Verdict

The Honor Pad X8 is a budget-friendly 10.1-inch tablet featuring a Fullview IPS display with 1920 x 1200 resolution and an 80% screen-to-body ratio. This specific WiFi-only model is equipped with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage (expandable up to 512GB via microSD), and is powered by a MediaTek MT8786 octa-core processor running Magic UI 6.1 based on Android 12. Its primary advantages include a sleek 7.55mm aluminum unibody design weighing just 460g, immersive 1620 large-amplitude dual speakers with HONOR Histen tuning, and TÜV Rheinland-certified eye protection with a dedicated E-book mode. However, users should note its relatively limited base storage, the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack, and performance that may struggle with graphically intensive gaming.
