Software is the make-or-break feature for tablets, and the Honor-designed Magic UI sadly falls down onto the ‘break’ side of things. Despite running Android 12 with Honor’s Magic UI 6.1 skin plastered over the top, the Pad 8 sadly isn’t much different. Multi-window support is welcome, but otherwise it functions exactly the same as any Android smartphone. The app icons are also scaled to the resolution of the display rather than the size, and they look far too big on the homescreen as a result. The Pad 8 features a massive, 12 Inch, IPS LCD, flat screen display with a tiny 7.2mm bezel giving you a fantastic amount of screen real estate to work with, around 87% screen-to-body ratio making it really good for watching films or reading comics.
Launched at IFA 2022, the Pad 8 is Honor’s latest tablet and I have been testing it ahead of the official release. The Honor Pad 8 is a good tablet in all the key areas, and you’re likely to get hours and hours of entertainment if you choose to buy it.Supports a maximum of 22.5W wired charging using the 22.5W HONOR charger and cable. Actual charging speed The Honor Pad 8 is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chipset alongside 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. This is a low-cost processor favoured by budget smartphone makers including Xiaomi and Realme, and in practical terms it doesn’t do anything remotely special.
DTS:X is an object-based audio codec that delivers enhanced multi-dimensional, virtual surround sound improving your immersion and making your watching experience feel more like a home cinema.
Still, at least the Honor Pad 8 isn’t hamstrung with a restricted version of Android like Huawei’s mobile offerings. All the Google apps are there, and the entire Play Store library is at your fingertips. There weren’t any bloatware apps pre-installed on my review device, either, which is always a big bonus. In my experience, the Pad 8 held up well with most standard apps, and gave a generally smooth experience thanks to its Snapdragon 680 chipset. This experience actually stands in good contrast to one of its peers, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 which irritated me quite a bit with its occasional stuttering.
The APP must support this feature, the actual effect will depend on the APP, the feature will update The Honor Pad 8’s specifications get it off to a strong start against the iPad. The display is larger, for starters, measuring 12in from corner to corner, with a total resolution of 2,000 x 1,200. The tablet’s base storage is doubled, too, with a generous 128GB; there’s twice as much RAM at 6GB; and faster 66W charging as well. This folio tablet case fully covers your Honor Pad 8, and it's designed with a foldable front cover that enhances using your device. This tri-fold style case facilitates web surfing and media viewing on your Honor Pad 8.All magic UI devices of course also support the full range of Google services such as the Play Store. This feature is only available for HONOR Smartphones running Magic UI 3.0 and above version. If you have Compared to many other Android tablets on the market, the Honor Tab 8 is pretty large, and you’re certainly not going to be using it one-handed. There are a few apps that come pre-installed whether you like them or not, including the likes of Facebook and Booking.com, but there aren’t so many as to get in your way. What I did feel was that there was a general scaling problem, with elements from certain apps just seeming a bit too enlarged for the display; this is just an aesthetic complaint rather than anything more serious though. It also supports Honor RAM TURBO technology, which is also present in the Honor X8 and Honor 70. This feature provides an additional 2 Gb of virtual RAM to help with multitasking and taxing applications so you can run apps smoothly.
