Verdict

The Blackview Tab 8 WiFi is an entry-level 10.1-inch tablet featuring a 1280x800 HD+ IPS display, a quad-core Rockchip RK3566 processor, and a significant 128GB of internal storage that is expandable up to 1TB via microSD. It is equipped with 4GB of physical RAM—expandable by an additional 3GB of virtual memory—and runs on DokeOS_P 3.0 based on Android 12. Key advantages include modern WiFi 6 connectivity for faster internet speeds, a slim 9.9mm lightweight design, and a 6580mAh battery providing up to 14.5 hours of music playback. However, its main drawbacks include a relatively slow 10W charging speed, modest camera performance (13MP rear/8MP front), and performance limitations that make it unsuitable for high-end gaming or heavy multitasking.
