Tablet

The ultra-cheap Lenovo Tab M8 comes with low-end specs such as a MediaTek Helio A22 processor with 2GB of RAM and an 8-inch IPS display, but thanks to its LTE connectivity, the affordable Android tablet can be a practical device for certain use cases.

OnePlus claims to bring liquid cooling to mobile gaming with its latest product announcement. Not only that, the new Radiator is also rated to reduce a magnetically connected device's temperature by up to 34 degrees Celsius and support wireless charging at the same time - which, as OnePlus' latest flagship smartphone does not have that feature, is ironic.

Update: Roland Quandt shares Indian pricing for 6 GB of RAM, 128 GB of storage and Wi-Fi only variant.
Samsung is preparing to bolster the Galaxy Tab S9 series, having already released three flagship models. While the company has not commented further yet, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE has stopped by the FCC in the US, a crucial step towards its release later this year. Samsung appears to have confirmed the existence of both Tab S9 FE models now too.

NVIDIA has announced that its GeForce NOW library will grow by just over 40 games by the end of August 2023. The cloud gaming service will also add the full PC version of Baldur's Gate 3 this month, not to mention access to DOOM-, Wolfenstein- and Quake-series games as Bethesda's portfolio starts to appear on the platform.

The first sightings of what was previously thought of as the Redmi Pad 2 have appeared online. Actually launching as the Redmi Pad SE, the tablet will combine an 11-inch display with a Snapdragon 680 chipset and up to 6 GB of RAM.

Not only is the new Oukitel RT7 Titan touted as the "first rugged tablet with 5G", it also debuts a new battery large enough to sustain an estimated 2,720-hour standby time. The slate is also equipped with "up to 24GB" of RAM, triple rear cameras with Night Vision and even the option of a convenient built-in handle.

Xiaomi is said to launch a new, Max variant of its Pad 6 flagship Android tablet series soon. Now, these rumors are bolstered with a new claim of Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra-challenging screen real estate from a typically reliable source. The spec would indeed make the 6 Max the biggest Xiaomi tablet yet, and, thus, nearly unparalleled in its target market.

Lenovo is now offering the Tab Pro 12.7 in China. As its name suggests, the Tab Pro 12.7 has a 12.7-inch display, which Lenovo complements with a Snapdragon 870 chipset and 8 GB of RAM. The Tab Pro 12.7 offers a 144 Hz panel and a 10,200 mAh battery capacity too, among other features.

Aside from the well-performing 11-inch IPS display, the wallet-friendly Xiaomi tablet also comes with a fast Qualcomm SoC, pen support and a respectable price-performance ratio thanks to a noteworthy discount relative to its quite reasonable MSRP.

The Lenovo Tab P12 is one of the first devices powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7050, a 6 nm chipset complemented by up to 8 GB of RAM and a 10,200 mAh battery. Available from €399, the Tab P12 supports an active stylus and a detachable keyboard.

Samsung's trio of high-end tablets are now official. The Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9+ and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra all feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy SoC, expandable memory and support for 45 W fast charging. They come pre-loaded with productivity apps and split-screen functionality out of the box.

Lepow calls its latest portable monitor the DualViews, as it allows the user to connect not just one but two extra screens to a range of devices. They can be stacked vertically above a laptop for a particularly tall multi-tasking experience, or present information to others thanks to a convertible-like hinged build. Not only that, but one of the DualViews' screens is to have touchscreen functionality.

Elon Musk has announced that the site heretofore known as Twitter will "bid adieu" to its former brand identity, iconic blue bird avatar included. Company CEO Linda Yaccarino has touted the announcement as a pivotal stage in the social media platform's evolution into an "everything app" that integrates payments as well as multimedia messaging.

Apple's rumored OLED iPad Pros are not even here, yet are now already credited with the ability to boost demand of other panels made of the same popular screen material made for the tablets or laptops that will be released to compete with them. The resulting growth of their segment is now projected to outpace that of the OLED market in general over the next eight years.

