What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.4 for now.
Share: Reviews count 25% of the overall score.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Alldocube Kido 8

  • The screen is 8 inches, which is easy to hold for long reading.
  • The 1280×800 screen at 189 ppi is sharp enough for books.
  • Wi-Fi works on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
  • GPS lets it find its place on a map.
  • Split-screen mode lets two apps share the display.
  • The USB Type-C port uses the same cable as many phones.

What customers don't like about Alldocube Kido 8

  • At 8 inches the screen is small for watching films with others.
  • No gyroscope, so tilt-based games and motion controls will not work.
  • No ambient light sensor, so brightness must be set by hand.
  • USB 2.0 makes file transfers slow.
  • Software updates are supported for only a short time.

Verdict

If you want something to read in bed, the Alldocube Kido 8 is small enough to hold in one hand. The screen runs at 1280×800 and 189 ppi, which is sharp enough for books and web pages. The 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of eMMC storage are modest, and the 800 MHz RAM is slow, so heavy apps will feel sluggish. Charging at 10 W is slow, and the 60 Hz screen scrolls less smoothly than faster ones. The bigger gap is in the extras: no gyroscope, no ambient light sensor, no keyboard and no offline voice recognition. Software updates are supported for a short time only. It suits someone who wants a light tablet for books, video and simple browsing, and who does not mind a basic set of features.
