Logitech Combo Touch review: The default choice
The iPad is now a laptop -- sorta, kinda, with the right keyboard case. Logitech's Combo Touch might be a third-party accessory, but it beats Apple's options.
Huawei MatePad Pro Review: In the iPad’s shadow
The Huawei MatePad Pro is sensibly sized, with a great screen and some convenient features like wireless charging, but it can't compete with the iPad on apps.

The Lenovo Yoga Smart Tab is an Android tablet that stands out in a crowd. It packs useful features into a 10.1-inch device, including a versatile kickstand.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 review: Finally, a good Android 2-in-1
Samsung’s latest tablet is here, and it’s the Galaxy Tab S6. It’s the successor to the Galaxy Tab S4, with worthwhile upgrades like a superior chipset, an S Pen that’s stored magnetically, and a far better keyboard with a built-in trackpad. Is it worth spending $650 on an Android tablet?
Apple iPad 10.2-inch (2019) review: iPadOS makes this a winner
Apple's latest update to its tablet lineup is the iPad, its entry-level slate that costs $330. What's new here over last year's iPad? There's a slightly larger 10.2-inch screen and support for the Smart Connector. But those changes aren't what makes this iPad a winner.
Amazon Fire HD 10 (2019) review: Big screen, big value
It's tough to find a great tablet with a big screen for under $200. But Amazon has managed to put together a compelling package in the Fire HD 10. A sharp screen, long battery life, and fast USB-C charging offer hardware few tablets can in this price range. Prime members especially get a ton of value with included content.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e review
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e excels at what it was designed for — movies, games, browsing, and reading. The amazingly thin and light body is only a part of the appeal, as the stunning 10.5-inch AMOLED screen makes watching it a joy. This is what it’s like to live with.
Amazon Fire HD 10 Kids Edition review: Big screen on a budget
If you're buying a tablet for a child then Amazon's devices should be on your radar. The Amazon Fire HD 10 Kids may be the one to buy for your little cherub. At $200, it offers two years of free replacement for damage, tons of free kid-centered content, and industry-leading parental controls.
Amazon Fire 7 (2019) Review
As the bargain basement model in Amazon’s Fire tablet range, the Fire 7 (2019) and the Fire 7 Kids Edition are amazingly cheap at just $50, but how has Amazon achieved such a low price? I took them for an extended test spin to learn what it can do and uncover the compromises lurking within.
Walmart Onn Android Tablet review
The Walmart Onn Android tablet has the potential to set a fire under Amazon, the current king of the budget tablet market. I tried out the 8-inch Onn tablet to find out exactly what it’s capable of and uncover the compromises that enabled Walmart to achieve such a low price.
Lenovo Yoga Smart Tab hands-on review
The Lenovo Yoga Smart Tab draws inspiration from the company’s previous Android slates, with its unique circular hinge. Harnessing the power of Google Assistant and dual JBL hi-fi speakers, it consolidates what we saw with the previous Alexa-enabled offering into one singular device.
Lenovo Smart Tab P10 review
Why have a fixed smart display when you could have a tablet with a speaker dock? Lenovo answers that question with the Lenovo Smart Tab P10 which is an Android tablet that turns into an Echo Show when docked. It’s affordable and attractive, but some troublesome issues lurk below the surface.
Apple iPad Air review
Apple now has four types of iPads -- the budget iPad, the iPad Mini, the iPad Air, and the iPad Pro. The iPad Air is almost the same as the new iPad Mini, save for screen size. Professionals reluctant about the price of the highest-tier iPad Pro should consider the iPad Air.
iPad Mini review (2019)
Apple’s new iPad Mini has beastly performance, fluid iOS 12 software, and good battery life. It also looks like it came straight out of 2015, because the design hasn’t been changed. The market for small tablets has shrunk, so this is the best you can get if you’re eyeing a small tablet.
