The best laptops on Android
XIAOMI Mi Pad 4 Plus - for multimedia content and games
Unusual to see the product Xiaomi with only one option of 4 GB of RAM. However, here you can choose the amount of internal storage - 64 or 128 GB.
The inscription Plus in the name of a 10.1-inch tablet means that it is larger than the usual "four".
Accordingly, the capacity of its battery increased to 8620 mAh. Otherwise, these models do not differ from each other, so all the advantages and disadvantages of Mi Pad 4 and 4+ are divided into two.
Pros:
- Durable metal housing;
- Good 5 and 13 megapixel cameras - both with HDR support, beautifiers and other interesting features;
- The Snapdragon 660 processor with a powerful graphics chip pulls heavy games even at high settings;
- Smooth and stable work, including the program shell itself;
- Two-tier protection - unlocking through a fingerprint scanner and face identification;
- Comfortable night reading mode;
- Excellent built-in speakers with stereo effect;
- Low weight for such a dimensional device - 485 grams;

Minuses:
- Intense heat during demanding games can periodically provoke throttling;
- Lack of flash from the main camera.
HUAWEI Honor Pad 2 - the most balanced tablet
A relatively inexpensive tablet based on the Snapdragon 615 processor can boast a good memory capacity for its class: 3 GB RAM and 32 built-in. For most tasks and entertainment (including watching high definition videos and popular games) this will be enough. The size of the device is also optimal - 8 ″, such a gadget is not hard to wear, and it is comfortable to use it.
Pros:
- A juicy and clear picture with no visible pixels due to the high resolution of the screen of 1920x1200 pixels;

Minuses:
- Long charge - about 5 hours.
LENOVO P8 Plus (TB-8703X) - a good budget for surfing the Internet
The updated Tab3 from Lenovo has finally received an LTE module, and now it can be seriously considered as a good inexpensive tablet. It works on an 8-core Snapdragon 625 processor, but has a slightly reduced memory capacity - 16 GB with 3 GB of RAM. But the 8-inch screen boasts an excellent resolution of 1920x1200 px for its size.
Pros:

The best tablets on Windows
VOYO VBook I7 Plus - Ultrabook Replacement
The advanced 2-in-1 tablet with a diagonal of 12.6 ″ is not a tablet filling. Inside the device is an Intel Core i7 processor (3.5 GHz), and many laptops will envy its memory: the VBook can have from 8 to 16 GB of RAM, plus a 256 GB solid-state drive. All this is complemented by an excellent screen that supports work with the stylus. True, the latter, like the keyboard, will have to be purchased separately.
Pros:
- Metal case with a fully folding stand on the rear panel;
- The screen resolution is 2880x1920 px, which makes the picture very clear;
- A good margin of brightness - the display remains readable in any light;
- Productive Intel graphics (as far as possible in the tablet form factor) draws most modern games well;
- Large selection of connectors - except for two USB 3.0 ports, there is another Type-C and a micro-HDMI output;
- A large battery capacity of 10200 mAh - even with such a powerful filling it will last for 10 hours.
Minuses:
- A rather small weight of 900 grams;
- Very average cameras with a resolution of 2 and 5 megapixels;
- Price 55-65 thousand rubles.
CHUWI Surbook - a budget option for work and leisure
If you don’t like or afford the expensive and frankly raw Microsoft Surface, this “Chinese” will be a good alternative.

The amount of memory according to Chinese standards is standard: a 128 GB ROM is attached to 6 gigabytes of OP with the ability to double this figure with a flash card.
Pros:
- The aluminum case with a metal folding leg is a reasonable solution, since it is hard to hold the tablet on weight;
- Intel's 4-core Apollo Lake N3450 chip is quite fresh and optimal in terms of price-performance ratio;
- Excellent picture quality - in the tablet there is the same matrix from Samsung as in the expensive prototype from Microsoft;

- When you connect the DOC keyboard, the tablet turns into a functional ultrabook running on Windows;
- Work in all major Wi-Fi ranges;
