Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 SM-T295 32Gb

Rating: 5.0

If you have only 10 thousand rubles at your disposal, then it is better to look for a tablet with a fairly small display. For example, you can buy the Samsung Galaxy Tab A with an 8-inch screen – this device will delight you with both lightness and high pixel density. The resolution of 1280×800 pixels at this diagonal allows you to enjoy viewing pictures and videos. To create the first, you can use the built-in camera, because its resolution has been brought to 8 megapixels!

Two color versions of this 'pill' are on sale. Whichever version you choose, expect to get Android 9.0 on board. You will only think about a fresher 'green robot' in a few years. The gadget also received 32 GB of permanent memory. The manufacturer saved on 'RAM'. Alas, only 2 GB are built into the tablet. This imposes certain restrictions on multitasking. But what do you want with such and such a price tag?

It so happened that the tablets that open our rating are capable of boasting a SIM card slot. So the variant of Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 we are considering can also interact with the global web via LTE networks. Also among the wireless modules present here are Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.2. The GPS chip is not forgotten, of course.

Of course, such a small tablet could not be heavy. The weight of this model is only 347 g. Such a device can be held in hands for a long time, watching a movie or a long video on YouTube. Interestingly, the South Koreans have endowed the relatively light tablet computer with a capacious battery. It is unlikely that you will charge the device more often than once every couple of days.

Advantages

• Has a pre-installed child mode;
• There is a 3.5mm audio jack;
• The latest version is installed Android;
• Decent amount of permanent memory;
• CPU clock speed increased to 2 GHz;
• Two body colors to choose from;
• Implemented support for LTE;
• Really good rear camera;
• The battery capacity is 5100 mAh.

disadvantages

• Little RAM;
• The screen gets scratched quickly;
• Comes with a weak charger.

Lenovo Tab E10 TB-X104L 3Gb 32Gb

Rating: 4.9

One of the most powerful tablets in our roundup. This “tablet” includes 3 GB of RAM, providing instant switching between running applications. For storage of media files 32 GB are intended. Of course, this will not be enough for all films and even music, so we recommend that you immediately stock up on a memory card.

Outwardly, the device is nothing special. It is felt that the manufacturer tried in every possible way to save money. A very wide screen bezel is still used here. As for the display itself, its diagonal is 10.1 inches. This means that the 'tablet' turned out to be quite large. You will think ten times about whether it is worth taking it with you on any trip. The screen resolution is 1280×800 pixels. I would like more, but we are talking exclusively about inexpensive tablets … Note that the display was created using IPS technology, so it is impossible to find fault with viewing angles.

The functionality of the device is provided by the operating system Android 8.1. I must say that it barely has enough of the capacities that the quad-core processor from Qualcomm provides. However, you will only notice this if you install games on your tablet. Applications work without any problems, which is good news.

Most of the time Lenovo Tab E10 will be used at home. But if you go somewhere, you can use the SIM card slot. In this case, it will be possible to access the Internet via LTE networks. Also, the tablet has a wireless module Bluetooth 4.0. It is thanks to him that the corresponding headset is connected. There is also a 3.5mm jack for wired headphones. Also on the body of the tablet is a micro-USB port used for charging and synchronizing with a PC.

It should be noted that this model turned out to be very heavy. Now, not everyone wants to use the 546-gram device on an ongoing basis. And certainly no one wants to use it for photography, because the resolution of the camera installed here is only 5 megapixels.

If we talk about the battery life, then we do not recommend counting on records. Inside the device is a 4850mAh battery. In most cases, it requires plugging in the network adapter every couple of days. The only sad thing is that the charging will be quite long, for the sake of economy, the manufacturer had to abandon the introduction of technologies that greatly accelerate the process.

Advantages

• There is an FM radio;
• Decent amount of memory;
• Maximum viewing angles;
• Data transmission over LTE networks is possible;
• The audio jack is not forgotten.

disadvantages

• Not sold everywhere for adequate money;
• Not a very powerful processor;
• Low screen resolution;
• Micro-USB connector is used;
• Great weight.

Huawei MediaPad T3 10 16Gb LTE

Rating: 4.8

Many visitors are unaware that the Chinese company Huawei produces more than smartphones. In its assortment there are also quite good tablets. Many of them cost quite a lot of money, competing with products under more eminent brands. However, you can find on store shelves and offers for people who are not ready to part with a huge amount. For example, for MediaPad T3 10 they ask about 10 thousand rubles.

