The UnboxingTN Verdict

out of 100

A powerful 5G tablet with ample storage and a large battery, held back by its weight, mono speaker, and older Android 13 software.

What is good

  • Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and 12GB RAM deliver strong performance.
  • 512GB storage provides generous room for apps and media.
  • 5G and Wi-Fi 6 provide modern wireless connectivity.

What is not

  • 605g weight makes the tablet less comfortable to carry.
  • Mono speakers limit the audio experience.
  • Android 13 offers an older software baseline.
