Many years ago, at least 5 or 6, I bought an RCA 10" tablet at Walmart for around $150. The guy at the counter in electronics said I would really like it. He was right. I have been using it every day for over an hour to read the news and it has been excellent. Websites load and scroll quickly. Display quality excellent for the purpose. I don't game or do anything else that might be CPU intensive. Lately, I am beginning to think the battery may be getting weak as it doesn't seem to last as long and seems to take longer to charge fully. I presume that is to be expected with these devices. I never thought of RCA as a brand for computing devices like tablets (they last made computers in the 60's) but this has been a winner for an economy tab.

I got one on Aliexpress a few weeks back for around 160 dollars (120 on sale + 40 for import fees) which is around 840 reais in Brazil's currency. There isn't anything better in Brazil for this price right now, so it was a good deal for me! I'm enjoying the tablet's performance overall, even though the screen is lackluster indeed (I bought it knowing it wasn't gonna be great haha). Anyway, great video! Love your channel and I think it's the first time you're reviewing something I actually own! 😁

Hey after a year using a table do you still recomend buy this ?

Love to see this. Been looking for inexpensive cellular solutions.

I got this for my little boy back in January, perfect for him and its pretty good for the price.

I have this tablet, I like it. The screen doesn't bother me. For the price, it performs well, good storage, and hardly any bloatware.

Hello from the UK . Excellent review , although I'm not a very technical person , it helped me to get a better idea of this device . I currently own a P20 HD made by teclast . And I have to say it's been really good so far . It's handled a year or so of Netflix , emails , Facebook , KZread etc . But it coming to a point where I want to get something newer , & with a little better spec , but not pay a fortune out . I keep seeing Samsung and iPad pushed , but if I even look at a device which is 4g enabled , then I'm looking at about £780 . I need for 4g , as I'm living on a boat , so simply having a wifi only device isn't an option . I was looking at the teclast t50 launch , but having seen a single place online in the UK which stocks it , I also haven't seen any real reviews of it either . So it leaves me wondering if it is equipped with the same level of screen this device I equipped with , which would be much of an upgrade for me . Could you recommend any other devices which have decent specs , but aren't going to ask close to the £780-1000 mark ? I don't mind paying closer to £450 is it's a justified spend . The draw o the teclast ,is it's so cheap if it goes wrong , you simply buy another device .

Love your channel ❤️

I bought the Teclast T8 in 2018, it has been from one issue to the other. first, it was the touchpad, then sometimes it reboots on it"s own. You can imagine doing something and all of a sudden your tablet just goes off on its own and switches on again. Saying that I'm disappointed is an understatement. Finally, the battery got swollen and pushed up the screen. The reason I bought it then was that I needed a Tablet with a good storage capacity and at the same time not too expensive but unfortunately, it was not one of the best decisions I have ever made.

The tablet market really seems to be affected by the chip shortage. Same like the SBC market. There seems to be no progression in technical specs the last year. I noticed while scrolling on eShops. And Monitors seem to have become really expensive!

Good review as always. How about adding some gameplay with the Moonlight app? I have this on my ROG Phone and shield tablet and it works flawless even on 4G cellular network.

Don't worry ETA, they're gonna release the T40 which is basically this tablet with a better screen. Also, they're gonna make a 5G model T40 with an even stronger unisoc chip (strong in terms of unisoc lineup). Hopefully you can review those, and of course EMULATION TESTS!

I used to have a Teclast P10HD tablet that was pretty good for the price. I got it for around 110 dollars. The screen wasn't very bright, but it had about 94%sRGB and I think it was fully laminated. I traded it in for an Amazon Fire HD because I really wanted Widevine L1 support. Otherwise, it was a nice tablet.

3:33 Agree so much its annoying the way they change that just to make it more cumbersome smh.....

I own the T10 and T30 and the build quality and screen on the T10 was probably the best the ever had. The T30 performance is probably similar to the M40 which is very good for the price but I think I'll go with a higher end tablet next upgrade... In like 5 years!

It would be helpful if, when you display benchmark figures, you would also provide a few other numbers from a few other comparable platforms. Otherwise, it's really difficult to make sense if the absolute score displayed on screen is "good" or not.

Yeah that screen would do it for me, I think I’d rather have lower specs but a better screen.

Already bought the Lenovo Tab P11. Best investment this year. Quad speakers all the way.

Hello will you be doing a hands on review on the teclast m40 pro ?

I gave my buddy a super old Teclast tablet, it barely ran. He was unhappy with it even for free LOL I warned him before he offered to take it. Can't recall the specs but it was super early in the tablet days, was like 125 bones, heavy white plastic housing.

Hey Prime, can you by any chance tell me if Magic the Gathering Arena is available on this?

I have been looking into these tablets.. Very well prices and so far I know ... no fake / spoof software 😎👌

i grabed samsung chromebook and im loving it... im thinking if its an deal change from samsung to lenovo 300e chromebook that has gain on touch screen and IPS screen instead of TN

I have this and I think the screen is fine, but whatever protective layer that is on top of it scratches easily and it just ruins the display.

Nice tablet and nice video and why don't you try new pipe instead of KZread anyway nice video again awsome

Seems decent, how does it compare to Vankyo which is Octa-core as well. I have several of the Vankyo’s and was a bit disappointed in their gaming performance. This one seems to have a bit faster cpu, 1.6 vs 2.0, not sure if that makes a big difference or not.

@grape1829

3 жыл бұрын

Try comparing the benchmark scores on ETA's videos. This one probably blasts the Vankyo you're looking at. But you know what, it really depends on your budget. The Amazon Fire Tab 10 inch (2019) is the only that is decent on all fronts (except for the camera which sucks on all of these) and is maybe even the cheapest of them all. They were sold for like $67 last month to get rid of inventory so there are still people selling them on eBay for just over $100. The new version for 2021 is available on Amazon for $150. Not sure when they're going to have their first big sale on them. The big killer on these budget Chinese tablets is usually at least one of the following: 1) crappy crappy screen, 2) crappy crappy CPU, 3) crappy crappy speakers, and 4) no Widevine DRM (which means you can only watch 480p on Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO Go, etc). There are also very few or zero aftermarket batteries or screen protectors. The Amazon Fire Tabs with at least 2GB RAM should be decent on all of these fronts.

Thinking of doing a bartop arcade , thinking of putting a mini pc in it. Would like upto gamecube, maybe ps2, any ideas what gen, chip to go for?

Strange that it doesn't allow 4k options on the M40 for KZread, as I'm using a Teclast M20 right now and it can display 4K but usually drops frames/runs choppy. At least the M40 has Android 10..

Sorry but you got the specs wrong at 1:57. That Unisoc chipset uses 2x A75 (not 2x A72) + 6x A55 making it about as fast as the Helio G70/G80.

The same SOC is in the Alldocube iPlay40, which you reviewed, but it has a better screen, more RAM and it is in the same price range.

Now listed on Amazon for $210. Typical. I've seen the more expensive items I've bought go up in price immediately after I buy one. I'm sure it's a price/demand algorithm at work.
