Got this because the missus’ quite old Amazon tablet was past it’s best. Can’t complain, the missus loves it. Great picture and sound, no headphone jack (she prefers wired ones, God knows why) but got her using wireless ones.
I’ve been using this tablet for a bit of gaming and surfing the web. The screen quality is great and the tablet is very fast but some of the shortcuts are complicated and you end up taking a screenshot without realising. Still a solid 5 star though its great quality.
PROS
1. Very similar size to an iPad…see my photo comparison
2. Priced affordablly , I picked it up for 159 during Black Friday offer.
3. Runs all apps as can be found on Google play store which is already installed.
4. You can buy a stylus and use it to write on your screen, just install a suitable writing app.
CONS
1 minor con is that if you are used to using the writing app on Apple called Goodnotes, the developers haven’t enabled it yet for the tablet. I’m sure there are alternatives but this is not the fault of Honour.
TIP:
To make it easy for you to turn on the tablet without having to press the ON button, do the following and you’ll love it.
Go to Settings > Accessibility features > Shortcuts & gestures > Wake screen , and enable Raise to wake or Double-tap to wake. I selected the latter – watch my video.
I highly recommend this tablet. Just buy yourself a nice cover/case to go with it and you are laughing.
The tablet has good battery life the screen is bright indoor
And viewable outdoor but not as bright as modern phones
The sound speakers are very clear could be a little more loud but seems to be perfect so far
Only thing that is poor on the item is the cameras I don’t use them for anything but face unlock but the rear seems to be very basic.
The screen is LCD and you can see a little back light on the black bars on films but for the price it’s unbeaten.
Only Mled and oled screens stop this but are very expensive.
It’s movies steaming and work/internet browsing it’s perfect.
Probably would struggle with call of duty but I only play that on a PC.
Running Android 13 is excellent for a budget tablet added to that you get a 11.5 inch screen with great quality picture run YouTube no problem and outputs the video to my Sony TV without an signs degradation to picture quality.
I can highly recommend this Honor Tab X9 I myself have galaxy S7 and pound for pound its as good.
You do need to get a case though just to protect it.
When I compare this tablet to a Samsung A7 10 inch I bough about a year ago, same price range but much much better. Samsung is much slower, the UI much less responsive.
The Overall performance of this tab is amazing for its price as it’s using Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU and 4+128GB storage, it’s smooth when streaming and watching Youtube videos.
