ALLDOCUBE M5X 4G Tablet, 10.1 Inch 2560 x 1600 JDI Screen Tablet PC with SIM Card, MTK X27 Deca Core, 4GB RAM, 64GB ROM, Android 8.0, 2MP/5MP, Silver

After returning 4 tablets (not Alldocube ones!) I was beginning to despair of ever finding a budget tablet that would suit my needs. However this one is almost perfect! A decent screen, and surprisingly, the speakers aren't bad either (for a tablet). It is fast, and with 4GB / 64GB memory, it has plenty of storage (I also purchased a 128GB SD card for it as well to ensure I have plenty of storage). It plays all my media apps (Netflix, BT TV, Amazon Video, Emby, Spotify, etc.) without any problems, and with a crisp and bright HD image. The screen is nice and clear when using the Kindle app for reading. It has dual sim card slots for mobile data (I'll be using this feature in a couple of weeks when I go on holiday), and the battery life is quite acceptable for the way I am using it. Even though at £169.99 - at the time I bought it - it was a bit over my budget, for the spec it is exceptional value.There are only 3 things that stop it getting the full 5* from me: 1) It has Oreo 8.0, not 8.1. There are cheaper tablets that have the more recent version, and it would have been nice to see this tablet with it too; 2) It doesn't have a mini HDMI port, and 3) it doesn't come with a UK plug (in fairness, this is stated in the description but I admit I missed it when I ordered. No big deal for me as I have several USB plug units, but be aware you might need to buy one).None of these however detract from the overall quality and performance of the tablet. Highly recommended.
