Very good Android 14 tablet
As an Apple and PC user an android tablet always was needed for various reasons. It had to be low priced and offer most Android important features. A handheld possibility was preferred as were LTE, decent screen and processor.After looking, reading reviews and trying a few, it came down to this Iplay 60 pro mini during Prime Day.This device is impressive in all ways: size, screen, sound via BT with earbuds, battery life and features such face recognition, BT quick response, etc…Now the questionable: likely no updates and no support thus no much security. WIFI is really good and no issues for streaming videos or live feeds.Since gaming isn’t part of the equation this device does everything wanted and at a great low price.LTE/4G set with T-Mobile Sim works perfectly once T-Mobile support understood (and it took some time as store and phone support believed this unknown brand could do it) what I was trying to accomplish: making and receiving calls part of my Magenta plan for $10 additional!For now an incredible little and convenient tablet. Highly recommended tablet as it’s better than Samsung A9 and Xiaomi Pad SE.

Okay tablet, few things would make it great.
I like the size of the 8.4 screen, the helio G99 cpu is fast enough, ram and storage all good. Screen colors look nice and is clear. Having ability to add a sd card is great. I have used this tablet daily since Nov 2023. The bad: Sound quality is tinny, no bass or mids at all. I use a portable Bluetooth speaker stand to overcome the sound quality. The screen is not 100% flat, which makes it impossible to get a glass screen protector to lay correctly. I tried 3 brands and all had issues in same spot where screen is not level, so it is not the screen protector issue. Then there is battery life. For a 5,000 mah battery it should last more than 2 hours. My phone lasts 8 hours watching YouTube only with 5,000 mah battery, this tablet lasts me around 2 hours. I am not even using the speakers, since I use a Bluetooth stand and runs out of battery. Those are the 3 stand out issues than almost breaks it for me. They do send updates over the air about every 3 months which suprised me. But, if you want a compact affordable tablet and don’t care about sound quality, battey life or adding a glass screen protector, it is a good tablet.

The ALLDOCUBE iPlay 60 Mini Pro is an excellent tablet for those seeking a lightweight, high-resolution device, particularly for reading. While it has some limitations, its affordability and impressive display make it a standout choice among compact tablets.Key Highlights:1. DisplayThe 1920×1200 resolution on the 8.4-inch screen is sharp and vibrant, making it perfect for reading eBooks, PDFs, web browsing and Youtube. Compared to my Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 (1340×800 resolution), the difference is very clear – the ALLDOCUBE offers a much more satisfying visual experience. Text and images are clearer, and the high pixel density ensures a comfortable and enjoyable reading experience. The 60Hz refresh rate may be a slight downside for those used to higher-end tablets, but it’s perfectly acceptable for the price.2. PortabilityWeighing under 400g and featuring a slim design, the tablet is easy to carry and hold for extended periods, making it ideal for reading and on-the-go use.3. OS and PerformanceThe Helio G99 processor handles everyday tasks with ease. Since I’m not a gamer, I didn’t need a particularly powerful processor, and this tablet more than meets my needs. The default ALLDOCUBE OS is very close to stock Android but I replaced with Nova Launcher as I was more comfortable with. Also another thing I found annoying is I’m used to Samsung tablets where the back navigation button is on the right. Default back button is on the left. I could not find a satisfactory way to change this. But I think this is more to do with Android 14 than the tablet itself. It does allow you to change to swipe gestures but I can’t get used to. Prefer buttons.4. Expandable StorageThe inclusion of Micro SD card support is a great addition to the already generous 128GB, allowing for expanded storage easily and not costing arm and a leg,5. Battery LifeBattery life is OK so far, lasting a full day easily with moderate use, including reading and browsing web and light Youtube. Time will tell as I’ve only had this for 2 weeks or so at the time of writing review.6. LTE CapabilityThe tablet includes LTE sim support, though I haven’t used this feature yet and unlikely to do it. Prefer to use hotspot with my mobile when data is needed. But it’s a great option for those who want mobile connectivity on the go without a mobile.Value for MoneyI purchased this tablet during the recent Black Friday sales, which made it an even better deal. The quality and performance at this price point are exceptional, especially for those prioritising reading and casual use.Alternatives Considered:I did alot of research before buying this. I compared this tablet to other 8inch tablets:• iPad Mini 7: A great device, but the high price made it out of my budget, and not Android.• Lenovo Legion Tab Y700: Another great 8-inch Android tablet and available to buy internationally but limited by its Chinese ROM, which made it less user-friendly for international users. The UK (Global) version again had a high price and out of my budget.Room for Improvement:• Refresh Rate: The 60Hz refresh rate is acceptable for this price range but doesn’t match higher-end tablets.• ALLDOCUBE OS: The default OS is OK but can easily switched to Nova Launcher to enhance usability.• Speakers and Cameras: Speakers are average quality, which is fine for things like Youtube. I don’t intend to use the camera.Conclusion:The ALLDOCUBE iPlay 60 Mini Pro is a fantastic lightweight tablet for readers and casual users. Its sharp, high-resolution display offers a significant improvement over devices like the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9, delivering a much more satisfying visual experience. The inclusion of Micro SD card support further enhances its versatility.Despite minor trade-offs like the 60Hz refresh rate and average speakers, the tablet’s affordability, portability, and high-resolution display make it an excellent choice. I would easily recommend this tablet to anyone looking for a compact, affordable device for reading and everyday tasks.Time will tell if this tablet is reliable but for now it’s a gem of a tablet.

Ich bin absolut begeistert von meinem neuen 8,4 Zoll-Tablet! Die Größe ist ideal – groß genug für angenehmes Arbeiten, Surfen und Videoschauen, aber gleichzeitig klein genug, um es problemlos in einer Handtasche oder Rucksack mitzunehmen.

Die Akkulaufzeit ist überraschend gut und reicht problemlos für einen ganzen Tag intensiver Nutzung. Auch die Performance überzeugt – Apps starten schnell, Multitasking funktioniert flüssig und die Lautsprecher bieten einen klaren und vollen Sound.Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die handliche Bauweise und das geringe Gewicht, sodass das Tablet auch bei längerer Nutzung nicht unangenehm in der Hand liegt. Insgesamt bietet dieses 8,4 Zoll-Tablet ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und ist die perfekte Wahl für alle, die ein mobiles, aber dennoch leistungsfähiges Gerät suchen.