Oukitel touts its new RT6 as its "most powerful" rugged Android tablet yet. Its 10.1-inch display is sustained by a battery with a capacity as large as some power banks out there, rated to stay on for no less than 2,250 hours on standby. It has a microSD card slot and RAM that can be extended in its software, although its robust nature comes with one or two potential key weaknesses.

A leaker has outlined the many variants of the Galaxy Tab S9 series that Samsung plans to offer in Europe. Not only has @billbil_kun also confirmed pricing for the Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9 Plus and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, but they have also outlined pricing for the three tablets' official accessories.

Lenovo has made its second-gen Android gaming tablet official today (July 22, 2023). The 2023 version of the Y700 comes in two colors and three different RAM/storage SKUs, which may be just part of what helps the new version blow its inaugural predecessor away in terms of performance. Then again, their battery and charging stats remain constant.

The Realme Pad 2 has been officially announced in India. It features an 11.2-inch LCD screen, a MediaTek Helio G99 SoC, up to 8 GB RAM/256 GB storage, and an 8,360 mAh battery. It can be bought via Flipkart and Realme's website on August 11.

Lenovo has yet to unleash the latest version of its compact Android gaming tablet on the market. Nevertheless, the OEM has chosen to show off its most unique hardware feature in advance of this event. The Legion Y700 2023 will have not one, but two, USB-C ports, so that its owner can use connect peripherals to and charge the device at the same time.

Xiaomi has a bunch of devices scheduled to launch next month. Word on the grapevine indicates a launch event for the Redmi K60 Ultra and Redmi Pad 2, and also one for the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 and Pad 6 Max, with the latter two expected to remain exclusive to the Chinese market.

JLab has augmented its Epic series of products with an accessory that can connect to smartphones, tablets or PCs - however, it is for typing on them rather than listening to their audio in this case. The Epic Wireless Keyboard aims for a premium experience with a metallic build that incorporates a physical media dial and "soft touch" keys (that can be shared between up to 3 user devices), yet has been priced at well under US$100.

Recent leaks hinting at the addition of a new "Max" variant to Xiaomi's line of premium Android slates may have been augmented by another new tip. This one purports to confirm that the OEM has indeed just cleared a new tablet for sale in its native China. The device has the same charging technology as its putative Pro sibling.

Lenovo promises to unlock fun and creativity all day long with the latest version of its Tab M10. Its compact 10.6-inch display chassis is touted as water- and dust-resistant. Its 2K screen is TÜV Rheinland-certified for eye comfort while using the new slate's Reading Mode. It also runs on a 5G-capable Qualcomm processor and, thus, supports additional functions such as "lag-free" video calls.

The budget-friendly 10-inch Android tablet features a decent 2K IPS display as well as an octa-core processor, which turn the Lenovo Tab M10 Plus Gen 3 into a viable media consumption device for frugal users with a rather tight budget.

The Galaxy Tab S9 FE may still be months away from being released. However, leaker @OnLeaks has already shared CAD-based renders of the tablet, building on an earlier leak relating to the larger Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus. The Galaxy Tab S9 FE appears to be a cheaper alternative to the Galaxy Tab S9 with an 11-inch display, an Exynos 1380 chipset and 6 GB of RAM.

Samsung may only be a few weeks away from revealing flagship Galaxy Tab S9 tablets, but the company also has Fan Edition tablets around the corner too. While the Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus is not expected to launch until the autumn, @OnLeaks has already delivered a first look at the large tablet.

Lenovo continues to tease the Legion Y700 2023 refresh online. The new gaming-focused tablet will combine a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset with 16 GB of RAM, among other features.

A renowned leaker has provided new details about rumoured prices of the Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9 Plus and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. Launching on July 26 during Samsung's next Galaxy Unpacked event, the trio may only feature modest price uplifts from their predecessors, contrary to earlier reports.

Honor has announced the MagicPad 13, a 2.8K and 144 Hz tablet with a huge battery. Honor also includes a Snapdragon 888 chipset, up to 16 GB of RAM and a choice between 256 GB or 512 GB of storage.

