Affordable tablet gets price cut

The Honor Pad 10, a popular choice in the affordable tablet market, is now available at a significantly reduced price of 299.99 euros during Black Friday promotions at Boulanger, down from its original 499.99 euros. The promotion is part of an extended "Black Month" campaign that runs for an entire month.

Design and camera features

The tablet has a classic gray body with rounded corners and flat edges. While the back features two modules that suggest dual cameras, only one is actually present. The design is straightforward, focusing on functionality over novelty.

Display specifications

The Honor Pad 10 includes a 12.1-inch LCD TFT screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Its refresh rate ranges from 60 Hz to 120 Hz, and it achieves a peak brightness of 509 cd/m², which is adequate for everyday use but not ideal for professional color work due to its limited DCI-P3 color coverage of 69%.

Performance and software

The device runs on Android 15 with Magic OS 9.0, providing a smooth user experience. It is powered by a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chip and is suitable for tasks like watching series, browsing the internet, and using office software. It competes well with more expensive models like the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro, though its single 8 MP camera is not a strong selling point.

Battery life and charging

With a large 10,100 mAh battery, the Honor Pad 10 can last up to two days with typical use. However, a full charge using the included 35 W wired charger takes approximately two hours and 15 minutes. The extended Black Month promotions at Boulanger offer a range of deals, making it a good time for consumers to consider end-of-year purchases.
