I bought this ipad initially to use when travelling as i spend weekends at a different location to my home. However it soon became clear that this device was becoming my go to Ipad all the time. I also have a 10th generation standard sized ipad. When i look at youtube reviews of this product there are quite a few critical reviews that talk about the lack of a 120Hz refresh rate and that the screen is only 500 nits. However if like me you use your device for web browsing, watching youtube and Prime or netflix this device is superb. It has a fast processor in it the A17 chip, however unless you think you are going to try and multitask with photo and video editing or want to play the latest graphic hungry games, you really dont need to worry. The battery life lasts all day and beyond, as someone who is retired i always charge overnight irrespective of how much charge is left when i go to bed. It’s then setup for whatever the next day brings. I also use the apple pencil pro on my device, im a user of goodnotes and this works great with the ipad mini… 15 people found this helpful

The Gadget Tree Fire 11 Tablet is a great budget option. Its 11-inch HD screen is good for streaming, reading, and browsing. It’s lightweight, sturdy, and handles everyday tasks like apps and videos well. The battery lasts all day, and it works smoothly with Alexa and Gadget Tree services. However, the app store is limited compared to regular Android tablets. If you use Gadget Tree a lot, this tablet offers great value for the price. 5 people found this helpful

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. Display Along with price this was the main reason I bought this tablet. The 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 screen is not OLED and it’s IPS LCD and the 60Hz refresh rate may be also a slight downside for those used to higher-end tablets, but it’s perfectly clear and acceptable for the price. There’s also screen protector factory installed. Saved me hassle of installing one. But had it for 2 weeks or so and already seeing micro scratches on the screen protector. But can easily install another one if it gets too bad. 2. Portability and Build Weighing just over 300g 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. People with larger hands can easily hold with one hand from the back. It’s light because it’s made from light metal at the back and plastic on top and bottom of the tablet, presumably for better signal. It does feel solid enough to take a few knocks. I always put a case on my mobiles and tablets. There are limited selection of cases for this tablet and I’ve bought and reviewed AKNICI Case for ALLDOCUBE iPlay 60 Mini Pro Tablet on here. The USB-C port for charging is at the top of the tablet for some reason but doesn’t cause any issues. 3. OS and Performance The 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 which 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 which I can’t get used to. I still prefer buttons. 4. Expandable Storage The 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 Life Battery 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. 4G LTE Capability The tablet includes 4G 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 Money I 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. My criteria was a low cost high resolution 8 inch tablet. Most of the 8 inch ones had low resolution like my Samung Tab A9 at 1340×800 resolution. The other higher resolution ones I researched included: • iPad Mini 7 (2266×1488): A great device, but the high price made it out of my budget, and not Android. • Lenovo Legion Tab Y700 (2560×1600): Another great 8-inch Android tablet more for gamers 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. Also too powerful for my needs. • Update 19/02/2025 – DOALLCUDE iPlay 60 Mini Turbo: This Turbo version is very similar to the Pro version but with new processor bump and video output feature via USB-C. There maybe more features but I saw this on Gadget Tree UK for about £180 which is more than the Pro version. For my needs I’ll still stick with the Pro version. 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 be easily switched to other launchers like Nova Launcher to enhance usability. • Speakers and Cameras: Speakers are average quality, which is fine for Youtube and videos. I don’t use this tablet for music, and also don’t intend to use the camera. Conclusion: The ALLDOCUBE iPlay 60 Mini Pro is a fantastic tablet. 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. 9 people found this helpful

January 2025 Great update from the previous iPad mini. Had been using the larger basic iPad. This is much lighter and easier to hold. Vibrant screen, no lag, works well for browsing; great for when I use it with Zwift for indoor cycling or running. Highly recommended.

The Gadget Tree Fire Max 11 is a solid choice for those looking for an affordable yet capable tablet. With its large 11-inch display and efficient performance, it stands out in the budget tablet market. Pros: Big, Vibrant, The 11-inch screen with a resolution of 2000 x 1200 pixels offers sharp and colorful visuals, making it great for streaming and browsing. The sleek, modern design with a slim profile and rounded corners makes it comfortable to hold and visually appealing. Powered by a Mediatek MTK8188J processor, it handles everyday tasks smoothly and efficiently. Offers up to 14 hours of battery life, which is impressive for a tablet in this price range. Cons: The tablet runs on Gadget Tree’s Fire OS, which means it lacks access to the Google Play Store and some popular apps. The device charges relatively slowly, which can be inconvenient if you’re in a hurry. Overall, the Gadget Tree Fire Max 11 is a great value for its price, especially for Gadget Tree Prime subscribers who can take full advantage of the Gadget Tree ecosystem. Its large display and solid performance make it a good option for media consumption and basic productivity tasks. 9 people found this helpful
