Verdict

The Honor Pad X8 LTE is a sleek, entry-level 10.1-inch tablet featuring a FullView IPS display with 1920x1200 resolution and an 80% screen-to-body ratio. This specific configuration is powered by a MediaTek MT8786 octa-core processor paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD up to 512GB. Its main pros include a premium 93% aluminum unibody design that is just 7.55mm thin, immersive dual high-amplitude speakers with HONOR Histen tuning, and TÜV Rheinland-certified eye protection for comfortable long-term viewing. However, notable cons include its modest 5,100 mAh battery life, relatively weak gaming performance for intensive 3D titles, and the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
