Verdict

The Honor Pad X8 Lite (3GB + 32GB) is an entry-level 9.7-inch tablet featuring an IPS LCD with a 1280 x 800 resolution and a slim 7.55mm aluminium unibody weighing 460g. It is powered by a MediaTek MT8786 octa-core processor and a 5,100 mAh battery, running Android 12 with Magic UI 6.1. Main pros include its portable, lightweight design, immersive dual-speaker system with Honor Histen tuning, and eye-comfort features like TÜV Rheinland low blue light certification.
