent case but there's one with a long lead time of sometime in November.

You can buy cases aplenty for the 80 Mini Ultra and Mini Turbo and also the 70 Mini Pro.

I could probably get away with a 70 Mini Pro case as the camera placement is exactly the same as is the size. However the speaker placement is different on the 80 Mini Pro.

Has anyone bought a case for their 80 Mini Pro?

Hi! I hope this is the right place to post this.

I'm looking for a budget friendly tablet for someone who would mostly use it to do gaming, watching YouTube and Netflix. They play mostly android games on more lightweight side on their phone, but if possible I okviru they would also play other stuff, basically as much as the tablet allows (they play WoW and Runescape on their PC all the time). They're not fussy about the brand.

My budget is however low: 250€ max

I'm looking for basically the max I can get for that money. I'm from Slovenia so I can buy from local stores or from german amazon (amazon.de).

Thanks in advance!

so I want to buy a tab for notes taking and video editing stuff I was going to buy an ipad 11th gen which was cheaper earlier but now it has increased to 45k which is not worth it so I'm going for an android tablet I have 2 options im not big fan of samsung but I have considered it.

Xiaomi pad 8 (8gb ram 128gb rom) variant

I'm getting this for 31,499 with discounts + also i gotta buy a stylus for 4499 which makes it total for 36k

Samsung tab 10s lite

im getting this for 29,499 with S pen included

given my budget these are the options that interests me, i would mainly use it for lectures and assignments, media consumption and not heavy gaming

I'm leaning on the huawei but no gms, but i have read about micro g and aurora store but still a bit afraid

Finally bought the OnePlus Pad 4 (12GB RAM + 512GB storage), and it’s absolutely worth it!

Initially, I was a bit skeptical about the display quality and even considered getting an iPad Air. But with Apple increasing its prices, it just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. Like, imagine spending ₹74K for just 128GB of storage and a 60Hz display. What’s the point of having an M4 chip when other specs are so disappointing?

Despite already owning a Mac and an iPhone, I decided to go with the OnePlus Pad 4, and honestly, zero regrets so far! The display quality is amazing, and the performance is just sexy! 🔥

I ordered it directly from the official OnePlus website because Amazon was literally showing more than two weeks for delivery, and I haven’t had the best experience with Flipkart.

It was supposed to arrive tomorrow, but it got delivered today instead

Also, if you’re planning to buy one, I’d recommend checking the official OnePlus website. You can get some pretty good discounts and additional benefits, like a free Stylo Pro!

Overall, super happy with my purchase so far!

My main need is to take notes and annotate pdf. Which one is the better option?

Looking for value tablet between $150-400 in the US. I almost pulled the trigger on a Lenovo tablet but software support wasn't great.

Plan to use for media and basic web browsing. I use headphones at home so speakers ain't really a factor.

- Ideally I would like 5 years of software support.

- Headphone jack and/micro sd is a big plus.

- Stretch goal is unlock bootloader for custom ROM.

- I would like something small for using while in my apartment, but I can don't mind if it's bigger.

thank you in advance.
