10 best 8 inch tablets

Tablet computers rarely get a shockproof case at their disposal. Especially those of them that are endowed with a screen diagonal of which does not exceed 8 inches. This model is an exception to the rule. It is also not afraid to drop into the water.And if you know the problem when the touch screen does not respond well to touch in the rain, then you will certainly be pleased with the mass of physical buttons under the screen. Two of them are reassignable! Another interesting feature is the replaceable battery. Good news for those who are going to take the device with them on autonomous trips lasting many days. Everything is in order with the device and with the screen, even if it is not able to boast a record resolution. It is also impossible not to note the presence of USB Type-C, support for Wi-Fi 802.11ac and a decent amount of memory. The only thing that scares me is the high cost. Yes, and Android 8.1 will not suit everyone - soon some applications will no longer support this version.

The most inexpensive tablet with a screen diagonal of 8 inches. The manufacturer saved on everything, and as a result, he managed to fit into the budget of 6,000 rubles. So, there is a small battery, a weak processor and a small amount of memory, both operational and permanent.The screen is not bad: HD resolution and a matrix with large viewing angles. The bezels around the display are quite thin, and thanks to this, the device looks many times more expensive than it really is. When you turn it on for the first time, you will see the Android 9 interface, so even with a very real risk of being left without updates, you get the current version of the OS, which will remain that way for another two years for sure.

An 8-inch tablet that pleases with a budget price and the Samsung logo on the back. Savings are felt in rather thick frames, but not in the quality of performance. The case is durable and reliable, the device is pleasant to hold in your hands. Nothing backlash, does not bend. Users in the reviews pay attention to stable software running on Android 9, support for Wi-Fi 5 GHz and a good battery. The tablet can also charge other devices via an OTG cable. The RAM is only 2 GB, so this model is not suitable for gaming and "heavy" tasks.However, the tablet copes with the routine perfectly well. A good screen, decent battery life, a metal case, support for memory cards - all this allowed this model to rise to the title of one of the best 8-inch tablets.

This model is designed for use by young children. This is evidenced by at least a kit that includes a bright silicone case, which at the same time acts as a stand. And to make it comfortable for the child to play educational games, he is offered a fairly thick stylus. Also, the "tablet" is ideal for watching cartoons, because its screen has maximum viewing angles. You can run this or that online service even outdoors. To do this, just insert a SIM card. At least if you bought the version with 16 GB of built-in storage. Other features include a good eight-core processor, thanks to which all applications and games work without very noticeable slowdowns.The buyer can only complain about the lack of Google services, because of which he will have to use an analogue from HUAWEI. By the way, Android 10 is supplemented with a special children's shell.

Inexpensive tablet from a Chinese manufacturer. The 8-inch diagonal, combined with thin bezels, gave the effect of compactness: this device can be put into almost any standard pocket. To keep the model budget, Lenovo had to save on screen resolution and performance. The power of the tablet is enough to solve daily tasks: surfing the Internet, simple games, working with text and Excel spreadsheets, watching videos and movies. The battery is decent: its capacity is enough for up to 12 hours of tablet operation. If you're looking for a modern looking and lightweight 8-inch tablet with basic performance, this model is one of the best for the money.

One of the cheapest tablets in our selection. From this follows its main advantage. It is not scary to give such a device to your child. Even if he breaks it, the amount spent will be such that she will not be sorry. What did the manufacturer save on? He installed a modest processor from an obscure company here. Also, the owner will have to use the microUSB connector, which becomes more and more obsolete every year. And it’s better not to look at the cameras at all - they have a disgusting resolution. But there is a tablet and dignity. Firstly, the display boasts ideal viewing angles. Secondly, the device is not without a 3.5 mm audio output. And it turned out to be very easy - the manufacturer just barely managed to reach the record.

A very light tablet computer, which is often taken with you on public transport. It is convenient to read not only books, but also some magazines on it, for which we should thank the slightly enlarged screen diagonal. Only not very wide viewing angles will spoil the impression. Alas, Samsung needed to achieve a minimum price tag, so it opted for a standard TFT panel. But on the other hand, he did not save on a connector for charging and synchronizing with a PC - a modern USB Type-C is mounted here. There is also a headphone jack. Just in case you haven't got a Bluetooth headset yet. The manufacturer did not forget about the slot for microSD. However, many buyers, judging by the reviews, have enough built-in storage. And only the amount of RAM here is not at all what we would like. It feels like Android 11 needs more.

