display
8.7-inch TFT, 179 ppiThe 800×1340 resolution and 179-pixel density mean text is readable at normal distance but edges won't be sharp compared to phones or newer tablets, and colors won't be as rich as an IPS screen.
performance
Helio P22T, 2–4GB RAMThis 12-nanometer processor handles email, browsing, and light apps, but struggles with heavy games or multitasking; the 2GB base model will force app reloads when switching between several open windows.
battery
5100 mAh, roughly 8–10 hoursWith typical mixed use (web, video, reading), you'll get a full day without charging; heavy video playback drains it faster, light use extends it.
charging
15W wired, roughly 2–3 hoursA 15W charger will take about two to three hours to reach 100 percent from empty, so plan accordingly if you need the tablet ready quickly.
camera
8MP main, 2MP frontThe 8MP rear camera with autofocus captures acceptable daylight photos and 1080p video for casual recording; the 2MP selfie is basic and best for video calls, not self-portraits.
connectivity
Wi-Fi 5, LTE optional, Bluetooth 5.0Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is not here, so wireless speed lags newer tablets; the cellular model (LTE, GPS) suits travel, while the Wi-Fi-only model needs a hotspot.
