Top 7 Best 8-Inch Tablets Tested | 2020 Edition By My Next Tablet

My favorite tablets are 8-inch tablets and I reviewed pretty much every 8-inch tablet that was released in the last couple of years. I'm Andrea for my next table comm and here are the best 8-inch tablets. You can buy right now before we start, as I said, I reviewed pretty much every 8-inch tablet, except for one, and I will get to that. One later you can find my reviews in the description below, and then you can also find a link to my next tablet, comm, where we've got a list with the currently the best 8-inch tablets out there. So, even if you're watching this video in a year from now or even longer, you can always find our current recommendations in that list. In the description below the best 8-inch tablet you can buy right now is the Apple iPad Mini 5 that was released in 2019.

It has a 7.9-inch screen to be exact, but that's very close to 8 inches right. As I said, the iPad Mini 5 has a 7.9-inch IPS screen, and it has an aspect ratio of 4 by 3, which is not ideal for movies, but which is a very nice aspect: ratio for reading websites with or to read books with them so on. It has a resolution of 2048 by 1536 pixels. So this is a very sharp screen. It also serves every bright screen with 500 nits, and it is brighter than every other 8 inch head that I reviewed inside one's another 8 worth Bionic processors, which also means that it is the fastest 8-inch tablet you can buy right now.

It is supported by three gigabytes of RAM and you can choose between 64 or 256 gigabytes of storage. In my standard battery test, the last at 12 I was in 15 minutes for this test. I'm always looping an HD video locally at medium brightness and activated Wi-Fi, and that goes for all of my reviews. Yep at mini v does have a metal body, and it does feel very high-end. However, it does not look very high-end because it has the same with iPad.

Mini design was pretty big black bezels around the screen, so it does feel very high-end, and it is where we, where did it just, doesn't look as modern anymore. It still has a lightning connector, but it also still has the headphone jack, which is a positive thing below the screen. Is the touch ID fingerprint sensor which works fantastic, and you can use the iPad Mini five with the first Apple Pencil, so the original Apple Pencil, as you can also use with the iPad Air, or this than that iPad and the Apple Pencil works great, of course, but you've got to buy it separately. The iPad Mini is running iPadOS, including all these standard features of iPadOS. You can connect a mouse by now, that's quite multitasking and the files up.

Of course, the iPad Mini 5 is the best 8-inch tablet you can buy right now. It's only real downside is the design. It is very well a bit, but it does look a bit. Oh, it. Sadly, there's no premium Android tablet right now that I can really comfortably recommend the next best one, which is the premium tablet, is the Huawei immediate pad m58, which is a bit older and the Huawei media pad m6 8, which I did not review, because you can only get it in China or through import shops in most countries, at least, so I did review the Huawei media pad m58 and even though it's a bit older, it is still the fastest 8-inch android tablet.

You can buy right now, and it does have many premium features. For instance, it has a very pretty 8.4-inch IPS screen with a very high resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels inside the media, pad m58 runs a queuing, 960 processors. This tablet used to be the fastest and what habit you can buy for quite a while until the Galaxy Tab s 4 was released back then, if you're getting the immediate pad m6 8, which has the same screen and the same body. By the way you will get the Q in 980, which is a bit faster ship. The tablet has 4 gigabytes of RAM and a 32 64 or 128 gigabyte internal storage.

In my standard battery tester one time was 11 hours, we're getting a full metal body here which feels very high-end, and it looks much more modern than the iPad Mini 5. It also has 2 USB, C, port and 2, pretty good speakers. There's no pen support, though it does everything up in scanner which sits underneath the screen. The immediate pad m58 is running Android.8, yes, is that it's a bit older I, don't forget any major updates anymore and the media Pat m-68 is running Android n9, but because of the sole of us-china trade was saying you won't get it with any Google apps. You can install some of them, but Google is actually not recommending that I'm not sure how secure that is.

So the Huawei media that m58 was the m-68 which I did not test. These are the best premium Android tablets you can buy right now, but again they are a bit older. So I would strongly suggest you to check out the iPad Mini 5, if you're in the market, for a very premium tablet. The next tablet on this list is the Samsung Galaxy Tab, an 8.4 2020, which I did not review, yet I'm. Only putting this on this list to make this list complete.

It hasn't been announced for the rest of the world, yet only for the United States and that's why I haven't been able to order it. Yet it does promise an 8.4 inch, IPS HD screen, Full HD screen and an external 7904 processors, which places it in the middle class has three gigabytes of RAM 32, gigabyte of storage, a very modern design, and it is running Android 9, again, I didn't review yet, but check out this channel and my next update calm, because chances are I have reviewed it by the time you're watching it and yeah. It looks very promising, and it is certainly next up on the list as long as there's no huge issue with it. The next step is that I can super comfortably recommend I, really love. It is the Samsung Galaxy Tab, an 8.0 with s-pen, that's the SMP 200 or P 205. Sadly, this tablet with S Pen, has been only released in a couple of countries.

It hasn't been released in Europe, and it hasn't been released in the United States, which is really sad because, when I review that I really enjoyed using it, it has an 8-inch IPS screen with a full HD resolution of 1920 by 1200, and it is a pretty nice screen. It's running in Enos 7,000 v processors, which is a decent middle-class ship that is supported by three gigabytes of RAM, and it's 32 gigabyte, internal storage, nothing for high-end gaming, but certainly for mid-range to low-end gaming. The battery life is not that amazing. It got nine point five hours in my standard test, and it does have for plastic body, but it is quite well bird, and it does have a USB-C port, no fingerprint scan. Although the s-pen is included out of the box, you don't have to buy separately, and it works very well as we are used to from the S pen's from Samsung.