This tablet computer has an IPS display with a diagonal of 9.6 inches. Its resolution is 1280×800 pixels. This parameter can be called the standard for such inexpensive 'pills'. The image is clearly visible from any angle; when watching a video, it is accompanied by a good sound coming from a single speaker.

The operating system is Android 7.0. The work of the “green robot” is provided by the Snapdragon 425 processor, the clock frequency of which does not exceed 1400 MHz. And if the chipset hardly bothers you, you can't say the same about memory. 2 GB of 'RAM' is not what you expect from such a device. Also, the user will not be able to install a large number of applications, since there are only 16 GB of permanent memory. The microSD card does not help, since it mostly only serves to store media files.

To interact with the global web, Wi-Fi and an LTE module are used here. There is also Bluetooth 4.0 here. But many tablet owners will forget about it, instead a 3.5 mm audio jack will be used. As for the charging socket, it has a built-in micro-USB.

Surprisingly, this tablet is not so heavy, the scales under it will show 460 g. And this with the battery, the capacity of which is brought to 4800 mAh! It remains to add that the body of the product is made of metal, and in the package with the 'tablet' there is no QWERTY keyboard, no cover, or other frills.

Advantages

• Metal body;
• Two colors to choose from;
• Wide viewing angles;
• There is support for LTE;
• The audio jack is not forgotten.

disadvantages

• A micro-USB socket is used;
• Little RAM and permanent memory;
• Display resolution is not very high;
• Quiet sound over headphones.

Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 2Gb 16Gb 4G

Rating: 4.7

A very interesting inexpensive tablet is also available in the assortment of the Chinese company Lenovo. If many competitors are very similar to each other, then this model has a distinctive feature in the form of a built-in stand. It allows you to work much more comfortably with your tablet computer when you are at a desk. The rounded end at the top of the device is also noteworthy. It is made to fit the camera lens on it. This module rotates easily, making it easy to convert from rear to front. The camera resolution is 8 megapixels, in this respect the device will hardly surprise.

This device appeared on store shelves not yesterday. In this regard, it is not surprising that a very old processor is used here. Also, someone will be bothered by the operating system Android 5.1, because now tablets with a noticeably more recent version of the 'green robot' are being sold with might and main. Finally, one cannot fail to note the limited amount of memory – 16 GB of ROM and 2 GB of RAM are waiting for the user. I am glad that at least the microSD card slot has not been forgotten, without it it would be absolutely bad.

The image is displayed here on an 8-inch display made using IPS technology. The screen resolution is 1280×800 pixels. The frame is very wide. In a word, everything is standard, a rare budget tablet can boast a more interesting display.

This model includes several wireless modules. The most important of these is Wi-Fi. Also, the owner of the tablet has the ability to install a SIM card, after which data transmission via LTE networks will become available. Well, to connect a wireless headset, Bluetooth 4.0 is used. But much more often, a 3.5 mm audio jack will be used instead, because the owners of budget 'tablets' usually have only wired headphones. However, why use such accessories at all? The device from Lenovo sounds good in itself, because it has stereo speakers!

As for the battery, its capacity has been increased to 6200 mAh. This should be enough for a couple of tens of hours of operation in a very intensive operation. The charger is connected via a micro-USB port. It is curious that despite the very large dimensions, the tablet still did not become record heavy – its weight is 420 g.

Advantages

• Decent battery life
• Nice rotating camera;
• Wide viewing angles;
• There is support for LTE;
• Built-in stereo speakers;
• Not forgotten is the 3.5mm audio jack.

disadvantages

• In some cases, the shape of the tablet will be inconvenient;
• Very little memory;
• Old version of the operating system;
• Weak processor;
• Built-in micro-USB connector.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 SM-T285 8Gb

Rating: 4.6

What do you do if you want to buy a device for reading e-books, but so that its functionality is not completely flawed? Take a look at the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0. This is a compact device that is much better than any e-book reader. The front panel of this 'tablet' houses a display with a diagonal not exceeding 7 inches. The screen resolution is 1280×800 pixels. If you do some simple calculations, it turns out that there are 216 pixels for every inch of this LCD. Not a bad result! The only pity is that the screen is not capable of boasting maximum viewing angles. However, the distortions are not particularly noticeable, so they shouldn't bother you.