The iPad needs no introduction. The case is aluminum.The IPS screen is slightly smaller than 8 inches - 7.85`, but the resolution is the same as that of the leader, which gives a higher pixel density. The picture quality is excellent. Watching videos, playing, drawing and just browsing the Internet is extremely pleasant. WiFi 802.11ac is supported, providing the highest Internet speed at the moment. Dimensions and weight of the device are not the best. With a smaller diagonal, the case is larger in all dimensions and almost 100 grams heavier. Yes, the battery capacity is larger here - 5124 mAh, but in video playback mode it lasts for 9 hours.

One of the best tablets for its price. Huawei has once again created an excellent budget model with a screen diagonal of 8 inches. The device looks beautiful, supports 4G, runs on the current Android 10. There is a catch, and it is important: the gadget does not work with Google services. If you are willing to put up with this shortcoming, then this tablet will definitely not disappoint you.For a modest amount of money, you get a great compact tablet with a good screen, fresh OS and long battery life. It has a powerful battery by the standards of 8-inch tablets. It is enough to actively use the gadget for its intended purpose for several evenings and not worry about the charge level.

In the segment of 8-inch tablets, Apple has no competitors. Once she squeezed everything possible out of MP3 players. Now it's happening in the small-screen tablet market as well. The next version of the iPad mini is head and shoulders above the products of other companies, even if you take the most affordable option, equipped with not the largest amount of memory. This tablet is built on a very powerful processor, so iPadOS and all applications literally fly. Also striking is the screen, which has a very high pixel density by the standards of such devices. Everything is in order here and with the sound. High-speed Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11ax standards are used to receive and transmit data.And it's one of the few tablets with a built-in fingerprint scanner. What more could you want? Higher screen refresh rate? More cameras? Certainly not less weight, since the device is already very light.

Under the slippery, as they say in the reviews, metal case, there is 4G LTE and a GPS module. The camera is endowed with five basic megapixels. There is also an event indicator. The tablet itself is perfectly assembled - a solid metal back panel without any gaps is connected to the rest of the shell. The owners swear at the lack of NFC (but this is a tablet from an inexpensive price segment), a soiled screen (like everyone else), a long charge (more than three hours to 100%, but it holds a charge for a surprisingly long time). The listed shortcomings do not make this model bad - they are just features that should be considered when choosing the best tablet for your tasks.

One of the coolest tablets from the "correct" China. Inside is the powerful "Dragon" of the 660th series, which with its eight high-frequency cores will satisfy even the most demanding user. To help the cores - 4 GB of RAM. The built-in memory in this modification is 64 GB, and those for whom this is not enough can connect a memory card. The tablet has thin frames, so its 8-inch diagonal fits easily in the palm of your hand and does not create discomfort when operating the gadget. The manufacturer even took care of the quality of photography in the tablet by installing a module with a resolution of 13 megapixels. According to users, this is the best inexpensive 8-inch tablet with decent hardware. And this seems to be true, especially since there are GPS and 4G modules here.

Solid and inexpensive tablet from China for 8 inches. It has a rather powerful filling: a processor from Huawei Kirin 710 for 8 cores with a frequency of 2200 MHz, 3 GB of RAM and 32 built-in. The screen is glossy with Full HD resolution. The main camera is good for a tablet - 13 megapixels.

When you turn it on for the first time, you will be greeted by the Android 9 interface, so if you are afraid that the OS will not be updated, then at least another year the software will be relevant anyway. This is one of the best tablets for daily tasks.

The nimble Apple A12 Bionic is responsible for the performance in this model, which in turn boasts a manufacturing process of only 7 nm. Thanks to this and optimization of the software, the battery with a capacity of 19.1 Wh lasts for a long time. The case is metal and pleasant to the touch. Pleasant little things: fifth-generation bluetooth, high screen resolution (2048x1536), support for Wi-Fi Direct. The reviews pay attention to the fact that the sound is not loud enough, and this despite the fact that stereo speakers are installed here. This is one of the best eight-inch options from the premium segment. It cannot be called inexpensive, but users say that the device beats its price with functionality and beauty.

A tablet from the budget series of the most famous Korean manufacturer. There are 2 GB of RAM, the 425th version of the processor from Snapdragon, 4G LTE, GPS and the ability to work in phone mode.The reviews sincerely admire the durable case - the gadget withstood more than one fall to the floor and remained intact.
