Editorial note

The TCL TAB 8 tablet stands out with its 8-inch screen featuring a resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels, providing a pleasant visual experience for watching videos and reading documents. Its lightweight and compact design, weighing 295 g, makes it easy to handle and transport, which is an advantage for users often on the go. Additionally, its MediaTek MT8766B processor at 2 GHz with 4 cores ensures smooth performance for basic tasks and good durability thanks to its nickel-metal hybrid battery. However, the internal memory of only 2 GB may limit multitasking, leading to slowdowns when using multiple applications simultaneously. While the screen is sufficient for daily use, its resolution may seem inadequate for those seeking superior display quality, especially for watching videos or gaming. Furthermore, the internal storage capacity of 32 GB, although expandable via a microSD card, can quickly become insufficient for users needing to store numerous multimedia files. In terms of connectivity, the presence of 4G and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) is a positive point, but the presence of a single built-in speaker limits the audio experience, making listening less immersive. Finally, the charging time of 5.5 hours may be perceived as long for users needing a quick recharge. Overall, the TCL TAB 8 offers a decent value for money, but its limitations in memory and storage may disappoint those looking for more performance.