This model has been developed for a long time. In this regard, it should not be surprising that the operating system is used here Android 5.1. This means that the buyer does not need to expect extremely broad functionality from the tablet. For example, this is not the best choice for those who want to regularly run two applications at the same time by dragging and dropping something from one to the other. A very weak processor, which is the Spreadtrum SC9830A, would not allow this function to be implemented.

This tablet is best suited for surfing the Internet. For this purpose, LTE and Wi-Fi modules are used here. Also, the gadget has a 'blue tooth' of the fourth version. The manufacturer has not forgotten the 3.5 mm jack to which wired headphones are connected.

The main disadvantage of the device is the lack of memory. If 1.5 GB of RAM is only strained, then 8 GB of built-in storage is forced to grab your head. Alas, with such a volume, you can forget about installing any large number of applications.

You can find fault with the cameras. But many budget tablets have the exact same 5MP rear camera, so there's no need to blame the manufacturer. If we talk about the battery, then its capacity is 4000 mAh. The battery life will be average, nothing more. But on the other hand, the “tablet” turned out to be very light – its weight is only 274 g. Samsung managed to achieve this, among other things, due to the plastic case.

Advantages

• Decent display resolution;
• There is a 3.5mm audio jack;
• Implemented support for LTE;
• There is an FM radio;
• Very light weight;
• Compact dimensions.

disadvantages

• Micro-USB connector is used;
• Not the most recent version of the OS installed;
• Very little RAM and persistent memory;
• Opening hours will not be record-breaking.

Lenovo Tab 4 TB-8504X 16Gb

Rating: 4.5

This tablet is available in two colors. Its front panel houses an 8-inch display with a traditionally wide bezel. You can easily guess what resolution the screen installed here has received. As for the manufacturing technology, the choice of the manufacturer fell on IPS, which allows you to count on the maximum viewing angles.

The tablet is based on a good processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 425. Its four cores are capable of operating at 1400 MHz. Also under the 'tablet' are 16 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM. The volume is small, but it is quite possible to live with it, especially if you do not strive to install every free application here.

Interaction with the global web is provided by Wi-Fi and LTE wireless modules. It is curious that the gadget has got two slots for SIM-cards! Well, to connect a headset, either a 3.5 mm jack or Bluetooth 4.0 will be used. I am glad that the tablet sounds pretty good even without them, for which one should thank the high-quality stereo speakers.

Otherwise, this is a typical budget device. The capacity of its battery has been increased to 4850 mAh, which should allow not to touch the charger for one and a half to two days. Of course, the micro-USB connector is still used here. Therefore, you will have to come to terms with the fact that the plug will often be inserted only the second time. Well, it should be noted that the weight is only 310 g. This is definitely one of the lightest representatives of our review. However, what else could you expect from a tablet computer with a plastic case?

Advantages

• The built-in is not the weakest processor;
• Two body colors to choose from;
• Small size and weight;
• There is support for LTE networks;
• Not forgotten 3.5mm audio jack;
• Built-in stereo speakers;
• There is an FM radio;
• Decent battery life
• Maximum viewing angles.

disadvantages

• I would like more memory;
• Very mediocre cameras;
• Long charging;
• After the OS update, freezes begin.

Haier HV103H

Rating: 4.5

Our rating could not do without a tablet computer sold with a QWERTY keyboard. Usually such devices are very expensive, but for Haier HV103H they ask for only 10-12 thousand rubles. This tablet has decent performance. However, there is one pitfall here: the device operates under control Windows 10. And we all know how voracious this system is.

This tablet is built on the basis of the Intel Atom x5 Z8350. It is a modest quad-core processor, clocked at just 1440 MHz. In this regard, you can not count on the launch of any advanced software. However, there is simply no place for him here. The fact is that only 64 GB of permanent memory is built into the tablet computer from Haier. And most of this space is occupied by the operating system itself. Some programs will also complain about the RAM, which is only 2 GB.

Let's move on to the positive aspects of the tablet though. These include a 10.1-inch display. It was created using IPS technology, and its resolution is 1280×800 pixels. The picture is clearly visible from any angle, color distortions are invisible. If necessary, you can connect a wireless headset to the device, for which Bluetooth 4.0 is used. The product also has a 3.5 mm jack – in case you only have standard headphones. Well, to access the Internet, a Wi-Fi module is used. Also, the tablet computer received a micro-HDMI jack. It is useful if you want to display the picture on a larger screen.

