The Honor Pad X8a 256GB is Honor's 2024 tablet featuring a 11.0 inches, 350.9 cm2 (~81.0% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm SM6225 Snapdragon 680 4G (6 nm) chipset. It comes with a 8300 mAh battery. At AED 649 in the UAE and ₹14,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Honor Pad X8a 256GB excels with its 11.0-inch 90Hz TFT LCD screen, delivering smooth scrolling and ample real estate for media consumption, though the 400-nit brightness and 206 ppi density limit outdoor usability. Powered by an octa-core Kryo 265 chipset and Android 14 with MagicOS 8, it handles multitasking and streaming without lag, but lacks stylus support, ruling out note-taking or drawing. At 495g, it’s portable but feels heavy for prolonged one-handed use. Battery endurance of 133 hours is exceptional, but the absence of cellular limits it to Wi-Fi-only scenarios. In UAE at AED 649, it’s worth it because the screen and battery outperform rivals in this price bracket. In India at ₹14999, it’s overpriced — competitors offer similar screens with better build or cellular options for less. Skip if you need mobile data or pen input.
