Honor Pad X8b deals

The Honor Pad X8b is a budget 11-inch Android tablet built around one idea: endurance. Its 10,100mAh battery is the sort of capacity you normally see in tablets costing far more, and Honor quotes roughly 22 hours of video playback and up to 97 days on standby, which makes it a sensible choice for a family device that lives in a drawer between long journeys. The rest of the specification is sensibly modest. The 11-inch screen runs at 1920 x 1200 with a 90Hz refresh rate, so scrolling feels smoother than the usual budget 60Hz panel, and TUV Rheinland low blue light and flicker-free certification plus an eBook mode make it easier on the eyes for long reading sessions. A 6nm Snapdragon chip with Adreno 610 graphics handles streaming, browsing and school work rather than demanding games. Four speakers give it more presence than the stereo pairs most cheap tablets manage, storage expands via microSD up to 2TB, and Honor's Kids mode adds parental controls, time limits and app management. At 499g and 7.25mm in a metal chassis, it feels sturdier than the price suggests.
