What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the bright display, slim metal body, speakers and capable everyday performance, while seeing less headroom for demanding games than faster rivals. Battery findings differ sharply, with Expert Reviews reporting excellent endurance and MyNextTablet finding it disappointing. MyNextTablet also criticises the pen's latency and keyboard pairing, making those accessories less convincing for sustained work.