If we talk about the QWERTY-keyboard, then it leaves behind a positive impression. Of course, it is not very large, but all its buttons are pressed as softly as possible. But nothing good can be said about the cameras. A VGA-module is intended for video communication, which produces a disgusting picture, while the rear camera has a resolution of 2 megapixels. The sound is also sad – only one speaker is installed here. And the battery life of this model is not very long, despite the increase in the battery capacity up to 6000 mAh. By the way, the weight of a tablet with a QWERTY keyboard is very close to a kilogram!

Advantages

• A full-fledged OS is used Windows 10;
• Comes with a QWERTY keyboard;
• Maximum viewing angles;
• There is a full-size USB socket;
• You can display the image on the monitor;
• Not forgotten is the 3.5mm audio jack.

disadvantages

• Little memory;
• Disgusting cameras;
• No SIM card slot;
• Very heavy weight;
• The working time cannot be called particularly long.

Digma CITI 1508 4G

Rating: 4.4

Must be one of the most advanced tablets in our collection. But why, then, is he at the end? The fact is that finding this device on sale is quite a challenge. The easiest way to buy this model is in a second-hand form, since its production has been discontinued for a long time, and stocks have been exhausted.

To begin with, the 10.1-inch display installed here has a resolution of 1920×1200 pixels. An impressive setting, with it you will definitely not see the pixelation effect. The screen was created using IPS technology, so you can count on the maximum viewing angles.

Outwardly, a tablet computer is nothing special. It has the usual shape, the plastic body is painted black. The rear panel hides just one speaker – a familiar feature of most budget 'tablets'. As for the front panel, the buyer is expected to have very wide frames around the screen.

The operation of this device is provided by a simple quad-core processor MediaTek MT8735. But if the chipset does not evoke a feeling of delight, then the same cannot be said about memory. There are no problems with multitasking here, since 3 GB of RAM are hidden under the body of the device. Also, the gadget received 64 GB of built-in storage. With such a capacity, you can not insert a microSD card!

Digma CITI 1508 4G appeared on store shelves for a long time. Therefore, don't be surprised that Android 6.0 is used here. This is another factor that you can only put up with. Through the operating system and numerous applications, you can easily access the Internet. Even LTE networks are supported here! Also included in the number of wireless modules present is Bluetooth 4.0. Includes the device and a 3.5mm audio jack, which some people consider to be much more important. Well, the micro-USB port is used to connect the charger.

The buyer will certainly be pleased with the battery installed here. Its capacity has been brought up to a decent 6000 mAh. This means that in case of not very active operation, the connection of the charger will be required quite rarely. But because of such a battery, the weight has increased to 490 g. This makes the Digma CITI 1508 4G not the best choice to take it with you on the subway.

Advantages

• Large amount of memory;
• High resolution display;
• Maximum viewing angles;
• Implemented support for LTE;
• Not forgotten 3.5mm 'jack';
• Long battery life.

disadvantages

• The simplest cameras;
• Not the most recent version of the operating system;
• Not a very powerful processor;
• Difficult to find on sale;
• A micro-USB socket is used;
• Large weight;
• Comes with a weak AC adapter.

Prestigio Grace PMT7781D 4G

Rating: 4.3

This tablet is sold in Russian stores for only 7 thousand rubles. At the same time, there is an excellent IPS-display on the front panel of the device, the resolution of which is 1920×1200 pixels! Need to take? Not everything is so simple!

To process a picture with the above resolution, good processing power is required. Unfortunately, the quad-core processor installed here is not capable of providing it. This means that the user will experience severe slowdowns from time to time. Also under the body of the gadget are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. It's quite possible to come to terms with this volume, especially if you have a microSD card at your disposal.

Prestigio Grace PMT7781D 4G is not a novelty. However, this is also not a stale product, as evidenced by the presence of the operating system here Android 8.1. It allows you to use messengers, a browser, and other applications that can access the Internet. You can interact with the global web even outside your home or office, as there is an LTE module. Also, the device is allowed to be used as a cell phone. You can use the built-in speaker and microphone for conversation. However, it is much easier to talk with headphones. If they are wired, then they are connected via a 3.5 mm audio jack. If you have a wireless accessory at your disposal, all that remains is to activate it in the settings Bluetooth 4.0.

