Reviews for the Honor Pad V9
An XXL battery, a 144 Hz display, and eight speakers. With these features, the 11.5-inch Honor Pad V9 is aiming to shake up the Android competition and establish itself as an alternative to the new entry-level iPad. Even a flip cover and stylus are included. We put the device through its paces.

The Honor Pad V9 boasts decent specs for its price, especially in the audio and display departments, but it's pushed into serious iPad rival territory by a range of genuinely useful productivity features that are as good as you'll find anywhere else. Put simply, this is one of the best mid-range Android slates on the market.

The Honor Pad V9 takes everything I liked about the Pad 9, and takes it up a notch — improving performance, upgrading the display, vastly increasing battery life, and packing it all into a smaller, thinner chassis.

The Honor Pad V9 sits nicely between cheap tablets like the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and more premium options like the OnePlus Pad 2. It's got a powerful newer MediaTek processor, an incredible 144Hz display that'll have you wondering why more LCDs aren't this good, as well as an impressive 8-speaker system that sounds too good to be in a tablet. Honor even launched this one with the latest version of Android, fixing past mistakes. It also includes Honor's latest display eye care solutions, support for its best tablet accessories like the Magic Pencil 3, and battery life that'll get you through the longest of flights. It's a superb choice, so long as you don't need something special like ingress protection or cellular connectivity.

I’m really not a fan of the naming convention; this kind of arbitrary labelling only serves to confuse people and make it more difficult to quickly and cleanly determine which tablet is better. This easily could have (and should have) been the Honor Pad 10, or at least Honor Pad 9 Pro, to account for the additional features. However, the Honor Pad V9 is only £399 and, at that price, it looks like a bargain.

The Honor Pad V9 is so superior to other tablets in its price range that it's hard to narrow the list of top-performing features into a single review. Going from an iPad Mini that goes everywhere with me to the Honor Pad V9 had me doing even more on my tablet than before. Thanks to the tablet's eye protection features, I've found myself reaching for my tablet to stream shows rather than watching TV and even using it for reading instead of my Kindle (though not often). In addition, the tablet uses AI to prioritize voice and reduce noise during video calls, so I was able to use the 8MP front-facing camera for press briefings and work meetings. The near 4K-resolution display (2800x1840 pixels) is so crisp that most available media doesn't do it justice.

This tablet will be coming to market for 250 Euros (approximately $260 if you convert to USD right this minute) — and that price may be a bit different depending on your region. You are getting a lot of tablet for that price. Arguably the most annoying parts about this tablet are the dated software, and the apps you didn't ask for. Aside from those two things, you're getting a lot of tablet for your money. It's definitely better than an Amazon Fire tablet for one main reason — Google. The Google Play store has all the apps and games you could want for this tablet. There are some other options at this price point, but this is by far my favorite. It's large, thin, and has really good sound and can be had for a good price.

Going into the review of the HONOR Pad V9, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Having used the Magic Pad 2 12.3, which I quite liked, I knew the Pad V9 was going to be a step down. However, I wasn’t sure how much of a step down it would be. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this tablet has been, and it might just become my new favorite tablet.

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.