It supports all these standard. S Pen features that Samsung has been including in their UI, so it is running Android, 9 out of the box, and I'm sure we'll get an update to Android 10. Usually the Galaxy Tab 8 tablets are getting 2 updates, but I can't promise anything, of course, because I am NOT Samsung yeah. This is really one of my favorite 8-inch tablets, the S Pen works great, but yes, sadly, chances are pretty high that you won't be able to get it easily. The next tablet that you might not be able to get as easily depending on where you live, is the Huawei immediate, at M site, light 8, which is a mid-range 8-inch tablet that was only released in a couple of countries like India Thailand and so on.

Just an 8-inch IPS screen with a full HD resolution of 1920 by 1200, and it's a pretty nice HD Full HD screen it's running was in queue in 710 processors, which is very similar to the Enos I mentioned for the Samsung tablets. You can get it with 3 to 4 gigabytes of RAM and with the 32 gigabyte to 64, gigabyte storage and my standard battery test that cut at one time of 11.5 hours, I like that we're getting a mostly metal body here. It feels quite nice, but there's no fingerprint scanner. Unlike with the standard media pad m58 without C light, it is running Ever to 9. However, out of the box, which certainly is a plus point compared to the higher-end and 5a things immediate at m5 light 8 is a great alternative to both these Samsung tablets.

I mentioned. If those are not available in your country. It's a nice mid-range tablet. The next standard on this list is the Lenovo tab m8, which I really enjoyed it's a lower end to mid-range tablet. But it's a pretty nice 8-inch tablet.

You can get versions with an HD screen and with the full HD screen, I reviewed the HD version, which is a bit cheaper. Both have an 8 inch, IPS screen and again the HD version has 1280 by 800 pixel and the full HD version 1920 by 1200 pixels. The HD version has a MediaTek a.22 processor, which is okay for low-end gaming, and you can play pop sham ova and so on, but only really with the lowest settings. The full HD version has a bit better p22 T processor, from media tech as well. You can get versions with 2 to 3 gigabytes of RAM and a 16 to 32 gigabyte storage.

In my bad retest, it heavily performed very well with 20 3.5 hours, it does have a metal body, and it feels very high and surprisingly high-end, almost similar to an iPad Mini, even though it is much, much cheaper. So the build quality of this tablet it's much better than what surprised suggests it is running almost pure and what 9 is pretty much vanilla, Android, there's some minor customizations that you can throw away, though you can install or deactivate them. Lenovo has usually been releasing one update for the high-end tablets in the past, since this is a cheaper tablet, I'm, not sure if this work at any updates. So of all, this is a great mid-range to low-end tablet and yeah I really enjoyed using see Lenovo tab m8 by the way it has about my level of l3, which means you couldn't watch Netflix in HD resolution. But since the screen is so small I, don't think that's that big of a deal in this case next on the list is another Samsung Galaxy Tab a8 of 0 SMT 290, it's an 8 inch and whatever, but it's a low-end tablet.

It's similar to the Lenovo. It is noticeably weaker than the S Pen version or than the 8.4-inch tablet that was announced in the United States. Furthermore, it does have an 8-inch screen, but only with an HD resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels. Furthermore, it is running a car comes Networking 429. So again the certainly is not a gaming tablet, certainly not a high-end gaming tablet.

It has 2 gigabytes of RAM and a 32 gigabyte internal storage. The battery life was pretty good with 13.5 hours. In my standard test it does have a mostly metal body, but it does not fear that high-end, because the frame is plastic but yeah. It's fine, the big quality is ok, it is running and what 9, including one UI from Samsung of course, and as I said in the past, the galaxy to have a tablet usually have gotten too big updates and already was an announcement for this tablet to get Android 10 again I'm, not speaking for Samsung I, can't guarantee you that if we will get any updates but based on the past, it should get around to updates. So it is a decent mid-range to lower end tablet.

It's not amazing, but it's fine, and again you probably will get two updates. The cheapest 8-inch tablet that I can comfortably recommend is the Amazon Fire HD 8 it is disingenuous the cheapest tablets that I can confidently recommend it costs under $100 and under 100 euros, and for that it offers quite a decent screen and quite a decent performance. So I think if you don't have that high expectations and just want a very simple tablet, then this is a pretty good choice. The Amazon Fire HD 8 has an 8-inch screen. It's an IPS panel with 1280 by 800 pixels, so it does have an HD screen, not a Full HD one inside once a 1.3 gigahertz, MediaTek, quad-core, processor, Amazon, doesn't say what it is. It is OK for high-end gaming.

Certainly it does have 1.5 gigabytes of RAM, which is quite low, of course, and actually there are no possibilities of having real Made tossing. You can't open two apps side by side with this tablet. It does have 16 to 32 gigabytes of storage, and my battery test was pretty good with 14.5 hours. Now it does have a full plastic body, and it does feel cheaper than the other 8-inch tablets. I mentioned here because of that, but it is worth it an Amazon says it is very robust, and it does seem very robust, but it does not feel high-end.

Of course, it is running Amazon's version of android, which means you've got fast and direct access to all the content from Amazon, including prime video, audible, audiobooks and so on, and the Amazon Appstore. However, that also means that the Google Play Store, including YouTube Gmail Chrome, are not pre-installed. You can install them yourself, it's a bit of work and I, wouldn't recommend your grandmother doing it alone. Unless she's, a very computer, savvy and yeah, you can install those, and I always install so Google Play Store on my Amazon tablets, but there are some reports that Amazon gave towards a German newspaper that it might have ruined your warranty. So yeah you will be responsible for insulting the place to yourself, as I said, it's the cheapest 8-inch tablet that I can comfortably recommend and I.

Think it's a great tablet that you can just throw in the back seat in the car, for your kids and so on, because it is very cheap all right. If this has been the best 8-inch tablets, you can buy right now.