A 4800 mAh battery is hidden under the metal body of the tablet. No one will argue with the fact that with such a screen resolution and a not particularly energy efficient processor, a charger will be required every evening. This is, of course, with active use. The cord is connected to the micro-USB connector. Waiting for a more convenient USB Type-C in such a cheap tablet would be silly.

It remains to tell about the cameras. And they are nothing special here. Their resolution is 5 and 2 megapixels. It is better to forget about their existence, then they will not spoil your mood.

Advantages

• Metal body;
• There is a 3.5mm audio jack;
• Implemented support for LTE;
• High screen resolution;
• Maximum viewing angles;
• The latest version of the operating system;
• Very low cost.

disadvantages

• Very heavy weight;
• Micro-USB connector is used;
• Bad cameras;
• I would like more memory;
• Weak processor.

Digma Platina 1579M

Rating: 4.2

Another tablet with a familiar look and feel. It has a 10.1-inch display surrounded by a very wide bezel. The rear panel is home to a lonely camera lens, under which is a tiny flash. It may seem that the internal components will not be admired either. However, the device is still able to please with something. It is not for nothing that they are asking for 10 thousand rubles for it, and not a smaller amount.

First of all, 32 GB of permanent memory should be noted. This is a very decent volume, which is enough to install a very large number of applications. Secondly, the product operates with Android 8.1, which is far from the oldest version of the operating system. Thirdly, the screen resolution was brought up to 1920×1200 pixels. This setting is ideal for watching movies and videos on YouTube. Well, we must not forget that the display is made using IPS technology, which significantly increases the viewing angles.

Of course, there were also some drawbacks. And they will even frighten someone. For example, not everyone will like the 540 gram weight brought by the metal body and the 5,000 mAh battery. Also, the micro-USB connector is traditionally used here, which is not the most convenient. We don't need to talk about cameras, they have a resolution of 5 and 2 megapixels. But most of all, the almost useless SIM card slot grieves. The fact is that when you install it, only 3G networks that are not very fast will become available. Therefore, it is better to use Wi-Fi to access the Internet. Nothing good can be said about the processor, which is installed as MediaTek MT8735. However, its capacity is still quite enough to solve most simple tasks.

Advantages

• The latest version of the operating system;
• Large amount of permanent memory;
• High resolution display;
• Good viewing angles;
• Operation in cell phone mode is possible;
• There is an FM radio;
• There is a 3.5mm audio jack;
• Metal body.

disadvantages

• The simplest cameras;
• Weak processor;
• No LTE support;
• Large weight;
• Built-in micro-USB connector.

BQ 1085L

Rating: 4.1

One of the cheapest tablet computers in our selection. They ask for about 6-7 thousand rubles. Not bad! Especially if you pay attention to the fact that this is a very large device equipped with a 10.1-inch screen. However, it turned out to be such a successful gadget that it was literally swept off the store shelves. At the time of writing this review, it is not available in most online retailers. If you have a desire to purchase BQ 1085L, you will have to look for this model in free classifieds services.

One would assume that such an inexpensive tablet will receive a TFT display. But no, it uses an IPS panel that can boast of maximum viewing angles. Its resolution is 1280×800 pixels. The operating system is responsible for what is happening on the screen Android 8.1. It is helped by a quad-core processor from Spreadtrum, clocked at 1.4 GHz. Somewhere nearby there are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. The volume of the latter can be expanded using a microSD card.

The tablet can be paired with a wireless headset, this connection is provided by Bluetooth 4.2. However, it is often much easier to connect ordinary headphones, because there is also a 3.5 mm audio jack. There is also a micro-USB port on the case, most often used for charging. Energy from the corresponding adapter goes to the 4700 mAh battery. The indicator is not the most outrageous, but for some reason it brought the weight of the tablet to a decent 510 g.

Like many other members of this collection, BQ 1085L received an LTE module at its disposal. The similarity is noticeable in terms of cameras – here they have a resolution of 5 and 2 megapixels.

Advantages

• There is a 3.5mm audio jack;
• There is support for LTE;
• The latest version of the operating system;
• Maximum viewing angles;
• Very low cost.

disadvantages

• Unpretentious cameras;
• Very heavy weight;
• Micro-USB connector is used;
• Now rarely found on sale;
• Very little memory;
• Not the highest display resolution.

Conclusion

Now you know which tablet computers you should pay attention to if you have only 10 thousand rubles at your disposal. We advise you to buy something from the first half of the list. The rest of the models are given as an example only as a last resort; you should definitely not expect any perfect work from them.