Onyx has launched the BOOX Palma, a 6.13-inch E-reader that runs Android 11. Available at launch with a complimentary protective case, the Onyx BOOX Palma has 6 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and a 3,950 mAh battery, among other features.

MediaTek has introduced the Dimensity 6100 Plus (or 6100+) as the latest option in processors to help mobile device OEMs "democratize" historically high-end features such as up to 120Hz displays. It also purports to bring power drain on 5G down compared to its competitors - then again, it seems MediaTek has decided that the actual SoC specs needed for these potential advantages are hardly brand-new.

A retailer has revealed European pricing for select Galaxy Tab S9 series SKUs. Seemingly, Samsung plans to increase prices compared to last year's Galaxy Tab S8 series, with roughly 20% higher MSRPs across the board.

Launching globally today with a final price tag that varies based on the various import fees and deals that apply to a certain market, the rugged Blackview Active 8 Pro Android tablet is available for US customers at US$209.99 thanks to a US$30 discount code. Alongside it, the first 200 orders can get an additional US$11 coupon.

Loaded with Android 13, the upcoming Doogee T10S and T20S tablets feature a 10.x-inch display, a yet-to-be-revealed octa-core processor, as well as 6/8 GB of memory and 128 GB internal storage space, with support for up to 1 TB microSD cards. Sales will kick off at the end of the month via Amazon, AliExpress, and DoogeeMall.

Honor is already hyping its MagicPad as its "most powerful tablet yet" ahead of its impending launch. Now, new photos have emerged that purport to show how this potentially compelling 13-inch slate will look prior to this event. They hint that the device will have more of a smartphone-like camera hump than usual, although it will have all the accessories and use-cases a potential buyer might have come to expect in 2023.

Meta announced that it had 'invented' a "new way to communicate with text" about 3 days ago (on July 5, 2023) - which has resulted in millions of users' worth of uptake already. However, as it turns out, the fact that many of them were able to register with their existing Instagram handle implies a potentially crucial drawback of the new social media option. The links between the two accounts means that one cannot be deleted without also dumping the other.

Lenovo's revelation that it would be updating the Legion Y700 for 2023 has sparked hopes for a portable gaming tablet with the power to match the year in its product number. Now, a famous leaker purports to confirm that it will indeed have the option of more RAM in its second generation, as well as a newer OS. However, while its silicon will apparently also upgrade compared to the original Y700, it will not be quite as new as humanly possible.

The NOOK GlowLight 4 Plus is the latest E-Reader from Barnes & Noble. The reader features a 7.8-inch e Ink display, 32 GB of storage, and a waterproof design, as well as the NOOK's namesake GlowLight front light with an adjustable color temperature.

Honor has launched the Pad X8 Pro and Pad X9 in China and the UK, respectively. Essentially the same tablet, the pair feature 11.5-inch IPS displays with 120 Hz refresh rates and 1200p resolutions. Honor has also included a 7,250 mAh battery, among other features.

Xiaomi is now slated to take its current Pad 6 series to the "Max", in at least 1 sense of the word. The possibly super-sized variant is thought to join its vanilla and Pro siblings on the Android tablet soon, with its own first-party keyboard dock to boot. The accessory has now been certified as a Bluetooth accessory, presumably in preparation for its launch.

Xiaomi has finally released the Pad 6 series outside its home market. While the company has brought the Pad 6 to Europe and the UK, the Pad 6 Pro appears destined to become another Chinese exclusive.

Samsung has now confirmed the date of its next Galaxy Unpacked event, in which it is expected to introduce the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5, as well as the Galaxy Watch6 and Galaxy Tab S9 series. The company is also offering discounts and prize draws for those who register on its website.

Samsung is a few weeks away from unveiling the Galaxy Tab S9 series alongside the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Flip5. In the meantime, a renowned leaker has shared official product images of the Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9 Plus and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, highlighting the similarities with Samsung's existing Galaxy Tab S8 tablets.

Honor has announced that it will debut a new tablet during its upcoming major product event.