Lenovo Smart Tab hands-on review
Got an Amazon Echo Show? Ever want to just take the screen and use it as a tablet in the bedroom? Lenovo’s new Smart Tab lets you do this. It’s an Android tablet you can attach to a Smart Dock to create an Echo Show competitor, complete with Alexa integration. The Echo Show mode can also be triggered without the dock.
Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite hands-on review
Huawei is bringing a tablet to the U.S., and it costs a little less than the $330 iPad. It's not as powerful, but there's a neat fingerprint sensor that can boot a secure environment specifically for children. It arrives in late January, and will be on sale from Amazon and Newegg.
Microsoft Surface Go review
Microsoft has launched the $400 Surface Go to take on both the iPad and the Chromebook in a single device. It’s a bold attempt to appeal to everyone’s needs in a compact, budget-friendly form factor, but can a device this small work as a PC?
Google Pixel Slate review
The Pixel Slate is Google’s answer to the iPad Pro and Surface Pro 6. With Chrome OS and Android at its disposal, the Pixel Slate is a device that has the potential to be the most convincing 2-in-1 device ever made. But with all that ambition, there’s bound to be some problems and hiccups along the way.

Amazon Fire HD 8 review (2018)
For years, Amazon's Fire tablet lineup has been the go-to for great budget tablets. The company's latest offering -- the Fire HD 8 -- maintains its low price tag, but features only modest upgrades over its predecessor. We check out the 2018 Fire HD 8 to see if it's still a great budget tablet you should buy.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 review
Before you purchase Samsung’s newest tablet, the Galaxy Tab S4, you’ll need to figure out exactly what you’re looking for. The Tab S4 delivers a decent tablet and desktop experience, but it doesn’t excel in either. There are plenty of other options on the market, which makes its high price a tough proposition. Here’s our Galaxy Tab S4 review.
Huawei MediaPad M5 Pro review
Huawei’s newest big-screen tablet is a terrible temptation. Its screen is so gorgeous, and the clever design completely lends itself to a device to binge-watch your favorite show. However, when you’ve finished, what else can it do? Does a high-end tablet still have a place in the world now our phones are so capable? We find out.
Apple iPad (2018) review
Whether you need a large-screen device for work or play, your best option is Apple’s new iPad. It has a good-looking screen, great battery life, fluid software with multi-tasking features, and it works with the fantastically-precise Apple Pencil. For $330, it’s a steal.
Amazon Fire HD 10 (2017) review
Amazon’s new Fire HD 10 introduces hands-free Alexa support, and it improves in some key areas, but it isn’t without compromise.
ReMarkable tablet review
The ReMarkable tablet’s screen may feel like paper, but that doesn’t make up for its bugs and missing features.
Asus Transformer Pro T304 Review
In our Asus Transformer Pro T304 review, we assess a machine that looks like the Surface Pro but offers lower performance, better connectivity, and a lower price.
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 2 review
Lenovo has updated its durable ThinkPad X1 Tablet with the latest components, but kept the same design. Can it stack up to Microsoft’s new Surface Pro and other recently released 2-in-1s?
Apple iPad Pro 10.5-inch review
Our Apple iPad Pro 10.5-inch review reveals a simple truth: This is the best tablet you can buy, excelling in nearly every category.
Amazon Fire HD 8 (2017) review
Looking for a cheap tablet? Amazon’s Fire HD 8 isn’t as snazzy as an iPad, but it offers a polished experience and an HD screen for under $100.
Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 review
Most will know Xiaomi for its smartphones, but it also makes Android tablets, and we’ve been testing out its latest -- the Mi Pad 3. It faces some stiff competition, including the new lower priced iPad, and we’ve found out how it compares.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 review
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S3 is a promising Android tablet that comes with the famed S Pen. It has a high price, but it also has the best screen we’ve seen on an Android to date.
Lenovo Yoga Book review
Lenovo’s Yoga Book is a bold new idea: a super slim tablet with a digital keyboard and a neat stylus. Is it worth your money, or is this a good idea gone bad?
