The UnboxingTN Verdict
out of 100
The TCL Tab 8 Gen 2 is light and smooth-scrolling, but modest performance, a basic display, and slow charging limit its appeal.
What is good
- 90Hz refresh rate enables smoother scrolling
- 330g weight and 8.35mm thickness keep it portable
- Expandable storage complements 64GB internal capacity
What is not
- 800×1340 IPS TFT display offers limited sharpness at 179ppi
- Helio G80 with 4GB RAM is modest for demanding apps
- 6000mAh battery pairs with only 18W charging
