CONCLUSIONS
Score
Opinion
After reviewing the Teclast P80X tablet we can say that it is an interesting product for the price, in this model we have the interesting Unisoc SC9863A SoC with Cortex-A55 cores that have a very controlled consumption but is also somewhat limited in graphic power , we have a basic performance Wifi b/g/n and we have integrated Bluetooth adapter. At the level of finishes this tablet is quite basic although the plastic case is quite resistant and lightweight.
The Teclast P80X has an IPS 8″screen that we can use comfortably indoors, where it suffers a lot is in bright environments due to the lack of light power. One of the strengths of this tablet is the battery life, this model we It has surprised by the duration in sleep mode and the little it consumes in normal use, certainly a good SoC in this aspect.
This tablet stands out for the battery life and low price, a model that can be interesting for a regular domestic use for multimedia playback or for our children.

Thanks for your review. Please could you report, for p80x and for future tablets, if the display is fully laminated and if the GMS Google certification is present?
Hello, Is there a way to connect the Teclast p80x to a MicroUSB-Ethernet adapter?
I think this can be verified in settings->network->Plus->Ethernet (it’s ok if the option is present or greyed, but KO if it is absent)
Thanks in advance for your reply
