What we like about Tesco Hudl 1 WiFi (1GB + 16GB)

  • Extremely affordable price point, especially when purchased with Tesco Clubcard vouchers
  • Sturdy and durable 'chunky' build quality, making it suitable for children
  • Includes a microSD card slot for expandable storage up to 32GB
  • Features a Micro-HDMI port for easy connection to a TV
  • Decent stereo speakers that provide clear sound for its class
  • User-friendly for beginners due to pre-installed Tesco guides and stock Android experience

What we don't like about Tesco Hudl 1 WiFi (1GB + 16GB)

  • Sluggish overall performance with noticeable lag during app switching and multitasking
  • Poor camera quality; both front and rear cameras produce grainy, low-detail images
  • Display suffers from poor color reproduction, narrow viewing angles, and a 'washed-out' look
  • Battery life is mediocre, often falling short of the claimed 9 hours during heavy use
  • Official software support has been withdrawn, leading to 'bricking' issues if factory reset
  • The screen is highly prone to fingerprints and smudges
  • Known security vulnerability involving data recovery even after a factory reset

Verdict

The Tesco Hudl 1 is a budget-friendly 7-inch tablet featuring a 1440 x 900 HD IPS display (242 ppi) and a 1.5GHz quad-core processor paired with 1GB of RAM. It runs on a near-stock version of Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean and includes 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable up to 48GB via a microSD slot. Key characteristics include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, a micro-HDMI port for TV output, and a durable soft-touch plastic chassis available in multiple colours. Main pros include its highly competitive price point, solid build quality suitable for families, and the inclusion of expandable storage and HDMI connectivity rarely found in its class. However, notable cons include a display that can appear washed out with low brightness in sunlight, mediocre 3MP rear and 2MP front cameras, and occasional performance lag during intensive multitasking.
