What customers like about TCL Tab 10 Gen 4

  • Battery life of 9 hours covers a long day of use.
  • The 1920×1200 screen shows enough detail for video and reading.
  • An anti-reflection coating cuts glare from windows and lamps.
  • It is designed for kids and includes app tracking protection.
  • 128 GB of storage leaves room for apps, games and videos.
  • USB-C charging uses a common cable.

What customers don't like about TCL Tab 10 Gen 4

  • Peak brightness of 350 nits makes the screen hard to read in bright sun.
  • Update support is short, so the tablet will get updates for a limited time.
  • There is no panorama mode in the camera.
  • 4 GB RAM limits heavy apps and multitasking.
  • The main camera records 1080p video at 30 fps only.

Verdict

A budget tablet for a child or a light user at home, the TCL Tab 10 Gen 4 is an easy pick. Its 10.1-inch screen has 1920×1200 pixels and an anti-reflection coating, which helps when sunlight hits it. The 6000 mAh battery lasts 9 hours, and it charges over USB-C. It is designed for kids, and app tracking protection is included. The screen is dim, with 350 nits of peak brightness, so it is hard to read outdoors in bright sun. Performance is modest, with 4 GB RAM, so it suits video, reading and simple apps rather than heavy multitasking. Updates come for a short time only, and there is no panorama mode. It suits a parent who wants a simple tablet for a child and does not need a bright screen.
